OnePlus 16 Leak Points to 240Hz-Class Display and Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro

The claims suggest a big step up from the OnePlus 15’s 165Hz screen.

Overview

  • Tipster Digital Chat Station detailed a 6.78-inch flat BOE LTPO panel at 1.5K resolution with bezels near 1 mm using LIPO packaging.
  • The display is reportedly set for at least 185Hz refresh with testing up to 240Hz, which would rank among the fastest on a mainstream phone.
  • The screen may support the wide BT.2020 color gamut and use a custom touch-control chip to improve responsiveness.
  • The phone is tipped to use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro chipset, model SM8975, with possible next‑gen LPDDR6 memory.
  • Other leaks mention a near 9,000mAh “Glacier” battery and a 200MP periscope camera, though these parts are unconfirmed ahead of a launch later this year.
