New leaks suggest OnePlus is working on the Ace 7 for China with an active cooling fan system.

According to a report by Gizmochina citing tipster Digital Chat Station, OnePlus is reportedly preparing to launch a new smartphone in China later this month, believed to be the OnePlus Ace 7. The tipster shared a leaked schematic showing a built-in cooling fan with a dual-airflow design.

The cooling system is expected to target both the processor area and the rear panel to maintain high performance and control surface temperatures. It is said to direct hot air sideways away from the user's hands while releasing cooler air downward.

The leak mentions an AI temperature sensor, proprietary patented technology, and optimizations to reduce fan noise and dust ingress. The phone is rumored to run on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip and could deliver gaming performance that challenges devices with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, according to the tipster.

Expected specs include a 6.78-inch OLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 185Hz refresh rate, a 16-megapixel front camera, and a dual rear setup with a 200-megapixel primary and a 50-megapixel secondary camera. It is expected to run ColorOS 17 based on Android 17 and pack a 9,000mAh battery with 100W or 120W charging. Two model numbers, PMS110 and PYF110, were spotted on Geekbench with 16GB RAM and 1TB storage, and at least one could be the Ace 7.

So far, there is no information about the OnePlus Ace 7's availability in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, or the UAE, and no local prices have been announced. We will add store prices once the phone arrives in the region.
