The upcoming OnePlus 16 smartphone is set to launch on October 12. It will be among the first devices to feature the Snapdragon 8 Extreme Edition processor. The handset is designed to support 185FPS gaming and a global 165Hz refresh rate.
The device will be available in three color options: Tomorrow Starlight, Dark Forest, and Mars Masterpiece. It will also be the first model to ship with the ColorOS 17 operating system pre-installed.
The Oriental Screen is a joint flexible OLED display brand developed by BOE and OnePlus. The previous third-generation version debuted on October 14, 2025, alongside the OnePlus 15, featuring LTPO 2.0 adaptive refresh technology ranging from 1Hz to 165Hz.
The new fourth-generation screen is expected to utilize X4 light-emitting materials. According to reports, the display incorporates significant circuit upgrades to achieve a hardware-level global ultra-high refresh rate.
