OnePlus had a busy day: it announced the global launch of the OnePlus 11 and unveiled the OnePlus Ace 2 for China. In reality, while the broadcast in India largely followed the global event, it continued with an additional device, the 11R. This is the local name of Ace 2.
The OnePlus 11R is the sequel to last year’s 10R, itself based on the original Ace. Just like the ace never left China, the 10R never left India. As far as we know, the new 11R model won’t be leaving the subcontinent either.

Which is a shame as it brings some fantastic improvements over its predecessor. The main update is the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. As good as the Dimensity 8100-Max is, it really is a mid-range chip. The 8+ Gen 1 is still fast enough to stay with the top-of-the-line crowd.
OnePlus has kept essentially the same display size, 6.74″, but increased the resolution from 1,080 x 2,412 px to 1,240 x 2,772 px. This is somewhere between FHD+ and QHD+. Combined with the extra processing power of the Adreno 730 GPU, the phone will offer sharper graphics in games.The refresh rate is the same at 120Hz and it is still a 10-bit panel (with HDR10+ support).
The 10R model was available with two charging and battery systems: 80W/5,000mAh and 150W/4,500mAh. The company has taken a more balanced approach this year and only offers a power system configuration with a 5,000mAh battery and 100W fast charging. It’s not as fast as the older 150W model, but it offers more battery life and manages to hit 100% in 25 minutes (compared to 32 minutes on the 80W/5,000mAh 10R). This matches the speed (and battery capacity) of the flagship OnePlus 11.

We’ve been comparing the 11R to the 10R so far, but another comparison is to the 10T. That phone is also powered by the 8+ Gen 1 chipset, but sticks to the older FHD+ display and has a 4,800mAh battery with 150W fast charging.
The camera system is mostly the same as last year with a 50MP main module with an f/1.8 lens with OIS and a 50MP 1/1.56″ sensor (this time an IMX890, replacing the IMX766 Ultra Wide is still at 8MP (120°) and there’s a 2MP macro cam. Actually, the only notable change here is that the 11R can record 4K at 60fps (compared to 30fps). fps of the 10R).
The last thing to cover is the price. The base 8/128GB model starts at ₹40,000 and you can get double the RAM and double the storage i.e. 16/256GB, for ₹45,000.

For comparison, the older 10R launched at ₹39,000 for an 80W unit with 8/128GB of memory, while the 10T cost ₹50,000 for the same 8/128GB configuration. Today, the flagship OnePlus 11 was launched globally and its price in India starts at ₹57,000.
