Leaked information has surfaced about the upcoming OnePlus 15T smartphone, suggesting notable upgrades while maintaining a compact design.
The device is expected to feature a 6.3-inch screen, similar in size to its predecessor, the OnePlus 13T (known as the OnePlus 13s outside China). It will reportedly be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset.
One of the most significant potential improvements is a battery exceeding 7,000mAh, a substantial increase from the OnePlus 13s’s 5,850mAh capacity. Such a large battery in a phone with a small display would be an impressive engineering feat.
Additional rumored specifications include a metal frame and multifunction buttons possibly dedicated to camera or AI controls. The device may also incorporate ultrasonic sensors, likely referring to an ultrasonic under-display fingerprint reader, which would mark an upgrade over the current optical sensor.
No confirmed details have been released about the camera system, though there is speculation that OnePlus might add a telephoto lens, expanding from the dual 50MP main and ultrawide setup of the 13T/13s to a triple rear-camera configuration.
The phone is expected to launch as the OnePlus 15T in China and possibly as the OnePlus 15s in other markets.
