Deals: OnePlus 15R arrives, Galaxy S25 FE and S25 Edge get price cuts
"The OnePlus 15R shows up as "coming soon" on Amazon, though it should switch to "available" soon. This year's R-model brings a massive battery - 7,400mAh vs. 6,000mAh on the 13R - along with improved water resistance (IP68/IP69K vs. IP65). It also features the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 (non-Elite), up from the two-year-old Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. There have been some downgrades, however. First, the telephoto camera is gone, while the main camera (50MP 1/1.56", OIS) and ultra-wide camera (8MP) are the same."
"While looking at the 15R, we also need to consider the flagship OnePlus 15. It had some downgrades of its own compared to the 13. However, it's only $200 more than the 15R, so let's compare it with that (it has the same $100 gift card offer too). It does have an LTPO display and the proper Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, plus a similarly huge 7,300mAh battery with both 80W wired and 50W wireless charging. And it has a 50MP 3.5x/80mm periscope on board."
"The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge was a failed experiment, but leftover units are sold with a solid discount. It has a 6.7" LTPO OLED display with a higher pixel density than the OnePlus models. And the Snapdragon 8 Elite may be an older chip, but it outperforms the new vanilla Gen 5. There's no dedicated telephoto camera on here either, but there is a 200MP 1/1.3" main camera for in-sensor zoom."
January sees discounts on older phone models while new OnePlus devices emphasize larger batteries and upgraded chipsets. The OnePlus 15R gains a 7,400mAh battery, IP68/IP69K water resistance, and Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 but loses the telephoto camera and drops LTPO display tech. The OnePlus 15 adds an LTPO panel, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, a 7,300mAh battery with 80W wired and 50W wireless charging, and a 50MP periscope for a $200 premium. The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is discounted, offers a high-density LTPO OLED and 200MP main sensor, but suffers from a small 3,900mAh battery and short endurance.
