What RAM crisis? OnePlus is beefing up the 15R with more RAM

Wait 5 sec.

Credit: Joe Maring / Android AuthorityTL;DROnePlus is adding a new OnePlus 15R variant with higher RAM.Previously limited to 12GB, the OnePlus 15R now gets a 16GB RAM option with 512GB of storage.The variant, unfortunately, is currently limited to India.If you’ve wanted to buy a latest-gen Android that’s high on performance and offers superfast charging, the OnPlus 15 is among the easiest bets you can make. But if you don’t want that $900 siphoned from your pocket, a relatively more affordable yet equally powerful alternative is the OnePlus 15R. The latter, in addition to its better value for money, also feels like a better choice for a bigger battery and a similarly smooth 165fps gaming experience. However, it can feel limiting if you want to experiment with more demanding workloads, such as running a large AI model on-device. For those who’ve been in a similar fix, OnePlus has quietly rolled out a new variant with higher RAM.The OnePlus 15R initially launched with two variants: 12GB+256GB and 12GB+512GB. However, a third variant has now been added to the lineup, offering 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage.
