OnePlus 45W Liquid Cooler Can Drop Smartphone Temps by 20 Degrees

OnePlus is aiming for performance gains at this year's MWC. It displayed the eye-catching OnePlus 11 Concept, which featured an integrated liquid cooling system capable of lowering temperatures by 1 to 2 degrees. However, the device will not be made available to the general public. As a result, its other product, a dedicated liquid cooler that can dramatically lower temperatures by 20 degrees, could be a good option for gamers looking for a dedicated cooling solution for those long gaming sessions.

OnePlus 45W Liquid Cooler Can Be Used on Any Smartphone

The OnePlus 45W Liquid Cooler attaches to the phone via a clamp with spring-loaded clips that can expand to fit most smartphones.

The clamp portion of the system weighs only 75 grams, as opposed to the clip with a fan inside used by Asus for its ROG smartphones.

The clamp is connected to the main box, which is about the size of a router or modem, by OnePlus' signature red cable.

Inside the box is the liquid cooling wizardry, and the cooling process begins as soon as the phone is connected to the clamp. OnePlus has also added the ability to adjust the cooling strength as well as to reduce noise.

OnePlus 45W Liquid Cooler Drops Temps by 20 Degrees

According to OnePlus, its liquid cooler can significantly reduce device temperature by 20 degrees, allowing the CPU to run at its highest clock speeds without throttling, resulting in high frame rates for smooth and comfortable gameplay.

In addition, unlike other thermoelectric solutions from other companies, the liquid cooler does not blow hot air onto the user's hands.

Android Authority tested the device and reported that after about ten seconds of using a phone with the cooler, the back of the device felt cold. The phone's back felt ice-cold to touch when they removed the clamp. The people over at Stuff had a similar reaction.
