OnePlus 15 Teased in Three Stunning Colours Ahead of October 27 Launch
The wait is almost over! OnePlus has officially started teasing its upcoming flagship, the OnePlus 15, revealing three new colour options that are already creating buzz online. Set to launch on October 27 in China, this next-gen smartphone promises top-tier performance, an industry-first display, and a refreshed design that feels both bold and refined.
OnePlus 15: Launch Details You Should Know
The OnePlus 15 will debut in China on October 27 at 7:00 PM local time (4:30 PM IST), alongside the OnePlus Ace 6. Global fans won’t have to wait long either, as reports suggest that international and Indian launch events are scheduled for November 13. Pre-reservations are already live on OnePlus’ official Chinese store and JD.com.
New Colours That Steal the Show
OnePlus has confirmed that the OnePlus 15 will arrive in Absolute Black, Mist Purple, and a unique Original Sand Dune finish inspired by natural desert tones. The Mist Purple variant, with its soft matte finish, looks particularly elegant and stands out as a crowd favorite. Compared to the OnePlus 13’s blue and white tones, this lineup feels more premium and sophisticated.
Honestly, I think the new Sand Dune version gives the phone a warm, earthy vibe—perfect for those who love subtle luxury.
Gorgeous Design with a Modern Touch
The official teasers show a sleek design with curved edges and a central hole-punch front camera. On the back, OnePlus has moved away from its circular module and adopted a square-shaped camera island with rounded corners, giving the device a more balanced, contemporary look.
The ultra-thin bezels (just 1.15mm on all sides) make it feel almost bezel-less, while the curved glass design adds to its flagship appeal. It feels somewhat like the Galaxy S24 Ultra in the hand—slim, solid, and expensive.
World’s First 165Hz QHD OLED Display
The OnePlus 15 is confirmed to feature a BOE third-generation Flexible “Oriental Display”, making it the world’s first smartphone to offer a 165Hz QHD OLED panel. The screen is brighter, sharper, and more energy-efficient than ever before, with 13% better peak brightness and 11.8% higher color accuracy.
It also introduces a True Hardware 1-nit Dark Night Display mode for eye comfort at night, along with Oppo’s new P3 Display Chip that enhances motion and contrast. If you’re someone who watches Netflix or games a lot on your phone, this display is going to feel incredible.
Power and Performance
Under the hood, the OnePlus 15 runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, the most powerful processor in the Android world right now. It’s expected to be paired with up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. The phone will run on Android 16-based ColorOS 16 in China and OxygenOS 16 globally.
Expect faster app loads, buttery-smooth multitasking, and improved battery efficiency. I think this will easily be one of the fastest Android phones of 2025.
Expected Price and Availability
While OnePlus hasn’t revealed official pricing yet, industry sources suggest it could start around ₹69,999 in India and $899 globally, placing it in the same range as the iPhone 16 and Galaxy S25. For a phone offering a 165Hz display and the latest Snapdragon chip, that’s a pretty solid deal.
