Leaked pricing for the upcoming OnePlus 16 reveals a return to more accessible memory configurations for the Chinese market. The base model starts at CNY 4,999 (around $739), marking the first time an 8GB RAM option has appeared on a flagship OnePlus device since the OnePlus 11. Including the 8GB RAM option may help the device appeal to a wider range of buyers.

The device will run on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro chipset and feature a 6.78-inch flat OLED display with 1.5K resolution and a refresh rate of up to 185Hz. OnePlus is pairing this screen with a substantial 9,000mAh battery, which should provide extended usage time for heavy users. The camera system includes a 200MP primary sensor, a 50MP ultrawide lens, and a 50MP periscope telephoto camera with 3.5x optical zoom.

OnePlus 16 Leaked Specifications

  • Chipset: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro
  • Display: 6.78-inch flat OLED, 1.5K resolution, up to 185Hz
  • Battery: 9,000mAh
  • Rear Camera: 200MP primary, 50MP ultrawide, 50MP periscope telephoto
  • RAM: 8GB, 12GB, 16GB

Storage configurations range from 256GB to 1TB, with RAM options of 8GB, 12GB, and 16GB. The 16GB/1TB configuration is reportedly released as a limited edition, distinguishing it from the standard variants. Leaks indicate that a 24GB RAM variant will not be available, capping the memory ceiling at 16GB for this generation.

Pricing for the standard variants in China is set at CNY 4,999 for the 8GB/256GB model, CNY 5,499 for the 12GB/256GB model, CNY 5,999 for the 12GB/512GB model, and CNY 7,499 (around $1,108) for the limited 16GB/1TB edition. OnePlus has exited the North American and European markets, and a launch in India remains uncertain. We looked at Xiaomi 17T Pro Alternatives in our earlier OnePlus coverage.

The OnePlus 16 is currently limited to the Chinese market with no confirmed international release dates. All specifications and pricing details are based on leaks and should be treated as unconfirmed until official announcement.
