OnePlus 15 Price in India (Leaked)
According to a leak on X (formerly Twitter), the base model of the OnePlus 15 with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage is expected to be priced at ₹72,999. The higher-end variant, featuring 16GB RAM and 512GB storage, could retail for ₹76,999.
Meanwhile, a report from one of the well-known TV news portals claims the leak originated from a trusted retailer. The report also adds that early buyers might receive a free pair of OnePlus Nord earbuds worth around ₹2,699 as part of a promotional bundle.
Although OnePlus hasn’t confirmed any pricing officially, several reports suggest the launch price will remain below ₹75,000, aligning closely with the launch price of the OnePlus 13, which debuted at ₹69,999 before dropping to around ₹63,999.
Seeing a lot of tweets talking about smartphone pricing going up!
Yes, while a price hike is not what we want but looking at the economical factors and cost of components, I feel smartphone brands are doing enough to ensure consumers get absolute value.
Since the first flagship…

Launch Event and Early Access Sale
The OnePlus 15 launch event is scheduled for November 13 and will be live-streamed on the brand’s official channels. Before the official sale begins, OnePlus will host a special one-hour “early access” sale, giving fans an exclusive chance to purchase the phone ahead of its public release.
The smartphone will be available via Amazon India, the OnePlus online store, and authorised retail outlets across the country.
OnePlus 13 Price Cut Before OnePlus 15 Launch: Should You Wait?
Ahead of the new launch, the OnePlus 13 has received a ₹6,000 price cut, bringing it down to ₹63,999 on Amazon, Croma, and the OnePlus website. Originally launched at ₹69,999 in January, this discount gives potential buyers a tempting alternative just before the OnePlus 15’s arrival.
So, the question is should you go for this reduced priced OnePlus 13, which is a season old? Or, should you wait for a few more days and get yourself a brand new and future ready OnePlus 15?
Let’s find out!
Upcoming OnePlus 15 VS Predecessor OnePlus 13
Design-wise, the OnePlus 13 featured a premium eco-leather back, while the upcoming OnePlus 15 will sport a matte glass finish and a square camera module, replacing the previous circular design. The new model is also slightly slimmer at 8.1mm compared to the 13’s 8.5mm, though both weigh under 215 grams.

The OnePlus 15 is said to feature a 6.78-inch LTPO AMOLED display made by BOE with a 165Hz refresh rate and 1.5K resolution. By comparison, the OnePlus 13 offered a 6.82-inch 2K LTPO AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. While the bump to 165Hz might sound impressive, most apps and games are still optimised for 120Hz, meaning the real-world difference could be minimal. However, the brighter 1,800-nit peak brightness on the OnePlus 15 (up from 1,600 nits) will improve outdoor visibility.
Camera-wise, the OnePlus 15 retains a triple 50MP setup similar to its predecessor but swaps out the Sony LYT808 sensor for a Sony IMX906. It also introduces a 3.5x periscope zoom lens, compared to the 13’s 3x zoom. This year, OnePlus is moving away from Hasselblad branding, replacing it with its own DetailMax Engine, which promises “improved clarity and realism through computation.”
Powering the new flagship is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip paired with UFS 4.1 storage, while the OnePlus 13 used the previous-gen Snapdragon 8 Elite with UFS 4.0. The newer processor is expected to deliver better power efficiency and smoother multitasking.
Battery performance sees a major upgrade, with the OnePlus 15 packing a 7,300mAh silicon-carbon cell that supports 120W wired and 50W wireless charging. The OnePlus 13, in comparison, had a 6,000mAh battery with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging. Both phones promise all-day battery life, but the 15’s larger capacity gives it the upper hand.
Software-wise, the OnePlus 15 will ship with Android 16, while the OnePlus 13 runs on Android 15. Both devices feature AI-enhanced tools and promise long-term software updates.
Verdict – Should You Wait for OnePlus 15 or Buy the Discounted OnePlus 13?
At ₹63,999, the OnePlus 13 remains an excellent value flagship with a proven design and reliable camera system. However, for those who can wait, the OnePlus 15 appears to be the more future-ready option, offering new hardware, better battery life, and a brighter display.
Basically, all for an expected price similar to the OnePlus 13’s original launch tag.
