TL;DR OnePlus’ next small phone just leaked, and it packs big upgrades.

The OnePlus 15T is expected to feature a larger battery, an improved fingerprint scanner, and a new Snapdragon chipset.

The sad part, though, is that OnePlus might not launch it in the US.

The OnePlus 15 is peeking at us through the horizon. After launching in China this month, the phone is set to arrive globally next month with a mixed bag of upgrades and downgrades. Meanwhile, OnePlus is cooking another phone that could be all upgrades. Although it won’t arrive until next year, a leak has provided clarity about its tentative specifications.

Leaker Digital Chat Station recently shared details about an upcoming small phone from OnePlus. Based on the screen size, we presume the leaker is discussing the successor to the OnePlus 13T, which launched globally as the OnePlus 13S. Therefore, it could be speculated to be called the OnePlus 15T or 15S, in line with the naming convention for the recently launched flagship.

The leaker suggests the OnePlus 15T would be powered by Qualcomm’s upcoming chipset for flagship killers. We’re talking about the yet-to-be-released Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 (non-Elite variant), which was also leaked earlier this week.

The small OnePlus phone reportedly features the same 6.31-inch display with a 1.5K resolution but is slated to receive leaner bezels measuring equally on all four sides. We haven’t heard about any upgrades to the brightness or features to prevent eye fatigue, as with the recently announced OnePlus 15.
