"The screen? 1272p+ instead of 1440p+. The camera? Smaller sensors in the main (1/1.56" vs. 1/1.43") and the telephoto module (1/2.76" vs. 1/1.95"). The price? Basically the same. And that is the central point of the argument - the OnePlus 15 costs about as much as a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra right now. Sure, it has the newer chipset (but the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 clearly ate up a lot of the budget)"
"There are two groups that are currently unhappy with the OnePlus 15. One group wants a capable flagship and the OnePlus 13 was quite capable in their eyes - the 15 with its downgraded cameras, however, feels lacking. The other group wants a value-for-money flagship and thinks that the downgrades on the 15 should have come with a corresponding price cut. The former group is looking at picking up a OnePlus 13 or paying extra for an Oppo, vivo, Xiaomi or other flagship."
The OnePlus 15 presents lower display and camera specifications than the OnePlus 13 while maintaining a similar price and adding a newer chipset and a very large 7,300mAh battery. The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 appears to have absorbed significant budget, contributing to perceived component downgrades. Two buyer groups are dissatisfied: those seeking top-tier camera capability and those seeking flagship value. Some buyers are reverting to the OnePlus 13 or upgrading to other brands, while others are exploring more affordable competitors. The Realme GT 8 Pro adds competitive camera upgrades, and OnePlus may rely on discounts.
