The OnePlus 15R will be launched on December 17, along with the OnePlus Pad Go 2. It will be unveiled in the country as the second handset in the lineup after the OnePlus 15 debuted on November 13.
OnePlus 15R Price , Availability (Expected)
OnePlus 15R price has yet to be revealed by the company. In China, pricing for the OnePlus Ace 6T starts at CNY 2,599 (roughly Rs. 33,000) for the base variant. It is worth noting that this price does not account for purchasing power parity adjustments, local taxes, and the rising costs of DRAM and other smartphone components, and the price of the handset could be higher.
However, it is also expected to be priced below the flagship OnePlus 15, which was launched at Rs. 72,999 for the base variant with 12GB RAM + 256GB storage. Additionally, it is said to be a rebranded version of the OnePlus Ace 6T, which costs CNY 2,599 (roughly Rs. 33,000) for the base variant with 12GB RAM and 256GB of built-in storage.
The OnePlus 15R is confirmed to be available for purchase in the country in Charcoal Black and Minty Green colour options via Amazon and the OnePlus India online store. It could go on sale via offline retail stores, too.
