OnePlus 15 debuts in India with a triple-chip setup, massive 7300mAh battery, 120W charging, and a pro-grade camera system powered by Google Gemini.
OnePlus has unveiled the OnePlus 15 in India, packing a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor that sits at the core of a unique triple-chip architecture. This setup includes a dedicated touch-response chip and an independent Wi-Fi chip aimed at delivering snappier performance and stronger connectivity for gaming and multitasking.
To keep heat in check during intense sessions, the phone relies on a 360 Cryo-Velocity Cooling System, which uses aerogel insulation and white graphite materials to maintain performance under pressure. The display is a 1.5K LTPO panel with a 165 Hz refresh rate that can peak at 1800 nits, certified for eye care and capable of adaptive refresh for power efficiency. The device is powered by a 7300mAh Silicon NanoStack battery, and it supports 120W SUPERVOOC wired charging and 50W AIRVOOC wireless charging, promising a full charge in roughly 39 minutes. OnePlus also claims the battery retains over 80 percent capacity after four years and can operate in temperatures as low as -20°C.
On the cameras, the OnePlus 15 features a triple 50MP setup, including a main sensor with OIS, a 50MP ultra-wide with autofocus for macro shots, and a 50MP periscope telephoto lens offering 3.5x optical zoom and up to 7x lossless zoom. For creators, the display supports 4K 120 fps Dolby Vision video, LOG recording, and real-time LUT previews. The phone runs OxygenOS 16 and integrates OnePlus AI features with Google Gemini. A standout is Plus Mind, which lets users save on-screen content with one gesture and then access contextual help from Gemini for tasks like itinerary planning or note summarisation. Other AI tools mentioned include AI Writer for text generation, AI Recorder for transcription, and AI Portrait Glow for image enhancement.
Prices and exact availability details in India were highlighted, with emphasis on flagship-grade performance and connectivity upgrades that aim to set a new benchmark for OnePlus in the Indian market.
