OnePlus pauses plans for future compact phones, tip says

Tipster Digital Chat Station says OnePlus does not plan to update its small-screen phone; a successor to the OnePlus 15T is not coming soon.

The tipster posted the claim today without giving a reason or a timeline. He added that users should expect a wide-screen OnePlus phone instead but did not name a model or share specifications. OnePlus has not commented. Treat this as a tip for now.

The OnePlus 15T remains the company's most recent compact model. It debuted in March as the successor to the OnePlus 13T.

The 15T uses a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip and has a 7,500mAh battery. The display measures 6.32 inches; the phone is 71.82mm wide and weighs about 194g. OnePlus kept the bezels to 1.1mm on all four sides to keep the body narrow while maintaining screen size.

The rear camera sits in a cube-shaped metal module and houses a 50MP main sensor and a 50MP 3.5x telephoto lens. The front camera is 16MP.

The 15T supports 100W wired charging and 50W wireless charging.

In China the phone runs ColorOS 16 on Android 16. It carries an IP69K rating and an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor. Connectivity includes Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, and NFC.

The 15T did not receive a global launch and remained China-exclusive. In China it starts at 4,299 yuan, about $645, for the 12GB RAM and 256GB storage model.

For now the OnePlus 15T is the only small OnePlus phone on sale, even in China. We will update this story when OnePlus confirms any plans.
