According to the prominent tech leaker Digital Chat Station, the highly anticipated OnePlus Turbo 6X Pro is set to make its official debut sometime this week. Dubbed as a new mid-range budget killer, the smartphone is designed to offer high-end performance at an incredibly accessible price point, shaking up the competitive sub-$250 market.
The leak highlights several key specifications for the upcoming Pro model. It is rumored to feature a stunning 1.5K Samsung eye-protection flat display that supports an ultra-smooth 144Hz refresh rate. Additionally, the device will be powered by a massive battery (rumored to start with an ‘8’ digit, likely in the 8,000 to 8,900 mAh range) and boasts an impressive IP69X dust and water resistance rating. Leakers also hint that the device will come in a series of highly unique and eye-catching color options.
This news follows a previous leak from late May suggesting that the entire OnePlus Turbo 6X series is on the horizon. The standard version is expected to feature a 144Hz LCD screen, while the beefier Pro variant steps up to a high-quality 1.5K OLED panel.
While full hardware details remain under wraps, looking back at the preceding OnePlus Turbo 6 series gives us a clear picture of what to expect. Released in January with a starting price of 1,699 yuan (approximately $235), the standard OnePlus Turbo 6 shipped with the powerful Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 mobile platform, a flagship-grade 1.5K 165Hz Eastern OLED display, and a massive 9,000mAh Glacier battery supporting 80W fast charging. There was also a Turbo 6V variant equipped with the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 processor, a 144Hz eye-protection screen, and the same massive 9,000mAh battery.
If OnePlus follows its usual product cycle, the Turbo 6X Pro will continue this legacy of packing massive batteries and top-tier displays into budget-friendly builds, making it one of the most exciting budget-friendly releases of the summer.
