OnePlus 13S successor in the works with Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5: Report

OnePlus is reportedly working on the OnePlus 15T, powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. The smartphone will likely be the successor to the OnePlus 13S

OnePlus is reportedly preparing to launch another compact smartphone, expected to be called the OnePlus 15T. According to a report by Android Authority, the device’s specifications have surfaced on the Chinese microblogging platform Weibo. The phone is expected to feature a flat 6.3-inch display of a 165Hz refresh rate. If true, this would likely place the OnePlus 15T in a similar size category as the OnePlus 13T, which arrived in India as the OnePlus 13S with a tad smaller capacity battery. On that note, the OnePlus 15T could very well be the OnePlus 13S successor.

OnePlus 15T: What to expect

According to the report, the OnePlus 15T will likely be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. The smartphone is expected to sport a 6.3-inch display of a 165Hz refresh rate and 1.5K resolution. The smartphone is said to pack a 7000mAh to 7500mAh battery. This would likely be a huge battery capacity for a compact phone. It would also be a significant upgrade over the OnePlus 13T’s 6,260mAh battery. 

 

 

The OnePlus 15T smartphone will likely have an ultrasonic under-display fingerprint sensor and a metal frame. The smartphone is said to include a 50MP JN5 telephoto camera. It is expected to be similar to the 2x telephoto lens on the OnePlus 13s, though details about the native zoom level are still unclear.
