In summary
- OnePlus 15R teased as ‘Coming Soon’
- ‘OnePlus New Watch’ also mentioned
- Only a sketch for the latter
OnePlus has started teasing the launch of its next almost-flagship smartphone, the OnePlus 15R, but that isn’t the most exciting thing here.
The OnePlus 15 launched recently to rave reviews, but there’s another handset in the mix. The OnePlus 15R promises to offer a similarly epic level of stamina with only a slightly step down in performance, all at a significantly lower price.
We don’t know everything about the OnePlus 15R just yet, but OnePlus has started teasing the phone. Over on the official OnePlus 15R web page we get a glimpse at its design, in both black and green.

What to expect from the OnePlus 15R
As we were expecting, the OnePlus 15R looks a lot like the OnePlus Ace 6 that has already launched in China.
That phone launched with a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, a massive 7800mAh battery, 120W fast charging, a 50Mp main camera, and an 8Mp ultra-wide. Will the OnePlus 15R follow suit, or change things up on the internal spec count?
The official website says only that the OnePlus 15R is “Coming Soon”, so we’ll have to wait and see.

OnePlus New Watch
Even more interesting here is a tab labelled OnePlus New Watch, indicating that the company is preparing to launch a new smartwatch.
Will this be the OnePlus Watch 4 or something else? Given that the OnePlus Watch 3 only launched in March, and the positioning of this alongside the more affordable OnePlus 15R smartphone, we suspect the latter.
Might it be a OnePlus-branded equivalent of the Oppo Watch S – itself a super-skinny alternative to the Oppo Watch 2 – which launched last month? That sounds more likely.
OnePlus only offers a sketched outline of the New Watch, so there isn’t too much to draw from here. We’ll keep you posted.
