OnePlus has unveiled its latest flagship, the OnePlus 15, and early reviews suggest the phone lives up to its promise of ‘Power On. Limits Off’.
The device was tested in Delhi across indoor calls, metro commutes, outdoor sunlight, and late-night gaming. It impresses in performance, battery endurance, AI enhancements, and photography.
Design and Display
The OnePlus 15 sports a 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution and a 165Hz refresh rate, delivering fluid scrolling, swipes, and gaming visuals.
High peak brightness ensures readability even in Delhi’s harsh sunlight. Its flat-edge chassis, available in finishes like Sand Storm and Infinite Black, offers a premium feel, though prolonged one-handed use may be slightly less ergonomic.
Performance and Gaming
The OnePlus 15 is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset with up to 16GB RAM and UFS 4.1 storage. It handles multitasking and high-end gaming with ease.
Games like Call of Duty Mobile ran smoothly, with the ‘always-on 120fps’ mode standing out. The device warmed slightly during extended gaming sessions, but it maintained stable performance.
Camera Capabilities
The triple 50MP rear camera setup and 32MP front camera capture sharp, vibrant images in daylight. Zooming up to 3× maintains clarity, while ultra-wide lenses deliver expansive views.
Low-light performance shows slight noise, and telephoto zoom beyond 7× softens images. Video capture remains strong, supporting 4K at 120fps.
Battery and Charging
The 7,300mAh battery supports 120W wired and 50W wireless charging, comfortably lasting a full day of heavy use and extending into the next morning. Fast charging ensures quick top-ups for intensive users.
Software and AI Features
Running OxygenOS 16 on Android 16, the OnePlus 15 integrates AI tools such as Plus Mind and Google Gemini for productivity. Promised four years of OS updates and six years of security patches make it a compelling long-term investment.
Verdict
With a top-tier display, smooth performance, robust battery, and capable cameras, the OnePlus 15 scores 4.5/5. For users prioritising performance, endurance, and a refined design, it stands as one of India’s leading Android flagships.
