OnePlus 15 India launch: Confirmed details
The OnePlus 15 will sport a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution, a 165Hz LTPO adaptive refresh rate, and 1,800 nits peak brightness, dropping to just one nit in dim environments. The display will be flanked by 1.15mm bezels on all four sides. It will be TUV Rheinland Intelligent Eye Care 5.0 certified, offering Eye Comfort Reminder and Eye Comfort Mode for Gaming to reduce eye strain during extended use.
Powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, the phone will include a dedicated touch response chip and a standalone Wi-Fi module for smoother performance and stable connectivity. According to OnePlus, this three-chip setup is tuned for OxygenOS 16 (Android 16), enabling 120fps gameplay with zero frame drops and a custom gyroscope for precision control. Heat management will be handled by a vapour chamber cooling system for consistent performance under load. It will also boast Plus Mind to be the consumers’ personal intelligence assistant.
The camera setup will include three 50MP sensors—main, ultra-wide, and telephoto—processed using OnePlus’ in-house DetailMax Engine after parting ways with Hasselblad. The device will also be certified IP66, IP68, IP69, and IP69K, ensuring robust protection against dust, water, and high-pressure jets. Additionally, it boasts the industry’s first middle frame with micro arc oxidation, which has been claimed to be 3.4 times tougher than aluminium and 1.3 times stronger than titanium; however, this will only be available on the Sand Storm variant.
Powering it all will be a 7,300mAh Silicon NanoStack battery that has been claimed to retain over 80 per cent capacity after four years of use and functions in temperatures as low as minus 20 degrees Celsius. It will support 120W SUPERVOOC wired and 50W AIRVOOC wireless charging, along with a bypass charging mode to keep temperatures low during gaming.
