After the iPhone 17 series launch, OnePlus is now preparing to introduce its next-generation flagship, the OnePlus 15. While we don’t know much about the upcoming flagship, one thing is certain: OnePlus has ended its partnership with Hasselblad. This means we could see a new camera setup as well as improved specifications. Rumours suggest that OnePlus may introduce Detail MaxEngine for the camera.

Li Jie Louis, President of OnePlus China, hinted on Weibo that the OnePlus 15 will go beyond the standard 120Hz refresh rate that currently dominates flagship devices.

We’ve already seen a few gaming phones, such as the ASUS ROG Phone, with refresh rates of 165Hz and even 185Hz, and OnePlus’ entry could reshape the flagship segment, where a variable 120Hz refresh rate is considered standard.

The timing of the announcement is notable because it comes just after Apple unveiled its iPhone 17 lineup, and for the first time, the entry-level iPhone now has a 120Hz ProMotion display with always-on functionality, closing a gap where Android brands have long led.

OnePlus 15 launch timeline

The OnePlus 15 could launch in October in China and is said to make its way to the Indian retail shelves in January next year. However, the details are not confirmed at the moment.

The device is said to feature a 50MP main, 50MP ultrawide, and 50MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom.
