OnePlus 15R Price Increased Again in India; Check New Variant-Wise Prices, Specifications and Features
The OnePlus 15R has undergone a second consecutive price hike in India, making it INR 7,000 more expensive than its launch price. Driven by global memory component shortages, the base 256GB model now costs INR 54,999. The device retains its original specs, including a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor and a 7,400mAh battery.
The OnePlus 15R has received another significant price increase in India, marking its second upward cost revision in just two months. Originally launched at a competitive baseline of INR 47,999, the smartphone's starting price has now risen to INR 54,999 on retail platforms like Amazon India. This latest adjustment adds a fresh INR 4,500 premium to the device, hot on the heels of a INR 2,500 increase applied only last month, creating a total surge of INR 7,000 since its commercial debut.
While OnePlus has not formally released a statement explaining the sudden premium, industry analysts attribute the trend to the rapidly surging market costs of internal components, specifically high-tier LPDDR5X RAM and UFS flash storage. This issue is currently creating widespread inflation across the global consumer electronics supply chain. Rather than compromising on hardware, manufacturers are opting to pass the rising manufacturing expenses down to consumers to protect margins. iPhone 18 Pro Series Tipped to Feature Variable Aperture Camera; Check Expected Features and Specifications.
