OnePlus 15R review on Android Central.
OnePlus 15R

Not what we expected

The OnePlus 15R is not the value flagship we were hoping for. While it does offer a few features that have improved over the 13R, the higher price and lack of critical features makes this quite a disappointing release.

Pros

  • Bright AMOLED panel
  • Great battery life
  • Good performance
  • IP68 and IP69 water resistance

Cons

  • No telephoto lens
  • Underwhelming cameras
  • Costs more than the 13R
  • Bland design
  • No 16GB model this time
OnePlus 13R

Grab it while you can

The OnePlus 13R is $100 cheaper than the 15R and you get a dedicated telephoto camera here. It's just as powerful, lighter, charges at the same rate, and comes with a brighter AMOLED display.

Pros

  • More durable design
  • Terrific hardware
  • Upgraded main camera
  • Outstanding battery life
  • Comes with 256GB storage as standard
  • Fluid software

Cons

  • Takes nearly an hour to charge
  • Auxiliary cameras still not as good as main lens
  • Water resistance limited to IP65
