OnePlus is already in the works for its next flagship, the OnePlus 15, which may see some alterations in its specs. According to a leak by Digital Chat Station, the upcoming device could feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 processor, rumored to hit speeds of up to 5 GHz. Although the display might undergo a manufacturing tweak for slimmer bezels, there may be compromises in other areas such as camera specifications and battery capacity compared to the current OnePlus 13.
Reports suggest that the prototype of OnePlus 15 is testing a symmetrical design reminiscent of an iPhone. On the back, conflicting rumors hint at either a 50 MP periscope telephoto camera or a groundbreaking 200 MP periscope lens. The battery details remain unclear, but speculations point towards a 6,000 mAh battery similar to its predecessor for improved endurance.
If the OnePlus 15 indeed sacrifices resolution for other features, it would need notable upgrades in photography capabilities or battery life to justify the trade-offs. With a cleaner design, the latest Qualcomm chip, and an enhanced periscope lens, OnePlus could still deliver a compelling device as long as it maintains its reputation for fast, clean software and competitive pricing.
