Earlier today, Oppo introduced ColorOS 15 (based on Android 15) with a detailed roadmap for updating old devices – including OnePlus phones in China. OnePlus is still branding its OxygenOS software for its global devices and version 15 of it will be officially unveiled in a week.
OxygenOS 15 is coming on October 24 (next Thursday) and will be launched under the motto “Speed meets AI”. No surprises here, ColorOS 15 also focuses heavily on AI.
OnePlus has been tight-lipped about the details for now, but the company has been working on AI features for months – since AI Eraser tool in April, to Twins and more recently Gemini Live (a conversational version of Google’s AI). You can read more about Gemini Live here.
Naturally, we expect the company’s future phones to launch with the new operating system out of the box – the OnePlus 13 is expected later this monthat least in China (global launch could be early 2025). It will use the latest Snapdragon chip as introduced in a teaser video from Qualcomm – the chip itself should be unveiled a few days before the first batch of phones.
