Update, July 24, 2025 (01:26AM ET):OnePlus CEO Pete Lau has confirmed that the company has developed a 120Hz display. Lau took to Chinese social media websiteWeiboto make the announcement in advance of a screen technology event scheduled to take place in China today.
In his Weibo post, Lau said that OnePlus has completed its research on 120Hz displays. However, he didn’t give out any details about OnePlus phones that would get the high refresh rate display. We haven’t heard any solid rumors about the upcomingOnePlus 8 seriessporting the 120Hz display refresh rate.

Guess, we’ll just have to wait for more details to emerge from OnePlus’ screen technology event.
Original Article, June 11, 2025 (06:30PM ET):A post on Chinese social media siteWeibo(via9to5Google) has revealed that OnePlus is prepping to unveil some mysterious new screen technology. The company sent out press invites to a January 13 event about its recent display developments, but it doesn’t give us any official information about what we will see.
AtCES 2020, OnePlus showed off theOnePlus Concept One, a concept device featuringelectrochromic glassto hide the rear-facing cameras. We don’t suspect this upcoming event will have anything to do with this tech, but it’s interesting to see the company make two announcements like this within the same month.
We suspect OnePlus will most likely announce the inclusion of 120Hz panels in its future devices. We’ve already heard rumors that the upcomingOnePlus 8 Procould come with this high refresh rate display, so it’s within reason to believe the company could unveil the tech soon.

We could also see under-display front-facing camera tech as we’ve recently seen fromOppo, but a 120Hz panel seems more likely. In the end, all of this is just speculation until OnePlus releases more information.
