More details about the OnePlus 15T surface online

New specifications for OnePlus' upcoming 15T smartphone have surfaced through leaks from Digital Chat Station on Weibo. The device appears positioned as a refined upgrade over its predecessor, maintaining OnePlus' tradition of mid-cycle hardware refreshes.

The leaked details indicate the OnePlus 15T will weigh 194 grams and feature three color options: Relaxing Matcha, Healing White Chocolate, and Pure Cocoa. Storage configurations reportedly include five variants: 12GB RAM with 256GB storage, 12GB/512GB, 16GB/256GB, 16GB/512GB, and a premium 16GB/1TB option catering to power users needing extensive storage.

At the core of the device sits Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, continuing OnePlus' partnership with the chipmaker. The display maintains the compact 6.31-inch form factor seen in previous T-series models, featuring symmetrical ultra-narrow bezels and a 1.5K resolution panel with 165Hz refresh rate. This combination prioritizes both portability and smooth visual performance.

Security features include an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner, representing an upgrade over optical sensors through faster recognition and improved performance with wet fingers. Imaging capabilities reportedly retain the telephoto camera from previous models, though specifics about sensor improvements remain unconfirmed.

The device is expected to carry IP68 certification for dust and water resistance, alongside support for wireless charging. Battery capacity sees a notable increase to at least 7,000mAh, potentially addressing previous battery life limitations. This capacity significantly exceeds many current flagship devices while remaining lower than the 9,000mAh batteries featured in OnePlus' recent Turbo series.

Consistent with OnePlus' regional naming strategy, the device may launch as the OnePlus 15s in India. If previous release patterns hold, availability could begin in early Q2 2026. These leaks suggest OnePlus continues refining its balanced approach to performance, battery life, and premium features within the T-series lineup.
