OnePlus 15R Launch Confirmed for December, Will Feature Snapdragon 8 Elite
OnePlus is launching a new phone called the OnePlus 15R soon, probably in December.
Even though they usually launch their 'R' series phones earlier, they decided to release it later this year.
It's expected to have a fast Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, similar to their Chinese model, the Ace 6.
This new phone might charge very quickly with a 120W wire charger.
It will also have a big 7,800mAh battery.
A big change is that it might not have the little switch on the side, called an alert slider, that OnePlus phones usually have.
Instead, it might get a new 'Plus Key'.
The main camera is expected to be 50 megapixels.
OnePlus has confirmed that the OnePlus 15R will be launching soon, with an expected debut in December.
The company broke its trend of launching the 'R' series alongside the flagship, but stated the 15R is coming.
The OnePlus 15R is expected to feature a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, a 165Hz AMOLED display, and a 7,800mAh battery.
Anticipated specifications suggest 120W wired fast charging and a 50MP primary camera with OIS.
The OnePlus 15R is expected to ditch the alert slider for a 'Plus Key' and will run on OxygenOS 16 based on Android 16.
