OnePlus is gearing up for a fresh design direction with its next flagship, the OnePlus 15. According to a new leak from reliable Digital Chat Station, the company is finally moving away from the circular camera layout that’s become a design staple in recent years.
Instead of the large round camera bump, the OnePlus 15 is reportedly switching to a small square-shaped module, tucked into the top-left corner of the back panel. The leak suggests that the rear camera system will feature a 50MP triple-lens setup with a main camera, an ultra-wide lens, and a periscope telephoto sensor.
On the front, the OnePlus 15 will use a 1.5K flat display with minimal bezels. It will use LIPO (Low Injection Pressure Overmolding) display packaging tech, a process that replaces traditional buffer protection with polymer liquid materials.
The result is much narrower bezels and a cleaner, more immersive look. LIPO also promises improved durability and better consistency during manufacturing, something we’ve previously seen Apple experiment with in its higher-end models.
Snapdragon 8 Elite 2, 7000mAh battery and more
While the design is a noticeable change, the OnePlus 15 isn’t holding back on performance either. Under the hood, it’s expected to run Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chip.
The chip features a custom Oryon CPU and a new Adreno 840 GPU with a 16MB dedicated cache. Powering the hardware is a battery reportedly over 7,000mAh, which would be among the largest capacities in a mainstream flagship. Likewise, charging might cap at 100W. It is also expected to feature other features, an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor, and an IP68/69-rated body.
The OnePlus 15 is currently set for an October launch and will reportedly debut alongside the OnePlus Ace 6.
