"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."
"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. This means I can change songs in the shower and text a friend near a pool without worrying about water getting inside the phone or interfering with my screen."
OnePlus 15 launches as a lower-cost flagship alternative to the Galaxy S25 Ultra, offering a big bright display, Qualcomm flagship processor, and a huge battery. OnePlus 15 carries both IP68 and IP69 dust and water resistance, while the Galaxy S25 Ultra has IP68. IP69 covers high-temperature water jets up to 80°C, increasing resilience. The OnePlus 15 display maintains touch interaction when covered in water droplets, enabling use in drizzle, showers, or near pools. Samsung and Apple phones can register false touches in wet conditions, requiring users to wipe screens. OnePlus 15 allows changing songs and texting without water interference.
