OnePlus has started teasing two new launches on its website. This includes the new OnePlus 15R smartphone and an unnamed OnePlus smartwatch.
The OnePlus 15R is a known quantity, or at least it seems that way based on the teaser image and what we know from previous R-series devices from the company. The 15R looks like the OnePlus Ace 6 that was launched in China last month. Compared to last year’s OnePlus 13R, the Ace 6 has a slightly larger display, the newer Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, and a massive 7800mAh battery with 120W fast charging. However, it loses the telephoto camera on the back while maintaining the other three cameras on the 13R.
If history were to repeat itself, the OnePlus 15R is just going to end up being the Ace 6 with minor cosmetic differences. It’s possible OnePlus chooses to swap out the cameras with better ones but that’s more wishful thinking than anything currently supported by evidence. Regardless, you are still getting two cameras at the back this year despite the 13R finally making the jump to having a dedicated telephoto last year. It seems OnePlus is determined on having worse camera hardware on every 15 series device than its predecessor.
Moving on, OnePlus is also teasing a new smartwatch on its European websites. The page merely shows an outline for the device without any detail. There’s not even an official name; OnePlus is merely referring it to as the ‘New Watch’. We expect it to be announced and go on sale alongside the OnePlus 15R, considering
