OnePlus 15 launched in China alongside the OnePlus Ace 6 on October 27, 2025. Considering it took OnePlus almost two months to bring the OnePlus 13 to India after its China launch in 2024, the OnePlus 15 is arriving rather early.

As for the specifications, we already know that the device will be one of the first phones in India to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor. Coupled with 16 GB LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1, the phone largely focuses on performance. Software-wise, it will be the first OnePlus phone to come with all the OxygenOS 16 features out of the box.

With OnePlus ditching Hasselblad for its own DetailMax Engine, the brand is introducing an ultra-clear 26 MP mode. OnePlus claims it combines data from 12 MP binned frames and a full 50 MP shot to create a more detailed image. The camera setup includes triple 50 MP snappers at the back consisting of wide, ultrawide and periscope lenses.

The engine also introduced a Clear Burst mode, which can capture 10 frames a second with dual-exposure technology to reduce motion blur. It also features Clear Night Engine for brighter, cleaner low-light photos.

Other specifications include a 7,300mAh battery with 120W fast charging and 50W wireless charging. The device boasts a 6.78-inch 165Hz 1.5K LTPO AMOLED display protected by Corning's Gorilla Glass. Underneath is an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner.

With the OnePlus 15's launch less than a week away, more rumours about its specifications and pricing should surface as we inch closer to launch. Stay tuned as we will cover all the new details as they pop up. Meanwhile, we're still waiting to hear from Realme on the GT 8 Pro's launch date as the firm claims it will be India's first 8 Elite Gen 5-powered phone.
