OnePlus Ace, Nord CE 2 Lite 5G Renders Leaked Ahead of April Debut

OnePlus Ace is set to debut in China on Thursday as the company’s first smartphone with support for 150W fast charging. The handset is tipped to feature a MediaTek Dimensity 8100 SoC and is expected to debut in India as the OnePlus 10R, alongside the OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G on April 28. Ahead of the launch of both the OnePlus Ace and the OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G, official-looking renders of the handsets have surfaced online. The company has also revealed that the upcoming OnePlus 10R will be available in two charging variants in India.

Noted tipster Evan Blass (@evleaks) has shared detailed renders of both the OnePlus Ace and the OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G on Tuesday. The OnePlus Ace is shown to sport a triple rear camera setup and a centre-aligned hole punch cutout for the selfie camera — for the first time on a OnePlus phone — while the renders suggest it will come without the company’s alert slider. The bottom of the phone shows a single firing speaker and a USB Type-C port, without a 3.5mm headphone jack. Meanwhile, the OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G is also shown to sport a triple rear camera setup and a left-aligned hole-punch cutout for the front-facing camera.

Meanwhile, OnePlus announced on Twitter that the upcoming OnePlus 10R will be available in two SuperVOOC fast charging variants. The OnePlus 10R will offer 150W and 80W SuperVOOC charging support, according to the company. The Chinese smartphone manufacturer is yet to reveal whether the OnePlus 10R will offer two different battery capacities like the Realme GT Neo 3 — a 150W fast charging model with a 4,500mAh battery and an 80W fast charging variant with a 5,000mAh battery.
