With this upgrade, the OnePlus 15R matches the flagship OnePlus 15, which also features a 32-megapixel selfie camera with autofocus. However, while the OnePlus 15 uses a Sony IMX709 sensor for the front camera, the OnePlus 15R is rumoured to rely on an OmniVision sensor.

OnePlus has also confirmed that the OnePlus 15R will be the first R Series smartphone to support 4K video recording at 30fps using the front camera. By comparison, the previous-generation OnePlus 13R featured a 16-megapixel selfie camera limited to 1080p video recording.

As confirmed earlier, the OnePlus 15R will sport a 1.5K AMOLED display with a 165Hz refresh rate, matching the flagship OnePlus 15. The company claims the panel offers a pixel density of 450 PPI and a peak brightness of 1,800 nits with brightness levels ranging from as low as 2 nits up to 1,800 nits.

The Detailmax Engine, which made its debut on the OnePlus 15, will also be available on the OnePlus 15R. It is said to enable three advanced camera features, which are Ultra Clear Mode, Clear Burst, and the Clear Night Engine.

On the performance front, the OnePlus 15R will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset. OnePlus claims it will be the first smartphone to launch with this processor, which has been co-optimised with Qualcomm. The device is also confirmed to feature the new G2 Wi-Fi chip and a dedicated Touch Response Chip.

The OnePlus 15R will pack a massive 7,400mAh battery, making it the largest battery ever used in a OnePlus smartphone in India. According to the company, the battery will retain up to 80 per cent of its capacity even after four years of use.
