The OnePlus 15 has already been rumored to go through a significant redesign compared to its predecessor, with the big round camera island being replaced with a rectangular one that will be left-aligned at the top of its rear.
But that’s not all. Apparently, OnePlus is testing a “SuperBlack” colorway, which will be the blackest black we’ve ever seen on a smartphone, so black in fact that it will resemble a black hole. According to tipsters who have seen the prototype, it’s “far better looking than imagined”, for what it’s worth.

The OnePlus 15’s 6.78-inch display will get a resolution downgrade to “1.5K”, but might boast a higher refresh rate, and will come with extremely tiny and symmetrical bezels on all sides. They will be significantly smaller than on the OnePlus 13. The phone also has “upgraded multi-function buttons”, whatever that means, and the display’s quality is said to be excellent despite the lower resolution, with amazing brightness and detail levels and lower power consumption.
As you may have gathered, OnePlus is skipping the number 14 due to the presence of “4” which is considered bad luck in Chinese culture. The OnePlus 15 will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite 2, which is getting official in late September. It’s expected to sport a 7,000 mAh battery and a triple rear camera system with a 50 MP main snapper and a periscope zoom camera as well.
