OnePlus Ace 7 Pro Could Launch in India as the OnePlus 16R
The Ace series usually stays exclusive to China, but the Ace 7 Pro could make its way to India under a different name.
The OnePlus 16 launched earlier this month with the higher-end Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 and remains China-only so far. Multiple reports suggest the Ace 7 Pro could arrive in India as the OnePlus 16R, with tipsters estimating a price of ₹70,000–₹80,000.
Earlier leaks about the OnePlus 16R mentioned a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, a large main camera, a 3.5X telephoto camera, a 9000mAh battery and an 185Hz display. Those specifications match the Ace 7 Pro on paper, although OnePlus hasn’t confirmed any India launch plans yet.
