OnePlus 15T: Key Specifications

First, the OnePlus 15T is confirmed to feature a 6.32-inch OLED screen with a refresh rate of up to 165Hz. The handset should also come with visibly thinner bezels than its predecessor: at 1.1mm.

Like the OnePlus 15, the OnePlus 15T will also feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC, but with the company’s “Tri-Chip” design. What exactly does it entail? The main chip is combined with the OP Gaming Core (which enhances gaming performance), a dedicated touch-response chip (for an instantaneous sampling rate of up to 3200 Hz), and the G2 Wi-Fi chip.

Despite its smaller form factor, the OnePlus 15T will feature a 7,500 mAh Glacier Battery, which is larger than the batteries on the OnePlus 15 (review) and OnePlus 15R (review). The handset supports 200W fast charging and 50W wireless charging, which should help refuel the battery within an hour.

Although OnePlus hasn’t revealed much information about the OnePlus 15T’s camera system, except that it will include a 3.5x optical zoom camera, rumors suggest that the smartphone could come with two 50MP sensors (primary + telephoto).

Furthermore, the smartphone should be rated IP66, IP68, and IP69.
