OnePlus 15R 5G: What to expect
OnePlus is expected to launch the affordable flagship phone, the OnePlus Ace 6, in China around October. Later, the smartphone will be launched in India as the OnePlus 15R, which we call a rebrand model. Now, according to a tipster who goes by the name Gadgetsdata, the OnePlus 15R is slated to have major hardware upgrades, from display, performance, to battery.
Reportedly, the smartphone is expected to come with a flat OLED display that may offer 1.5K resolution and a 165Hz refresh rate. For performance, the OnePlus 15R is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, which currently powers the OnePlus 13. Additionally, it is expected to be backed by a 7,000mAh battery, a massive upgrade from the OnePlus 13R's 6,000mAh battery.
For photography, the smartphone may offer a similar triple camera setup as its predecessor; however, we can expect upgraded camera sensors. The tipster also claims that the budget flagship could come with an improved ultrasonic fingerprint scanner and offer upgraded durability with IP68 and IP69 ratings. Currently, the OnePlus 13R offers an IP65 rating.
While the upgrades look promising, OnePlus may also plan to increase the price of the smartphone. As of now, the OnePlus 13R retails at Rs. 39999, which is quite cheap, considering other budget flagships like iPhone 16e, Samsung Galaxy S24 FE, OnePlus 13s, and others. Now, with speculated upgrades, the upcoming OnePlus 15R could be expensive considering the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. However, take the information with a grain of salt, since we still have a few months for the smartphone launch.
