Although the EEC certification does not reveal hardware details, a DevCheck hardware listing for the Infinix X6766 has reportedly provided some possible specifications.

According to the reported listing, the Infinix Note 70 Pro could be powered by a Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset. The phone is also tipped to feature a 6.78-inch display with a resolution of 1208 × 2644 pixels and a refresh rate of up to 144Hz.

The smartphone is expected to include a 50-megapixel primary rear camera with optical image stabilisation (OIS). It could also pack a 7,000mAh battery and offer 8GB of RAM with 256GB of internal storage.

If these leaked specifications prove accurate, the larger battery could be one of the key upgrades over the predecessor.

OnePlus Ace 7 Leak Reveals Dual-Airflow Cooling Fan Design for Gaming

0

Highlights

  • A new leak suggests the OnePlus Ace 7 could feature a built‑in cooling fan with a dual‑airflow design to manage heat during gaming sessions.
  • The system reportedly directs air towards the processor and rear panel, using AI temperature sensors and patented tech to reduce throttling and fan noise.
  • It is rumoured to include a 6.78‑inch 1.5K OLED display with 185Hz refresh rate, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, 200MP camera, 9,000mAh battery and 100W/120W charging.

OnePlus Ace 7 has appeared in a new leak that points to a built-in cooling fan with a dual-airflow design. A schematic shared by tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo shows how the cooling system could manage heat by directing airflow towards different parts of the phone. Here’s what we know so far.

OnePlus Ace 7 Schematic Shows Dual-Airflow Cooling Design

According to Digital Chat Station, the leaked schematic illustrates a cooling system with two separate airflow paths. One path reportedly directs air towards the processor area to help control its temperature, while the other is designed to reduce heat buildup on the phone’s rear panel.

The setup is said to draw cooler air in through the bottom of the device and release hot air through its side. This arrangement could help move heat away from the user’s hands during extended gaming sessions.

Since the tipster has not directly named the phone, the schematic’s association with the OnePlus Ace 7 remains unconfirmed.

How OnePlus Ace 7’s Built-In Cooling Fan Could Work?

Digital Chat Station claims that Ace 7’s cooling system could play an important role in maintaining performance. The fan could help keep temperatures under control and reduce thermal throttling by directing airflow towards the processor and other heat-sensitive areas. This could allow the phone to sustain higher performance for longer periods instead of reducing processing power when temperatures rise.

The cooling technology is also reportedly equipped with an AI temperature sensor and proprietary patented technology. DCS further claims that OnePlus is working on optimisations to minimise fan noise and limit dust entering the device.

However, these claims have not been tested in real-world conditions.

OnePlus Ace 7 Expected Specifications

Some reports have hinted at several possible specifications for the OnePlus Ace 7. The phone is expected to feature an OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and a 185Hz refresh rate. If accurate, the high refresh rate could offer smoother visuals in supported games and while navigating the interface. Here is a summary of the rumoured specifications:

OnePlus Ace 7 rumoured specs
Display 6.78-inch OLED, 1.5K resolution
Refresh Rate 185Hz
Chipset Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5
Rear Camera 200MP primary + 50MP secondary
Front Camera 16MP
OS ColorOS 17 based on Android 17
Battery 9,000mAh
Charging 100W or 120W
Cooling System Built-in fan with dual-airflow design

Could the OnePlus Ace 7 Launch in India as the OnePlus 16R?

There is speculation that the OnePlus Ace 7 could make its way to India under the OnePlus 16R name. However, there is no official confirmation that the two phones are the same device.

OnePlus has not announced an India launch or confirmed a rebranding plan. We can expect more concrete answers on the possibility of the Ace 7 becoming the OnePlus 16R.

OnePlus Ace 7 Launch Timeline and Expected Price

As of now, there has been no official announcement on the exact launch date of the Ace 7.

OnePlus has also not revealed the phone’s expected price, final retail design or availability outside China. Its potential launch in India including under the OnePlus 16R name but remains speculative.
