Display and Design Expectations
The Turbo series is expected to include an extremely large flat OLED screen with dimensions expected to measure about 6.78 to 6.8 inches and a 1.5K resolution.

There are rumors of a sleek OnePlus design featuring:
- A flat frame
- A glossy plastic back panel to help keep the price tag low
- Several color combinations at launch

- RAM is expected to go up to 16 GB.
- Internal storage may go up to 512 GB.

Massive Battery Steals the Spotlight
Perhaps the most exciting feature of this device has to do with its battery. It’s safe to say that the 9,000 mAh battery will be amongst the largest battery capacities ever observed in a consumer smartphone. This massive battery will be paired with 80W to 100W of charging support.

Camera and Market Positioning

The beginning of an altogether new and aggressive phase for OnePlus may soon be upon the brand, with official announcements just days away.
