The OnePlus 15 is likely to launch in China around October 2025, with a global release following in January 2026 [1]. This timeline aligns with an earlier leak that supposedly revealed the company's 2025 launch roadmap. The OnePlus 15 is expected to run OxygenOS based on Android 16 and may include several AI-powered features such as AI Detail Boost, AI Unblur, and AI Reflection Eraser [1].
The OnePlus 15 is expected to skip the OnePlus 14, following the trend of avoiding the number 'four' in product names due to superstitions in China [1]. The device is rumored to have a curved screen going away in favor of a flat display, with the size likely remaining the same as the current model [1].
Pricing for the OnePlus 15 has not been officially announced, but if OnePlus sticks to its current pricing strategy, the new model could start at around $899, similar to the OnePlus 13 [1]. The device is expected to offer 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage in the base version, with higher-end variants potentially offering 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage [1].
The OnePlus 15 is expected to have a 7,000mAh battery, significantly larger than the OnePlus 13's 6,000mAh pack, and support for wired charging up to 100W and wireless charging up to 50W [1]. The device is also expected to receive four years of major Android updates and six years of security patches [1].
The OnePlus 15 will likely feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chipset, which has been seen in early benchmarks and is expected to outperform the Snapdragon 8 Elite [3]. The Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 is expected to use the in-house developed Oryon CPU cores and be made on TSMC’s N3P fabrication process [2].
In terms of performance, the OnePlus 15 is expected to have more than enough muscle to handle everything users throw at it, outshining the already impressive OnePlus 13 [1]. The device is set to be a top-tier performer, competing with other flagship phones like the Samsung Galaxy S25 series.
