OnePlus 15
OnePlus 15 Ships December 22
After a delay due to the government shutdown, OnePlus has started taking pre-orders for its OnePlus 15 flagship phone. The company's web site currently shows that it "ships in 18 days", and only the pricier 16/512 GB version is available for now.
OnePlus 15 Will Come to US but Date Uncertain
OnePlus has fully revealed its new flagship — the OnePlus 15 — for western markets. Although the company does plan to sell it in the US, its sale date is dependent on FCC approval, which is currently delayed due to the government shutdown. The OnePlus 15 boasts the largest battery on the market at a whopping 7,300 mAh. It also has extremely fast charging at up to 80W wired / 50W wireless. The phone adopts a new design language for OnePlus that is closer to what the leading competition has designed in recent years. Other features are similar to the OnePlus 13, such as triple 50-megapixel rear cameras, IP69 water rating, ultrasonic in-display fingerprint reader, Wi-Fi 7, and an infrared emitter. The 15 has a simple shortcut button instead of the slider switch that was a signature feature of many past OnePlus phones. The 15 is powered by the top-end Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip from Qualcomm. The phone has good support for the 5G and 4G networks of all top three US carriers. It will come in black with 12 GB RAM / 256 storage for $900. For an extra $100, it will come with 16 GB RAM / 512 GB storage, as well as sand and violet color options.
