OnePlus 15R: Specifications and features
OnePlus announced that it is actually using the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset in its OnePlus 15R.
This is the first global smartphone that features the latest flagship chipset from Qualcomm. OnePlus revealed that they collaborated with Qualcomm for almost two years to enhance performance, heat, and power consumption.
It is expected to sport a 6.83-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of Full HD+ and a refresh rate of 165 Hz, which would make it perfect for those who enjoy playing games or like smooth scrolling.
Battery life is yet another significant area where OnePlus scores big. The company has confirmed that the battery of this upcoming flagship would be a huge 7,400mAh one, which would be bigger compared to both the OnePlus 14 R and the OnePlus 15 flagship. It would also support 80W fast charging.
Camera and durability (Expected)
While camera features are still to be revealed by the company, there are reports about it, including a 50-megapixel primary camera with OIS support, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 32-megapixel front camera.
When it comes to durability, the OnePlus 15R could offer IP66, IP68, IP69, or IP69K ratings, which protect the device against dust, immersion in water, or even water jets, features that are hard to find in a device within this price range.
What to expect?
OnePlus is preparing for the launch of one of the most eagerly anticipated handsets of the year in India with the OnePlus 15R, which boasts an impressive chipset, enormous battery, high refresh rate screen, and aggressively low pricing.
