With the official microsite already live and several features confirmed, here’s a full look at what to expect from the OnePlus 15R. Launch date and availability The OnePlus 15R will make its debut in India on December 17, sharing the stage with the OnePlus Pad Go 2. After launch, the device will be available for purchase via Amazon, the OnePlus online store and authorized retail partners across the country. Performance and hardware upgrades OnePlus has confirmed that the 15R will run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, which is a significant upgrade over its predecessor.

(OnePlus) A major highlight is its massive 7,400 mAh battery, the largest ever fitted into a OnePlus phone. It even surpasses the 7,300 mAh unit found in the standard OnePlus 15. The company says the battery is designed for extended gaming, streaming and productivity sessions. It features Silicon Nanostack technology with a 15% silicon content in the anode, enabling the cell to retain at least 80% capacity after four years. The device is also likely to support 80W fast charging. Display Features The OnePlus 15R is likely to sport a 165Hz 1.5K AMOLED display, which matches the panel used on the OnePlus 15. The screen can reach a peak brightness of 1,800 nits for improved outdoor visibility and can dim down to just 1 nit for eye comfort in low-light settings. It also carries TÜV Rheinland Intelligent Eye Care 5.0 certification, which should appeal to users who spend long hours on their phones. Camera Capability For imaging, the device is expected to have a 50MP Sony IMX906 primary sensor with optical image stabilization, accompanied by an 8MP ultra-wide lens. On the front, a 32MP camera will likely handle selfies and video calls. While not a dramatic overhaul, the setup represents reliable everyday photographic performance. Price Expectations The OnePlus 15R is expected to fall within the ₹45,000 to ₹50,000 price bracket in India. In comparison, the OnePlus 13R was launched at ₹42,999, which marks a moderate jump commensurate with the upgrades on offer.
