The upcoming OnePlus 15R and the OnePlus Pad Go 2 are all set to be launched in India today. It will be a big launch event for OnePlus. The China-based smartphone brand has also revealed several key features of the upcoming devices ahead of their official launch in Bengaluru.
Where to watch the live stream?
OnePlus will stream its latest launch event live at 7 PM IST (8:30 AM EST). Viewers can watch the event on the OnePlus India YouTube channel, with the live-stream link embedded for easy access.
OnePlus Pad Go 2 Price
The OnePlus Pad Go began at a price of Rs.19,999 in India and one would assume a similar price range could be for its successor. This would also make sense given that OnePlus already sells a OnePlus Pad Lite for around Rs.15,000 and the OnePlus Pad 2 from last year sells around the Rs.30,000 mark
One Plus 15R Price
According to tipster Paras Guglani, the OnePlus 15R price in India will start from anywhere between Rs 45,999 or Rs 46,999 for the base 12GB/256GB model. Moreover, the handset will also come in a 12GB/512GB configuration that could cost Rs 51,999.
Paras Guglani claims that these prices won’t include bank offers, that could offer a further Rs 3,000 to Rs 4,000 discount on the OnePlus 15R. The OnePlus 15R will come in Charcoal Black and Minty Green shades.
OnePlus 15R Processor
Inside, OnePlus 15R is expected to be powered by the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset the same chip that OnePlus says it co-enginnered with Snapdragon. Since it gives good balance of speed and efficiency. The final RAM and storage options aren’t fully confirmed yet, but the chipset choice suggests performance close to flagship-level devices.
Battery and Faster Charging
One of the major upgrades on the 15R is a big 7,400 mAh battery the largest ever in a OnePlus phone. This means longer battery life for day-long use without frequent charging. The phone is also expected to support 80 W fast wired charging, which should refresh the battery quickly when needed.
Display
The OnePlus 15R will have a 1.5K AMOLED display with a 165 Hz refresh rate, just like a premium flagship. This translates to smooth scrolling, fast animations and a better gaming experience. The panel is also said to reach up to 1,800 nits brightness, so outdoor viewing should be good. On the other hand, it can dim down to 1 nit for comfortable night use. Eye-comfort certification is expected too, which could help reduce strain during long usage.
Cameras
On the rear, the 15R reportedly carries a dual-camera setup, with a 50 MP main lens and an 8 MP ultrawide lens. While the complete sensor details are not yet official, the phone is confirmed to support 4K video recording at 120 frames per second. This is a capability that previously was reserved for high-end models. This makes video shooting smoother and more cinematic.
Design and Durability
In terms of build, the 15R is expected to feature a sleek, flat-edged design with choices like Black and a new Green finish. It may also come with dust and water resistance certifications (IP66/IP68), so it should handle everyday wear and weather reasonably well.
OnePlus Pad Go 2 Processor
Under the hood, the tablet is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300-Ultra, a clear step up from the Helio G99 chip used previously. While real-world performance will be known after launch, this upgrade should result in smoother multitasking and better handling of heavier apps. The Pad Go 2 will run Android 16-based OxygenOS 16 out of the box, with benchmarks pointing to an 8GB RAM configuration.
OnePlus Pad Go 2 Display
The Pad Go 2 features a 12.1-inch screen with a sharper 2800 x 1980 resolution and a 7:5 aspect ratio, which should work well for reading documents, browsing, and split-screen tasks. OnePlus is also highlighting an 88.5 percent screen-to-body ratio and a claimed peak brightness of 900nits in high-brightness mode.
OnePlus Pad Go 2 Battery
Battery life is another area where OnePlus is making bold claims. The Pad Go 2 packs a 10,050mAh battery with support for 33W SuperVOOC charging. Interestingly, a 45W charger will be included in the box, even though charging speeds remain capped at 33W. OnePlus says users can expect up to 15 hours of video playback, 53 hours of music playback, and as much as 60 days of standby.
