FULL STORY ======================================================================OnePlus has launched the OnePlus Turbo series Highlights include 9,000mAh batteries and high refresh rates These low-cost gaming phones have so far only be announced for China, but there might be a global launch later
Following a tease last month , the OnePlus Turbo 6 and OnePlus Turbo 6V have now been fully unveiled, and they look set to deliver impressive battery life and gaming capabilities at a fairly low price.
Both phones have 9,000mAh batteries, meaning they have even the 7,300mAh OnePlus 15 beat there. They can also both charge at up to 80W, and despite having such high capacity batteries, theyre only 8.5mm thick.
They also both have substantial water resistance, including IP66, IP68, and IP69 ratings, giving them resistance to splashes, submersion, and high-pressure, high-temperature water jets. For cameras, they both have a
50MP main snapper, a 2MP monochrome one, and a 16MP front-facing camera.

Many of the other specs differ between the two phones though, with the
OnePlus Turbo 6 being the higher end model. This has a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset, up to 16GB of RAM, and includes a Fengchi Game Kernel, which can
help games reach 165fps. It also has up to 512GB of storage, and a 6.78-inch screen with a 165Hz refresh rate.
The OnePlus Turbo 6V instead has a Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset, up to 12GB of RAM, up to 512GB of storage, and a 6.78-inch screen with a 144Hz refresh
rate.
So neither model is especially high-end aside from the battery and screen specs, but with those high capacity batteries, high refresh rates, and in
the case of the OnePlus Turbo 6 game-boosting Fengchi Game Kernel, they should make for solid gaming phones.
Right now, these phones are only confirmed for China, with the OnePlus Turbo
6 starting at CNY 2,300 (around $330 / 245 / AU$490), while the 6V starts at CNY 1,900 (roughly $270 / 200 / AU$410), so these could be very affordable phones if pricing elsewhere is similar.
That said, while it's possible that theyll get a global launch later, as
thats often the case with OnePlus devices, theres no guarantee. So for now, you might want to check out our list of the best gaming phones if youre looking for a new handset to play on.
