"The OnePlus 15 is IP68 and IP69 rated for dust and water resistance, whereas the Galaxy S25 Ultra offers an IP68 rating. For the unaware, IP68 is for submersion, while the latter is for water jets at temperatures up to 80°C, ensuring the device can withstand even more extreme conditions. These are more important in day-to-day use, thanks to a screen that can withstand water droplets."
"You can't use a Samsung or Apple phone's screen in a drizzle or around the pool because the water droplets register fake touches. I could be replying to a text message and have to wipe off the screen consistently to get my message right. By contrast, the OnePlus 15's display allows you to interact with the screen even when it's covered in water droplets."
OnePlus 15 launches earlier and positions itself as a flagship challenger to the Galaxy S25 Ultra while undercutting the base price unless configured with extra storage and RAM. The OnePlus 15 delivers a big, bright display, the latest Qualcomm flagship processor, a huge battery, and advanced water and dust protection with IP68 and IP69 ratings. IP69 provides resistance to high-temperature water jets up to 80°C, and the display remains responsive when covered in water droplets. The Galaxy S25 Ultra still retains advantages that can justify its higher price for some buyers.
