In addition, it was a telephone recently confirmed having a large 7500 mAh battery. OnePlus has now added that it also supports 100W fast wired charging, gaining support for fast wireless charging at 50W, which was missing from the previous generation.
Meanwhile, OnePlus has already confirmed that the display measures 6.32 inches and has an AMOLED panel with a 165Hz refresh rate. The phone will also reportedly have minimal bezels around the display, measuring just 1.1mm thick. The display is also equipped with an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, which is an improvement over the optical scanner in previous generations.
The 15T also gets a 50MP primary camera on the back, along with OnePlus’ proprietary LUMO image engine that first debuted with the OnePlus 15. The phone lacks any major design changes, but gets improved durability from the 13T with IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings. The phone is also confirmed to come in three colors with catchy names: Cozy Matcha, Healing White Chocolate and Pure Cocoa.
While OnePlus has confirmed its release for China, there is no word on global availability. Last year, the OnePlus 13T was rebranded as the 13S and sold only in India. We are not sure if the availability trend will continue this year or if it will expand to more markets.
