OnePlus 13 and OnePlus Ace 3V chips
The news comes from the Smart Pikachu tipster on Weibo (a Chinese microblogging site). It looks like the Ace 3V will be the first model to pack the new Snapdragon 7 series chip. He added that the speaker will also have a 1.5KB screen that will protect the eyes and a powerful 5,500mAh battery that will power the device with 100W wired fast charging support.
