OnePlus 16 is anticipated to launch later this year as one of the first Android flagships. There have been multiple rumours around the OnePlus 16, discussing its specifications, design, and other features.

OnePlus 16 launch timeline (expected)
Tipster Digital Chat Station has given an update on an upcoming Android flagship, believed to be the OnePlus 16. The handset is said to continue with the OnePlus design language and no major changes, which means we’ll most likely get to see the OnePlus 16 in a familiar look. The OnePlus 16 is also tipped to feature a 6.87-inch flat LIPO display with very thin bezels and use the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro flagship chipset. It’s speculated that the bezels will measure less than 1mm, which would mean a highly immersive viewing experience. Moreover, the OnePlus 16’s display is expected to feature up to a 185Hz refresh rate, so the scrolling experience and animations would be ultra-smooth.
