OnePlus is preparing to debut an all-new smartphone lineup called the Turbo series, created with a clear focus on extreme performance and long-lasting battery endurance. The first devices under this banner — OnePlus Turbo 6 and OnePlus Turbo 6V — are officially set to launch in China on January 8, 2026.

Rather than replacing existing OnePlus families, the Turbo range is positioned as a power-centric alternative. For markets outside China, including India, these models are widely expected to arrive with different branding, most likely as part of the OnePlus Nord 6 lineup.
