FULL STORY

Following on from the impressive OnePlus 15 , OnePlus is about to launch a couple of gaming-focused phones under the Turbo name and we now have an official teaser video showing what they're going to look like.

The video was posted to Chinese social media site Weibo by OnePlus (via 9to5Google ), and it mentions both a Turbo 6 phone and a Turbo 6V phone. It's not clear yet what the differences are, but it may well be that one is more powerful than the other.

We can see at least four colors here silver, black, a pale green, and a pale blue and given that one of the scenes shows a phone being hit by dust and water, it looks as though these Turbo handsets will come with an IP68 rating.

A couple of other specs are mentioned in the video: a 165 Hz display, for smooth gaming action, and a 9,000 mAh battery. That large battery capacity
has previously been rumored , and we now have confirmation from OnePlus that it's on the way.

In terms of the design of these handsets, it would seem that OnePlus isn't straying too far from the stylish aesthetics of the OnePlus 15. It's an approach that's both simple and easy-on-the-eye, and it works well.

These phones were first hinted at earlier this month, when OnePlus said the handsets would be focused on gaming, and bring with them "frighteningly
strong" performance although we're yet to hear anything about processor or
RAM specs.

We do know that the Turbo 6 and the Turbo 6V are going to be unveiled on Thursday, January 8, and will launch in China to begin with. As usual with OnePlus, we'll have to wait a while to find out about international availability and pricing.

Given that launch date is still more than a week away, we could well see more in the way of official reveals over the coming days. Given the quality of the best gaming phones already on the market, it's quite a bold new venture for OnePlus.
