Major Battery Upgrade
The standout feature is the 7,000mAh+ battery—a substantial 20% increase over the OnePlus 13s’ 5,850mAh cell. This massive capacity positions the 15S among the longest-lasting compact flagships, addressing one of the biggest pain points for power users.
Paired with 100W fast charging (up from 80W), the device promises both extended usage and quick top-ups when needed.
Performance & Display
The OnePlus 15s will retain the 6.32-inch flat 1.5K OLED screen from its predecessor—a compact size preferred by users who want manageable, pocket-friendly devices. This display continues OnePlus’s trend of offering flat screens without curved edges.
Powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset (the same processor expected in the OnePlus 15), the 15s ensures flagship-level performance despite its compact form factor.
Design & Build Quality
Leaked details suggest a minimalist camera module design resembling the upcoming OnePlus 15, which launches in China later this month. The device will feature a metal middle frame for durability and premium feel.
An ultrasonic fingerprint sensor replaces the optical sensor, offering faster, more secure unlocking even with wet or dirty fingers—a significant usability upgrade.
Launch Strategy & Naming
Following OnePlus’s previous strategy, the 15S will likely launch as the OnePlus 15T in China before arriving in India and other markets as the OnePlus 15s. This mirrors how the OnePlus 13T (China) became the OnePlus 13s (India) with a ₹54,999 price tag in June 2024.
The OnePlus 13s came in Black Velvet, Green Silk, and Pink Satin colors with a customizable Plus Key for switching sound profiles, launching AI features, accessing the camera, or turning on the flashlight.
Expected Features from OnePlus 13S
Based on the predecessor, the 15s should retain:
- Dual 50MP rear cameras (primary + telephoto)
- 32MP selfie camera
- 12GB RAM with up to 512GB storage
- Customizable Plus Key
