According to a Weibo post by tipster Digital Chat Station (translated from Chinese), the OnePlus 15R will be launched in mid-to-late March this year. Its launch is expected to take place a month earlier in the year compared to its predecessor. For context, the OnePlus 13T was launched in China in April 2025.

The OnePlus 13T is said to be a compact “small-screen” flagship. The tipster suggests that the purported handset will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, which also powers the flagship OnePlus 15 model.

This information corroborates a previous leak by the same tipster, which hinted towards first half (H1) of 2026. In India, however, the purported handset could be rebranded and introduced as the OnePlus 15s.

Reports suggest that the OnePlus 15T could sport a 6.31-inch flat OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and uniform, slim bezels on all sides. It is said to be offered in Healing White Chocolate, Relaxing Matcha, and Pure Cocoa (translated from Chinese) colour options. OnePlus is reported to introduce five RAM and storage configurations of the purported handset — 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB, 16GB+256GB, 16GB+512GB and 16GB+1TB.

The phone is said to support wireless charging and include a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. It may include a telephoto lens and offer up to an IP69-rated build. The device is expected to weigh around 194g. As per reports, its battery capacity may exceed the 7,000mAh mark, which is in line with recent OnePlus phones like the OnePlus 15R, OnePlus Turbo 6, and OnePlus Turbo 6V.
