Overview
- OnePlus launched a new 16GB RAM with 512GB storage OnePlus 15R on Wednesday, June 17, priced at Rs. 61,999 and listed for sale on the OnePlus India online store and Amazon India.
- The company keeps the existing 12GB models on sale at their prior prices of Rs. 54,999 for 12GB/256GB and Rs. 59,999 for 12GB/512GB.
- Aside from the extra RAM, the 16GB variant shares the same hardware as earlier models, including a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chip, 6.83‑inch 165Hz AMOLED screen, 50MP main camera with OIS, and a 7,400mAh battery with 80W wired charging.
- OnePlus has not announced U.S. or broader international availability for the 16GB tier, and recent reporting notes the company has been adjusting its retail footprint in some Western markets, which could affect any wider rollout.
- The move bucks a wider industry trend of cutting top‑end memory options because of rising RAM prices driven by AI data‑center demand, a dynamic that can push up phone costs and limit high‑RAM choices for consumers.
