OnePlus reveals compact flagship smartphone ahead of launch
What's the story
OnePlus has officially unveiled the design of its next compact flagship, the OnePlus 15T. The phone sports a flat back with a rounded square camera island in the top-left corner. The camera setup is simpler than other OnePlus flagships, featuring two rear sensors and an LED flash. The company has confirmed green and brown color options for the device.
Design details
The phone will be available in green and brown colors
The official images shared by OnePlus on Weibo show a clean, flat back with a smaller camera island than previous leaks suggested. The green variant appears to have a soft matte finish with a matching camera island, while the brown model leans toward a darker, more understated look. The rest of the design is minimalistic with flat sides, rounded corners and slim profile highlighting its compact size.
Specs overview
Compact flagship with Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip
The OnePlus 15T will sport a 6.32-inch flat OLED display, making it much more compact than most flagship phones with screens over 6.7-inch. Despite its smaller size, the display is said to have very thin bezels and rounded corners for comfortable handling. The device will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip with up to 16GB of RAM, making it one of the top Android phones on the market.
Power features
Massive battery with multiple fast charging options
The OnePlus 15T is expected to pack a massive 7,500mAh battery despite its smaller body. This is way bigger than what most full-sized flagship phones offer today. The phone is also rumored to support fast charging with 100W wired charging, 50W wireless charging and bypass charging capabilities.

Other expected highlights of the OnePlus 15T
The OnePlus 15T is also expected to come with a periscope telephoto camera with about 3.5x optical zoom, a feature usually found in bigger devices. As for durability, the phone is tipped to have IP66, IP68 and IP69 ratings which means it should be able to handle dust, water immersion and even high-pressure water jets.
