Quick answer: Yes, if you want the longest battery life and the fastest chip in a flagship for less than a Galaxy S26 Ultra or an iPhone Pro, from Rs. 189,999 (non-PTA, 12GB/256GB). Skip it if you want a top zoom camera or Qi2 magnetic wireless charging: the 3.5x telephoto weakens beyond 30x and the phone has no magnets.
The OnePlus 15 (from Rs. 189,999, checked 9 Nov 2026) is OnePlus's 2025 flagship. Its strengths are the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, a 7300 mAh battery that lasted 25 hours 13 minutes in Future Labs' full-drain test, 120W charging with a charger in the box, a 6.78-inch 165Hz AMOLED screen and three 50MP cameras. Its weak points are no Qi2 magnets, a telephoto that fades past 30x zoom and an 1800-nit peak brightness that trails the Galaxy S26 Ultra. It is not sold officially in Pakistan; units are imports, so check PTA status before you buy. Our MC Spec Score for the OnePlus 15 is 95%.
What's Good

2Huge 7300 mAh battery: 25 hours 13 minutes in Future Labs' full-drain test
3120W wired charging (81% in 30 minutes) with the charger in the box, plus 50W wireless

What's Not
1Sold only as an import in Pakistan: the non-PTA price needs PTA tax before a Pakistani SIM works
2No Qi2 wireless charging and no built-in magnets
3Telephoto quality drops beyond 30x and dark scenes take 1 to 2 seconds longer to capture (Android Central)
Disclaimer: OnePlus does not sell officially in Pakistan, so these are import prices: the non-PTA price is what shops ask, and the PTA price is an estimate (non-PTA price plus the reported PTA tax for a CNIC registration: Rs. 48,718 and Rs. 80,344). Passport tax is lower (Rs. 39,289 and Rs. 61,540). The real tax is set by PTA and FBR and changes with the dollar rate; use our PTA tax calculator and check the IMEI on the PTA DIRBS portal.

The non-PTA price is Rs. 189,999 for 12GB / 256GB and Rs. 221,999 for 16GB / 512GB (import prices from shops, checked 9 Nov 2026). With the reported PTA tax added (CNIC: Rs. 48,718 and Rs. 80,344; passport: Rs. 39,289 and Rs. 61,540), the PTA total comes to an estimated Rs. 238,717 and Rs. 302,343. Shop prices vary with the dollar rate and stock. For comparison, the US price starts at $899.99.
Is the OnePlus 15 PTA approved in Pakistan?
OnePlus does not sell the 15 officially in Pakistan, so every unit is an import. A non-PTA unit is cheaper but needs its PTA tax paid on the IMEI before a Pakistani SIM works; a PTA-approved unit from a shop already carries the tax in its price. Before you pay, check the box IMEI on the PTA DIRBS portal and use our PTA tax calculator, where the OnePlus 15 now has an estimated tax for both variants.
When was the OnePlus 15 released and what is new compared with the OnePlus 13?
OnePlus announced the OnePlus 15 in China on 27 October 2025 and launched it globally on 13 November 2025 with OxygenOS 16 on Android 16. Compared with the OnePlus 13 it moves to the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 (Geekbench 6 multi-core 11,116 against 9,058), grows the battery from 6000 mAh to 7300 mAh, raises the screen refresh rate to 165Hz for games and lifts the full-drain battery test from 19 hours 45 minutes to 25 hours 13 minutes (Future Labs).
How long does the OnePlus 15 battery last and how fast does it charge?
The 7300 mAh silicon-carbon battery lasted 25 hours 13 minutes in Future Labs' full-drain test, ahead of the Galaxy S25 Ultra (17 hours 14 minutes) and the iPhone 17 Pro Max (14 hours 54 minutes). Charging is 120W (80W in the US) and the charger is in the box: Android Central measured 81% in 30 minutes. Wireless charging is 50W; there is no Qi2 and no built-in magnets, so magnetic cases and chargers need an adapter ring.
How good is the OnePlus 15 camera?
The OnePlus 15 has three 50MP rear cameras: a main camera (f/1.8, 1/1.56-inch, OIS), a 116° ultra wide (f/2.0) and a 3.5x periscope telephoto (f/2.8, OIS). The 32MP front camera has autofocus and records 4K at up to 60 fps, and the rear cameras shoot 8K at 30 fps. Android Central calls it one of the best phone cameras around, but notes the telephoto weakens beyond 30x and dark scenes take 1 to 2 seconds longer to capture.
OnePlus 15 vs OnePlus 15R: which should I buy?
The OnePlus 15 has the faster Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, a 3.5x periscope telephoto, 120W wired plus 50W wireless charging and a 6.78-inch screen, from Rs. 189,999. The OnePlus 15R uses the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, has only a 50MP main and 8MP ultra wide camera, no wireless charging and 80W charging, but a bigger 7,400 mAh battery and a lower price: from Rs. 169,990 (non-PTA, 12GB/256GB). Buy the 15 for the camera and the top chip; buy the 15R if battery life and price matter most.
Does the OnePlus 15 have eSIM, an IR blaster or Face ID?
The OnePlus 15 has dual nano-SIM slots for 5G and an IR blaster, so it can control a TV or an AC. The sources we checked list only two nano-SIM slots and do not confirm eSIM, so ask the seller before you rely on it. There is no 3D face scanner like Apple's Face ID: unlocking uses an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor. Make sure the unit you buy has the right network bands and a Pakistani-friendly warranty from the shop.
How long will the OnePlus 15 get software updates?
OnePlus promises 4 major Android updates (up to Android 20) and 6 years of security updates, and the phone ships with OxygenOS 16 on Android 16. That is shorter than the 7 years Samsung gives the Galaxy S26 series, but long enough for most owners who change phones every 3 to 4 years.

How it works
How the MobiCircuit Score Works
This score is based mainly on a phone's specifications. It is not from our own lab tests.
95%
This phone
Performance
Chipset class and RAM.
Camera
Main sensor, stabilization (OIS), extra lenses, video quality and optical zoom.
Battery
Battery size, charging speed and chipset efficiency. A bigger battery alone does not mean longer life.
Display
Panel type, refresh rate and resolution.
How it's combined: each part is scored, then combined. Performance and Camera count the most. Scores are calibrated against the wider market so they stay realistic and consistent across phones.
Good to know: a score from specifications can't measure real battery life or real photo quality. Use it as a guide, and read reviews before you decide.
