OnePlus has unveiled the all-new 15R, the “value flagship” device, as the brand likes to call it. This device is the second in the 15 series. Even as a vanilla 15 series phone, it features the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 mobile platform and delivers stellar performance. OnePlus has left no stone unturned to incorporate the most advanced technology into the smartphone.
OnePlus has revealed that the new chipset has been co-optimized for the phone over the last 24 months by Qualcomm and OnePlus. This is the first device launching globally to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 and boasts 36% faster CPU speeds, 11% faster GPU speeds, and 46% better AI performance. The phone also features LPDDR5X Ultra RAM and UFS 4.1 ROM for blisteringly fast data transfer speeds.

New Cooling Apparatus
To efficiently manage thermals with such a powerful processor, the phone is equipped with a Cryo Velocity Screen Cooler located just under the display, which uses aerogel — the lightest solid on Earth. In addition, the phone also has a 3D vapor chamber measuring 5,704 mm².
Display
Like the OnePlus 15, the 15R features a 165 Hz LTPS 1.5K AMOLED display. The screen measures 6.83 inches and has a PPI of 450. It achieves a peak brightness of 1,800 nits and can go as low as 1 nit. The phone includes an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for rapid unlocking and a dedicated touch response chip, ensuring a touch sampling rate of 3,200 Hz.
Cameras
The 15R comes with a 32-megapixel selfie camera with autofocus, a 50-megapixel main camera using the same IMX906 sensor found in the OnePlus 15, and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide sensor with a 112-degree field of view.
This hardware is paired with powerful software, including the new OnePlus DetailMax Engine from the OnePlus 15, to deliver exceptional results. All three DetailMax Engine technologies — Ultra Clear Mode, Clear Burst, and Clear Night Engine — are also present in the 15R, enabling outstanding results in day, night, and motion shots.
