OnePlus Ace 5 Ultra surfaces in Geekbench with a confusing chipset choice

Last week we heard that OnePlus is working on a third member of its Ace 5 family, following the already available Ace 5 and Ace 5 Pro. Back then, this was rumored to use MediaTek's still-unannounced Dimensity 9400e SoC, which is the lower-bin of the 9400 family. But now a new OnePlus device has surfaced in the Geekbench database, and this one is powered by the recently unveiled Dimensity 9400+, which is the higher-bin model of the 9400 family. And that's rather confusing, as it's rumored to be launching in China as the OnePlus Ace 5 Supreme Edition (such names usually get translated into English as "Ultra"). OnePlus Ace 5 Supreme Edition (PLC110) appears on Geekbench- Dimensity 9400+- 16GB RAM- Android 15China launch this month. Main remain exclusive to China. #OnePlusAce5SupremeEdition #OnePlus #OnePlusAce5Ultra — Anvin (@ZionsAnvin) May 6, 2025 So we have an Ultra phone that's very close in its Geekbench scores to the OnePlus 10 Pro, but not quite there - as the Pro uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC. Anyway, the presence of the Dimensity 9400+ is certain given the 3.73 GHz frequency of its Prime core - that is in fact the one quantifiable improvement it has over the 'vanilla' 9400, which topped out at 3.63 GHz. The prototype which ran the benchmark had 16GB of RAM, but of course OnePlus could choose to offer it with other memory amounts as well. Unsurprisingly, it runs Android 15. This phone is rumored to be released in China by the end of this month. Unfortunately, international availability isn't a given. We'll keep you posted.

Is Your Android Phone Feeling Sluggish? Speed It Up With These Tweaks

If your Android phone isn't as snappy as it was a year or two ago, don't fret. Unless you're itching to upgrade to a newer device, you can probably hold on to your current phone a while longer. There are plenty of reasons for your phone's slow performance, and just as many ways to get your it up and running smoothly. Not so fun fact: your phone can be dirtier than a toilet seat, so do yourself a favor and get into a consistent cleaning routine. With that out of the way, the most substantial phone tweaks will happen in app and system settings. To get it feeling like new again, check out these tips for decluttering and reorganizing your Android phone. For more, check out our Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and Galaxy S25 Plus reviews. Take a few minutes to go through your home screen or app drawer and delete any and all apps you no longer use. Not only do those apps take up precious storage, but they potentially have access to the personal information or permissions you approved when the app was first launched. How you go about deleting an app can vary based on who makes your device, but I covered all the bases in this post. Give it a read if you don't see an uninstall option after long-pressing on the app's icon. After removing any old apps, free up more storage by going through the files saved on your Android phone. It's far too easy to forget about all of the files you've randomly downloaded -- like the takeout menu of the new place down the road or a GIF a friend sent. And those files add up. The quickest and easiest way to manage your phone's storage is to use the Files app that comes preinstalled. Actually, some phones use a variation of that same app. On Samsung, for example, it's called My Files. On the Pixel lineup, it's just Files. On the OnePlus 10 Pro, it's File Manager -- you get the point. I recommend opening the app drawer on your phone and reaching for "files." Odds are that will reveal whatever your phone-maker calls the app. Start with checking the Downloads folder, where you can either delete the files you no longer want or move them somewhere like Google Drive. Most file apps will also reveal any large files that are saved on your device. For instance, the OnePlus 10 Pro's File Manager app has a dedicated section in the app for files that are taking up a lot of space. One of the best parts of Android is how much you can customize the entire look of your phone. From installing app icon packs to completely replacing the launcher your phone uses, there are plenty of options to personalize your phone. While you can definitely jump into tweaking launchers and installing app icons, start by digging into the home screen settings your phone already provides. I do this once in a while and it's surprising how subtle tweaks to aspects like app layout can make it feel like an entirely new phone. Long-press on a blank area of your home screen, then select Home settings (or some variation of that). That will open the options for your home screen, where you can customize various settings. Settings like the size of the app grid. It may seem like a small change to go from a grid of 4x5 apps to 5x5, but that extra column can make a big difference (the same can be said about shrinking the grid). This is also where you'll find settings for things like swiping down on the home screen to view notifications instead of having to swipe from the top of the screen. Go through the respective settings your phone has and experiment with your home screen setup. Speaking of settings, now is a good time to go through and change any settings that have been annoying you. I have a roundup of settings you'll want to change and customize on any Android phone to get the most out of it. For example, turning on dark mode not only makes the app look better, but it saves battery life. And yes, I even show you how to stop app icons from automatically appearing on your home screen. Before you take a break, do yourself and your Android phone one last favor -- double-check your privacy settings. Open the Settings app then tap Privacy > Permissions Manager. Go through each category to see which apps currently have access to which treasure trove of your personal data. Find an app you don't want to have access to your location? Turn it off. The same goes for contacts, calendar or camera. It doesn't take long to go through each section, and even if it did, it's well worth the effort.
