OnePlus on Thursday launched the OnePlus 15 in India, pitching the phone as a performance-first flagship with industry-leading battery endurance. The new OnePlus 15 launch brings Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, a 7,300mAh dual-cell Silicon NanoStack battery and a pro-grade triple 50MP camera setup — a spec sheet aimed squarely at heavy users and mobile gamers.
What’s new: power and performance
At the heart of the OnePlus 15 is the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 platform — Qualcomm’s top-tier SoC — paired with up to 16GB LPDDR5X RAM and fast UFS storage options. OnePlus says the chip and a redesigned cooling system deliver sustained peak performance for gaming and multitasking.
Battery and charging: endurance-focused
The headline grabber is the 7,300mAh typical-capacity battery (implemented as a serial dual-cell design giving a typical 3650mAh x2 equivalence). OnePlus markets this as its largest battery ever, promising up to ~31 hours of video playback and long real-world runtimes. The phone supports ultra-fast 120W SUPERVOOC wired charging and 50W AIRVOOC wireless charging to refill the large battery quickly.
Display and cameras
The OnePlus 15 sports a 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a 1.5K resolution and a 165Hz adaptive refresh rate — ideal for smooth scrolling and gaming. Imaging is handled by a triple 50MP array (main + ultra-wide + telephoto) along with a 32MP front camera, with OnePlus emphasising refined computational photography and video features.
Price and availability in India
OnePlus has priced the OnePlus 15 starting at ₹72,999 in India for the base configuration. The device will be sold through Amazon India and the OnePlus online store, with launch offers and trade-in deals available at retail partners.
Verdict (brief)
The OnePlus 15 launch positions the handset as a true endurance flagship — marrying cutting-edge silicon with a class-leading battery and fast charging. If long battery life plus flagship performance are top priorities, the OnePlus 15 is now one of the most compelling choices in the Indian market.
