OnePlus 15R: Modern Design, Rugged Durability Revealed
21 Jan
Summary
- The OnePlus 15R features a modern, flat-sided design akin to flagship models.
- It boasts IP68, IP69, and IP69K ratings for extreme water and heat resistance.
- The device offers a sturdy, sleek feel with an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor.
The OnePlus 15R introduces a design characterized by flat sides and a squarish camera bump, diverging from its predecessor's softer contours. This modern approach aligns it with current industry trends set by devices like the iPhone 17 and Galaxy S25.
Measuring 6.43 by 3.03 by 0.33 inches, the 15R offers a substantial yet sleek feel in hand, weighing approximately 7.55 ounces depending on the color variant. Its construction features an aluminum frame seamlessly integrating with Corning Gorilla Glass 7i on the front and glass on the rear.
A standout feature is its robust durability, evidenced by IP68, IP69, and IP69K ratings. This means the OnePlus 15R can withstand not only dust and water submersion but also high-pressure, heated water jets, surpassing the protection offered by many competitors.
Functionally, the device places the power button and volume rocker on the right side, with the assignable Plus Key on the left. The bottom houses the SIM tray, USB-C port, and speaker grille. For security, an ultrasonic under-display fingerprint sensor performed reliably during testing. The Mint Breeze color option provides a subtle, appealing aesthetic.
