OnePlus 15 in Sand Storm: a closer look at the hero color
The latest teasers again focus on one particular color – Sand Storm – which looks to be the standout option for the series. The phone features a metal body treated with aerospace-grade micro arc oxidation. In simple terms, that is a high-end coating that gives the metal a ceramic-like feel and extra durability. It’s the kind of finish you’d expect on aircraft or industrial gear, designed to resist scratches and scuffs from daily use.

Launch timeline: much earlier than usual
When OnePlus starts dropping teasers like this, it usually means one thing – the launch is near. Based on past leaks and hints, the China debut is expected on October 27, though that is yet to be officially confirmed.
What’s more interesting is that the global launch might happen on November 13, which is way earlier than usual for OnePlus. Typically, the brand launches globally a few months after the China release – for instance, the OnePlus 13 dropped in October 2024 in China and only went global in January 2025, right before Samsung’s Galaxy S25 lineup.
