At Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Summit, the company teased the OnePlus 15, and now it has announced that its next flagship phone will debut globally.
OnePlus usually releases its phones in the US shortly after introducing them in China, even though the company did not state that the phone would launch in the US.
It will be the first phone to use aerospace-grade Micro-Arc Oxidation on the center frame and the back camera housing, and it will come in a new Sand Storm color in addition to the previously announced black and white versions.
According to OnePlus, “a high-voltage plasma technique that forms a ceramic layer directly on the metal frame” provides aerospace-grade resilience. The durability of the frame should be enhanced because it is reportedly more than three times harder than an aluminum frame.
The Verge noticed that OnePlus also posted pictures of the phone in three separate Weibo posts. The new Sand Storm version allows you to view the device from various perspectives. The camera cutout in the upper left corner of the rear has been visible in previous OnePlus teases, but these images give us a closer look.
The images also verify that a customisable “Plus Key” shortcut button has taken the place of the OnePlus Alert Slider.
The phone will run on the most recent Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, and it will be the first to have a 165Hz refresh rate display and the new DetailMax picture engine, according to last week’s announcements.
According to OnePlus, it would employ “strong CPUs and innovative algorithms to capture images that feel breathtakingly crisp and totally real.”
Next month, China will host an official launch celebration.
