The OnePlus 15R is a battery life beast, and it just scored a record-smashing discount at Amazon
OnePlus deals are historically pretty rare, so act fast if you're interested.
OnePlus deals don't come around very often, so even the smallest discounts on these eye-catching smartphones deserve a bit of attention. The OnePlus 15R, for example, is currently chilling with a $100 price drop at Amazon, knocking the price of the 512GB phone down to $699.99.
That may not seem like a major discount, but it's actually the largest price drop that the unlocked device has ever received through the retailer. Is the phone worth it? How does it compare to the standard OnePlus 15? Let's discuss.
OnePlus 15R 512GB: $799.99 $699.99 at Amazon
The OnePlus 15R is a midrange device packed full of flagship-level specs, such as incredible battery life, an IP68/IP69-rated design, and solid performance from the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset. The phone is not without its issues, but a rare $100 discount should be a welcome sight for OnePlus fans.
✅Recommended if: you want a OnePlus device with a durable design, vibrant AMOLED display, and some of the best battery life ever packed into an Android phone.
❌Skip this deal if: you can afford the standard OnePlus 15; you want a phone with great cameras or impressive gaming performance; you can find a better deal on the OnePlus 13 or 13R.
Just like the standard OnePlus 15, the OnePlus 15R has a bunch of premium specs that should turn heads, such as a powerful Snapdragon chipset, vibrant 6.8-inch AMOLED display, and IP68/IP69 water-and-dust resistance. The main selling point, however, is the phone's gargantuan 7,400mAh battery, an upgrade that should give the OnePlus 15R up to two days on a single charge.
That being said, the OnePlus 15R is far from perfect. The cameras are pretty underwhelming and lack a telephoto lens, overheating can be a problem with graphics-intensive games, and if that wasn't frustrating enough, OnePlus decided to increase the price of the phone by $100. In other words, this Amazon deal is basically just offsetting a price hike.
Still, the OnePlus 15R is a great device if you value long-lasting battery life and don't play a ton of Android games, but I would only pick it up if you can't afford the OnePlus 15. Starting at $899.99 for the 256GB version, this flagship is better than the 15R in every way aside from battery life, and while it doesn't get discounted very often, it's worth noting that Prime Day 2026 is just around the corner. The choice is yours.
