Multiple outlets report leaked schematics for the upcoming OnePlus Ace 7, suggesting the phone will include a built-in active cooling fan using a dual-airflow design. Tipster Digital Chat Station shared details via Weibo, with the schematics indicating the fan placement near the rear assembly and describing two separate airflow paths.
According to the leaks, one airflow route helps move hot air out through the phone’s sides, while another directs cooler air toward the rear panel. NDTV adds that the cooling approach may involve an AI temperature sensor and proprietary mechanisms intended to reduce fan noise and limit dust intrusion into the device. TechGenyz similarly characterizes the design as more than passive heat spreading, focusing on managing temperatures around the processor area.
Outlets also mention additional alleged development details, including an expected Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset for the Chinese market. The reports are based on unverified schematics and tipster claims, so final specifications and cooling performance remain to be confirmed by OnePlus.
