OnePlus 15 Elevates “Fast and Smooth” with Triple-Chip Performance, 165 Hz Screen, and 7,300 mAh Battery
OnePlus is pushing the boundaries of what a flagship phone can deliver. The newly unveiled OnePlus 15 — set to launch globally on November 13 — brings together a 165 Hz LTPO display, an advanced triple-chip architecture, and a massive 7,300 mAh battery. Built to deliver speed that lasts, this device represents what OnePlus calls a “two-generation leap” in responsiveness and reliability.

A Display That Keeps Everything Fluid
Right out of the box, the 6.78-inch 1.5K LTPO display stands out. Running at a buttery 165 Hz refresh rate, it makes every swipe, scroll, and animation look exceptionally smooth. It’s the first smartphone screen to support 165 fps natively in popular games like Call of Duty: Mobile, Brawl Stars, and Clash of Clans.
Beyond speed, the panel delivers top-tier visuals: 1,800 nits of peak brightness, deep blacks at just 1 nit, and accurate colors that stay consistent in any light. Eye comfort is also a priority — the display is TÜV Rheinland Intelligent Eye Care 5.0 certified and includes adaptive modes that help reduce strain during long viewing sessions.

Triple-Chip Architecture: No Lag, All Speed
Inside the OnePlus 15 lies a sophisticated triple-chip setup designed to eliminate bottlenecks:
- The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 handles heavy lifting for system performance.
- A dedicated touch chip enables 3,200 Hz touch sampling — so every swipe and tap registers instantly.
- A separate Wi-Fi chip maintains strong, low-latency connections even in crowded areas.
Combined with optimizations in OxygenOS 16, this trio ensures seamless performance whether you’re multitasking, streaming HDR video, or running two games at once. OnePlus claims the phone can sustain 120 fps gameplay with zero dropped frames, while a custom ±4,000 DPS gyroscope adds precision to every movement.

Stay Cool Under Pressure
All that power requires serious cooling. The 360° Cryo-Velocity Cooling System uses a 5,731 mm² vapor chamber, aerospace-grade aerogel, and white graphite layers to spread heat evenly. Whether you’re gaming for hours or charging at high speed, the phone stays cool to the touch — a key part of OnePlus’s performance-first approach.
Battery Life That Goes the Distance
Powering the OnePlus 15 is a 7,300 mAh Silicon NanoStack battery — the largest ever in a OnePlus flagship. With a 15% silicon anode mix, it offers higher energy density and better long-term durability.
Charging is just as impressive: 120W wired SUPERVOOC and 50W AIRVOOC wireless charging deliver lightning-fast top-ups. A Bypass Charging mode also lets you power the phone directly during intense gaming, reducing heat and extending battery lifespan. OnePlus says the battery will retain over 80% capacity after four years and remains functional even at -20°C. The phone is fully rated for IP66, IP68, IP69, and IP69K water and dust resistance.
