The OnePlus 13R debuted with an impressive 6,000mAh battery pack, but its successor could pack an even larger 7,000mAh cell. We can also expect fast charging support like 80W or higher. For optics, the rear will have a main camera with an ultra wide angle lens and a telephoto shooter similar to its predecessor. Although the camera sensors might get some upgrades as well. Another notable improvement is the ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, which is faster and more accurate than the optical sensor on the 13R.

The tipster claims that the design will retain the metal frame; however, it will get better protection against the elements with an IP68 + IP69 rating. In comparison, the OnePlus 13R only has an IP65 rating. Considering these upgrades, OnePlus will likely hike the price on the new OnePlus 15R, which might be a rebranded OnePlus Ace 6.
