With OnePlus 15 and OnePlus 15R set to launch in India on November 13, the focus is seemingly once more moving\u2002onto the slimmer variant, which could debut early next year as our move into 2026 begins. While the device has yet to be officially confirmed by OnePlus, early rumours are starting to sketch\u2002a picture of what could very well be the company\u2019s latest compact powerhouse, taking premium design, flagship performance and an uncharacteristically beefy battery for its slim thickness.<\/p>\n

OnePlus 15s Design and Colour Options <\/p>\n

Recent leaks suggest that the OnePlus 15s are going to\u2002have a design style similar to the OnePlus 15 series, with a sleek silhouette and minimalistic camera design. The phone is expected to have a\u2002metal frame and square module camera on the back like the OnePlus 13s, as per rumours.<\/p>\n

I think the coolest nugget\u2002from these leaks is the inclusion of a multifunction alert slider, a classic OnePlus feature that may finally gain even more uses in the new device.<\/p>\n

If we\u2002believe the leaked renders, the OnePlus 15s will come in three different shades \u2014 Grey, Pink and Black \u2014 to give you a combination of playful overtones and classic looks. But, it should be noted\u2002that these design elements are not confirmed and appear only due to early leaks.<\/p>\n

OnePlus 15s Specifications (Leaked) <\/p>\n

On the inside, it is expected that the OnePlus 15s 5G will run on Qualcomm\u2019s newest Snapdragon 8 Elite\u2002Gen 5 SoC to offer high-level performance and less power consumption. This chipset could see some improvements in AI-driven\u2002performance, battery enhancements and gaming levels.<\/p>\n

Arguably the\u2002most startling rumour, though, is that Samsung will include a 7,000 mAh+ battery, a colossal leap for such a small handset. By comparison, last year\u2019s OnePlus 13s included a big (for its\u2002size) 5,850 mAh battery contracting this upswing makes it clear OnePlus is focusing hard on endurance this time around.<\/p>\n

The phone is also rumoured to have a 6.3-inch OLED screen that should deliver punchy\u2002visuals, inky-deep blacks, and smooth refresh rates. There\u2019s also a possibility of an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, given there are\u2002reports that the optical model used in the Note 10 range looks to be consigned to history. Ultrasonic sensors are generally\u2002quicker and more accurate; they even can work with wet or greasy fingers.<\/p>\n

Rumoured Specs at a Glance: <\/p>\n

– Display: 6.3-inch OLED panel<\/p>\n

– Processor: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5<\/p>\n

– Battery: 7,000 mAh+ (with fast charging expected)<\/p>\n

– Build: Metal frame with square camera module<\/p>\n

– Sensor: Ultrasonic fingerprint scanner<\/p>\n

– Colours: Pink, Grey, Black<\/p>\n

– Connectivity: 5G support, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4 (expected)<\/p>\n

OnePlus 15s Launch Timeline (Expected) <\/p>\n

Industry reports suggest\u2002that the OnePlus 15s are expected to be launched several months after the main OnePlus 15 series in March or April 2026. This schedule lines up with OnePlus\u2019s usual release cycle for its \u201cs\u201d models, which tend to be upgraded\u2002iterations of the flagship series.<\/p>\n

What to Expect <\/p>\n

If those leaks ring true, then the OnePlus 15s\u2002could become one of the most powerful small phones on the market \u2014 a phone that manages an impressive combination of slim design, extended battery life and high-end performance. The addition of a 7,000 mAh+ battery may make it an ideal choice for\u2002those who want both portability and endurance.<\/p>\n

But, until there\u2019s some confirmation from up top, take\u2002all these facts with a grain of salt. We\u2002can expect OnePlus to begin teasing the device early next year and for more credible leaks as we approach launch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With OnePlus 15 and OnePlus 15R set to launch in India on November 13, the focus is seemingly…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":129490,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[342,111,139,69,89594,89597,89598,89596,89599,89600,89595,44009,32488,145],"class_list":["post-129489","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mobile","tag-mobile","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-oneplus-15s","tag-oneplus-15s-7000-mah-battery","tag-oneplus-15s-compact-design","tag-oneplus-15s-launch-date-2026","tag-oneplus-15s-leaked-features","tag-oneplus-15s-oled-display","tag-oneplus-15s-specifications","tag-snapdragon-8-elite-gen-5","tag-tech-news","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129489","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129489"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129489\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/129490"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129489"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129489"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129489"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
