OnePlus Ace 3V leaks in hands-on shots again, this time in purple

The OnePlus Ace 3V is currently the darling of the rumorsphere / leakosphere (yes we made those words up). It's leaking almost every day, and the company is also busy confirming details about it left and right.

Now we have yet another case of leaked live photos of the upcoming device, only this time it's a different purplish colorway. It was spotted in the hand of none other than Xia Sining, China's 100m hurdles champion.

The images confirm the design for the umpteenth time, including the circle flash. This is very close to the design of the OnePlus Nord CE4 which is launching in India on April 1. The Ace 3V itself could be rebranded as Nord 4 or Nord 5 for international markets since the Ace 2V ended up being the Nord 3 with a few minor changes.

OnePlus has confirmed the Ace 3V will sport the yet-unannounced Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 chipset, up to 16GB LPDDR5x RAM and up to 512GB UFS 4.0 storage. It's expected to have better battery life than the OnePlus 12. So far rumors assigned a 5,500 mAh battery capacity to it, which is 100 mAh more than the 12's.

The Ace 3V should finally become official next week, though a specific date has weirdly not been announced yet.
