OnePlus 16 tipped to get highest smartphone refresh rate

Source: OnePlus

While we just got the OnePlus 15 in October 2025, rumours about its successor, the OnePlus 16, have already surfaced. One of the newer, prominent ones involves its display. The company is supposedly testing a screen with a refresh rate of at least 200Hz for its upcoming flagship.

Of course, we ask the usual questions regarding game support and how it'll impact battery life. But since it is still a rumour about a device many months away from potentially launching, we take this OnePlus news with a grain of salt.
