Oppo has already announced ColorOS 15 (based on Android 15), which will eventually roll out to eligible Oppo and OnePlus devices (in China). For OnePlus phones outside China, the company has also completed its development of the Android 15-based OxygenOS 15 skin.
In the latest news, OnePlus Community has confirmed that OxygenOS 15 will be unveiled on October 24, just days after the launch of the Snapdragon 8 Elite (or 8 Gen 4) chip.
OxygenOS 15 to offer visual enhancements alongside AI features
The motto ‘Speed meets AI’ for the Android 15-based skin is self-explanatory. This isn’t a surprise though, as the just unveiled ColorOS 15 also packs several visual and performance-focused refinements alongside new AI features. However, OnePlus is yet to reveal anything about the latest additions in OxygenOS.
According to reports, OxygenOS 15 offers Gemini integration and includes an AI-powered photo editing tool similar to Google’s Magic Eraser.
OxygenOS 15 reportedly includes a revamped control center, which, according to previous reports, draws inspiration from iOS and HyperOS. Swiping down from the screen’s left corner may open the notification window, and swiping from the right could bring up the Control Centre.
This is possibly one of the biggest visual changes in the latest custom skin from OnePlus. The revamped layout is speculated to feature a media player in a 2×2 grid, a 1×2 brightness slider, and a volume control in a 1×2 grid.
The upcoming flagship, OnePlus 13, is expected to launch soon after the unveiling of the new chip, possibly in October. Not to mention Xiaomi and iQOO will also launch their new flagships around the same time.
According to a previous leak, the OnePlus 13 could pack a custom version of the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip that aims for a more power-efficient operation. The phone will also pack a massive 6,000mAh battery, which is expected to support 100W fast charging.
On the front, the phone is rumored to pack a 2K LTPO display and a triple 50MP camera setup on the back.
