OnePlus Ace 5 Will Pack Significantly Bigger Battery in a Slimmer Body

OnePlus Ace 5 is scheduled to launch in China on December 26 (today) and will also debut as the OnePlus 13R in the global markets early next year. Ahead of its anticipated unveiling, the Chinese company has confirmed a key aspect of the purported smartphone — its battery capacity. OnePlus says it will be equipped with a significantly larger battery than its predecessor. However, this won’t affect its form factor and the OnePlus Ace 5 is confirmed to be even thinner than the last-generation model.

In a post on the Chinese social media platform Weibo, OnePlus shared details about the battery capacity and the change in size of the OnePlus Ace 5. As per the company, it will feature a 6,400mAh battery which can deliver up to 23 hours of video playback. This means an increase of approximately 900mAh over the 5,500mAh capacity of the OnePlus Ace 4.

However, this does not mean that the purported smartphone will get thicker. Instead, it is claimed to have a slimmer body than its predecessor. The company says it will have a thickness of 8mm, compared to the 8.8mm thickness of the preceding model.

OnePlus has also confirmed that the smartphone will come with support for 100W SuperVOOC charging.
