After certain buzz surrounding the global release of the OnePlus 10 Pro, the brand moved on with the Chinese reveal of the OnePlus Ace. The handset is a slightly rebadged Realme GT Neo 3 and also reached India as the OnePlus 10R. Apart from the obvious design differences, it bags nearly the same specs as Realme smartphones. This shouldn’t be a surprise in these times when OnePlus is basically an Oppo sub-brand. The Chinese OnePlus Ace is about to get a new variant dubbed OnePlus Ace Racing Edition. The name may suggest a faster variant, but in fact, we’re about to see a more affordable one. The device will also bring a very OnePlus-esque design element that some legacy fans will certainly notice.
Today, the tipster Evan Blass in partnership with 91Mobiles has revealed an image of the upcoming OnePlus Ace Racing Edition. The Racing Edition will bring obvious design changes as well as specifications differences. As per the leaked image, we can see what looks like a soft back that brings back some memories of the company’s sandstone finishes. It’s not so aggressive, but clearly resembles the sandstone design on the older OnePlus smartphones. Worth noting, that this variant already passed through TENAA and has some of its specs details revealed.
The leaked image also confirms a square-shaped camera design that falls in line with the OnePlus 10 Pro design language. The big difference, however, is that the camera island follows the same color and material used in the rest of the back. Apparently, the camera does not protrude, unlike recent releases. There are still subtle lines to separate the camera island from the rest of the back.
