OnePlus has quietly introduced a new variant of the OnePlus 15R in India, giving buyers another option in the performance-focused smartphone lineup. While the handset remains unchanged in terms of design and hardware, the latest configuration increases the available memory, catering to users who need more headroom for gaming, multitasking and AI-powered workloads.
New variant pricing and availability
The new OnePlus 15R (review) variant pairs 16GB RAM with 512GB storage and is priced at Rs 61,999 (~$655). It joins the existing 12GB+256GB and 12GB+512GB models, which are currently available at Rs 54,999 (~$580) and Rs 59,999 (~$635), respectively. The smartphone can be purchased through the company’s online store as well as Amazon India.
The handset continues to be offered in Charcoal Black, Mint Breeze and Electric Violet colour options. The launch of a higher-memory version comes at a time when several brands are limiting RAM configurations due to rising memory costs across the industry. Despite that trend, OnePlus has opted to expand the 15R lineup with a more capable option.
Apart from the RAM upgrade, the OnePlus 15R retains the same specifications as the existing variants. It features a 6.83-inch AMOLED display with a 1272 x 2800 resolution, a 165Hz refresh rate and Gorilla Glass 7i protection. The phone is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset and is paired with up to 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage.
For photography, the device includes a 50-megapixel primary camera with optical image stabilisation, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide sensor and a 32-megapixel front camera. It packs a 7,400mAh battery with support for 80W wired fast charging and runs OxygenOS 16 based on Android 16. The smartphone also carries IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings for dust and water resistance.
