Summary of the review

Third-party reviews

What customers like about OnePlus Ace 5 Pro (16GB + 1TB)

  • Extremely smooth and powerful performance, especially for gaming and heavy tasks, thanks to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC.
  • Exceptional battery life, often lasting a day and a half or more, with some users reporting over 12 hours of continuous video playback.
  • Very fast 100W wired charging, which can charge the large 6100 mAh battery quickly.
  • High-quality display: a 6.78-inch 120Hz AMOLED screen with excellent brightness (4500 nits peak), sharp visuals, and good eye protection features.
  • Good main camera (50MP Sony IMX890) that captures detailed photos with good dynamic range and OIS, according to some users.
  • A sleek and premium design with a comfortable grip, available in materials like ceramic and vegan leather.
  • ColorOS is noted by some users for being smooth, having rich features, and supporting customization options like third-party icon packs.
  • Features like an IR remote control sensor and a classic three-stage alert slider are appreciated.
  • Competitive pricing for the specs offered, especially in the Chinese market.

What customers don't like about OnePlus Ace 5 Pro (16GB + 1TB)

  • As a China-specific model, it presents numerous issues for global users, including region locking, lack of full global network band support, and warranty issues outside of China.
  • Software experience for global users is hampered by delayed notifications, an inability to install some Google Workspace apps, and some menus/AI features remaining in Chinese language.
  • Camera system is considered a step down from mainstream flagships, with the 2MP macro lens being described as a "joke" and some processing leading to unnatural or over-sharpened photos.
  • Users report various bugs on the China ROM, such as app crashes (e.g., Gmail), display refresh rate issues during video playback, and input lag.
  • Lack of features commonly found in some other flagship-tier phones, such as wireless charging and an IP68 (or higher) dust/water resistance rating.
  • The USB port is a slower 2.0 version, a perceived cost-saving measure.
  • Presence of unremovable Chinese bloatware and occasional ads in system apps on the China ROM.

Verdict

The OnePlus Ace 3 Pro (16GB + 1TB model) is a performance-focused smartphone featuring a flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, a stunning 6.78-inch 1.5K LTPO AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, and a massive 6,100mAh "Glacier" battery with 100W wired fast charging support. Key pros include its incredibly large battery capacity for extended usage, rapid charging capabilities (0-100% in 36 minutes), abundant 16GB LPDDR5X RAM and 1TB UFS 4.0 storage, and excellent performance for gaming and multitasking. Cons include the absence of wireless charging and a telephoto camera (featuring a 50MP main, 8MP ultrawide, and 2MP macro setup), plus the device carries only an IP65 rating for dust and splash resistance, not full waterproofing.
