The newest OnePlus phone might actually be cheaper than the last one.
That’s according to one prominent leaker, anyway. @MysteryLupin on X posted that the 16GB RAM/512GB storage variant of the upcoming OnePlus 15 will retail for £949 in the U.K., which comes out to about $1,266 USD.
There are two bits of good news here: One is that £949 is actually cheaper than the £999 price point for the equivalent version of the OnePlus 13, and another is that the U.K. OnePlus price was higher than the U.S. price last year, for whatever reason. In other words, U.K. customers are getting a small price cut, and the 16GB/512GB version may not actually cost $1,266 in the U.S. when it launches later this year.

Of course, until OnePlus releases official price points, take any leaks with a grain of salt. It shouldn’t be long now, though, as OnePlus is set to launch the phone in its home country of China on Oct. 27, with a global launch expected shortly after in November.
As for specs, we don’t have to rely as much on leaks here because OnePlus has already officially announced much of what to expect from this phone. We already know it will be the first North American phone running on the cutting-edge Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, with a massive 7,300mAh battery inside it. It’ll also have three 50MP cameras on the rear, a 165Hz OLED display, and up to 120W wired and 50W wireless charging speeds, per Android Authority.
If OnePlus can manage to set the U.S. price at an agreeable level despite all of those specs and whatever is currently happening with U.S. tariff policies, the OnePlus 15 might be a seriously enticing option for the non-iOS crowd.
