- OnePlus has confirmed that the OnePlus 15R will launch on December 17
- The OnePlus Pad Go 2 and the OnePlus Watch Lite will also be unveiled then
- Pre-ordering the phone or tablet will get you discounts and freebies
The OnePlus 15 only landed a few weeks ago, but despite the year being almost over, OnePlus isn’t done with launches yet, as it has announced that three more devices are arriving on December 17.
The headline product is the OnePlus 15R, which is expected to be a slightly lower-end but still fairly high-spec alternative to the OnePlus 15. The company hasn’t said much about it yet, but has revealed that it will be sold in Charcoal Black and Mint Breeze (green) shades, that it will have a metal frame, and that it will have IP66, IP68, IP69, and IP69K ratings.
Most phones only have one water resistance rating, with flagships specifically tending to be IP68 rated. That means they can withstand being submerged in up to 1.5 meters of water for up to 30 minutes. But the additional ratings here mean the OnePlus 15R can also withstand high-pressure and high-temperature water jets.
Leaks, meanwhile, suggest that the OnePlus 15R could have a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset (but not the ‘Elite’ version), a dual-lens 50MP camera, a 165Hz screen, and an 8,000mAh battery – the last of which would even have the 7,300mAh OnePlus 15 beat.
Other devices and pre-order perks
As well as that, the company will also be announcing the OnePlus Watch Lite and the OnePlus Pad Go 2 on December 17, with the latter of those set to be sold in Shadow Black and Lavender Drift shades. We also know that it will support 5G, have an anti-glare glass finish, and come with an integrated stylus.
If this phone or tablet sounds appealing, then you’ll be pleased to hear that OnePlus has also planned some pre-order perks. Specifically, if you pre-order the OnePlus 15R in the UK, you’ll get a £100 discount, plus a free 120W adapter kit and a sandstone magnetic case. You’ll also get a coupon worth up to £100 when you trade in.
With the OnePlus Pad Go 2, you can save £50 if you pre-order, as well as get a free watch worth £249, and an extra £30 off with a trade-in. Plus, verified students and corporate users will get an extra 10% off either device.
We’re expecting similar promotions to be offered in the US and other regions, so mark December 17 in your calendar if you want to learn more.
