The upcoming OnePlus 15 is set to feature a 165Hz refresh rate display, offering a smoother experience for users. However, the trade-off seems to be a lower resolution panel, possibly at 1.5K. This downgrade in resolution might disappoint some users, especially those who value high-quality visuals on their devices.
Compared to its predecessor, the OnePlus 13, the OnePlus 15's display may fall short in terms of resolution. The rumored 6.78-inch 1.5K display on the OnePlus 15 is slightly smaller and less sharp than the 6.82-inch 2K screen on the OnePlus 13. This decision by OnePlus raises concerns about whether the upgrade in refresh rate is truly worth the compromise in display quality.
In a competitive market where higher refresh rates are becoming more common, OnePlus may need to reconsider its priorities to stay ahead of the curve. With other flagship devices already offering impressive specs, including ultra-high refresh rates, OnePlus 15's display choices could impact its competitiveness in the market.
