OnePlus Turbo Will Break OnePlus' Current Records in Battery Capacity

OnePlus is another brand heavily investing in Si-C Battery technologies, with some capacities that challenge logic. The new material's ability to store more energy without being bulky is allowing brands to maintain the usual footprint of regular smartphones, while increasing the capacity of batteries to unprecedented levels. OnePlus recently unveiled its OnePlus Ace 6T with a large 8,300mAh battery. This very same device landed globally as the OnePlus 15R. Now, a new report suggests that the brand's upcoming OnePlus Turbo will come with the largest battery in the brand's history.

The President of OnePlus China, Li Jie, recently confirmed the arrival of the new OnePlus Turbo series. The executive teased that this lineup will carry the "powerful performance genes" of OnePlus flagships while also boasting the strongest battery life in its class. Today, the executive returns with some extra information about this battery capacity. He signs up for the info shared in the first paragraph of this article. The OnePlus Turbo will carry the biggest battery ever seen in a OnePlus smartphone.

That is great news for battery enthusiasts in OnePlus fans' circles. The reliable tipster Digital Chat Station, fortunately, brings us some numbers. According to him, the OnePlus Turbo will sport a 9,000mAh battery. The phone will land in January, marking OnePlus' first launch of 2026 in China. The device will come with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5. Another tipster, Smart Pikachu, says there will be two phones in the lineup. Both will have 9000mAh batteries, both will come with 165Hz refresh rate displays, and both will come with Snapdragon 8 series chipsets. The exact difference that sets them apart will probably be in size, design, and cameras.

We expect OnePlus to begin its teaser campaign for the new smartphone in the next weeks. There is still no word on a global release for this smartphone lineup.
