The OnePlus 15 is officially confirmed to be launching soon, with the company confirming it will be powered by the cutting-edge Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor. Numerous details about this flagship phone have recently surfaced, including a hands-on image leak that offers insight into its design and specifications.
OnePlus 15 design and imaging overhaul
A hands-on image, leaked by Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station (DCS) on Weibo, suggests a significant design departure. It shows a square camera module, similar in appearance to the compact flagship OnePlus 13s that launched earlier this year. The alleged OnePlus 15 appears to feature a triple rear camera setup, an upgrade from the 13s's dual camera system.
A key detail is the complete absence of Hasselblad branding. The company has officially ended its partnership with the camera firm and will instead use its new, in-house DetailMax Engine for computational photography, which is claimed to deliver superior clarity and realism.
The front panel image shows the phone running ColorOS 16 based on Android 16 in China. The phone is expected to launch globally, including in India, running OxygenOS based on the same version of Android.
