- Photos have surfaced showing what seems to be the OnePlus 15, revealing a major change in camera design.
- The circular camera setup from the OnePlus 13 is gone, replaced by a square block with three lenses and a round flash.
- Two colors are shown: soft white and gentle pink, both with a clean, simple finish.
- Launch may happen in October, likely beginning in China before a global rollout.
In the floating markets of Velltara, whispers spread that the OnePlus 15 has appeared in its true form for the first time. On the grand network of Weibo, the Peace Elite League showed players holding a phone unlike any model we know.
Though the name OnePlus 15 was nowhere written, every feature pointed to something fresh. The shape of the camera block, its size, its colors all spoke of a new arrival rather than a reincarnation of yesterday.
Another reveal came from OnePlusClub on X. A second image, perhaps leaked, perhaps intended, displayed the same device from a different angle. It matched the first picture so closely that few doubted it was the same phone. The design may be real; the intrigue is high.
Farewell to the Signature Circle
If you have loved the perfect round camera ring of the OnePlus 13, you may feel a flicker of loss. The photos show that the OnePlus 15 does not carry that hallmark circle. Instead, there is a more regular square block to contain its lenses.
Three lenses appear. Two sit inside a dark, long oval shape. A third stands alone. Beside them, a flash ring glimmers, a small moon beside stars in the black sky of glass.
This shift is more than cosmetic. It draws the OnePlus 15 closer to what other makers have done. It trades the bold and unique for something more familiar. Some will call it safe. Others may call it wise.
Colors of Dawn: White and Pink
The leaked photos reveal two shades. One is a soft white, almost like moonlight on morning dew. The other is pink, gentle and warm like rose petals at sunrise. Neither shade has loud texture or shimmering patterns. Both retain simplicity.
They let the camera block stand out. They hold back so that the shape and form of the phone become the stars of the show.
What We Still Don’t Know
Even now, much remains hidden behind the mist. These photos only reveal the back. The front, the screen, the edges are shadowed. No sign yet of what its display will look like. No hint of size, of curves, or of thickness.
Hardware and internals are still secret. Launch date seems to hover at some point in October. OnePlus may show it first in China, the rest of the world might wait.
Why Some Call It Underwhelming
The new camera block is neat. It works. Yet some voices in the corridors of tech say it lacks the joy, the spark that we saw in earlier models. The circular design of the 13 was different. It stood out. It felt bold. To trade that for square may feel like trading poetry for plain speech. The eyes notice change quickly. The loss of design identity can sting.
Still, others believe OnePlus may be putting more effort where it matters: performance, battery, software. Appearance alone seldom tells the whole tale. We will know when the lights rise in full reveal. Until then, what we have are questions and hopes.
