With OxygenOS 15, OnePlus Will Deliver a Smarter, Smoother, and More Secure Smartphone Experience

You may have seen OnePlus’s teaser about its upcoming OxygenOS 15 update on social media. I’ve had it on my OnePlus 12 for a few days and found it to be a thoughtful evolution of OnePlus’s operating system. Built on feedback from actual users, OxygenOS 15 brings a more refined, AI-driven experience to make your phone faster, smoother, and smarter. It’s designed to feel like a natural extension of how you live and work, whether you’re managing a busy schedule or just trying to capture the perfect photo.

The all-new #OxygenOS15 launches tomorrow, and to celebrate, we’re giving away OnePlus 12, OnePlus Buds Pro 3, and OnePlus Never Settle Hoodies! Ready to make your phone faster and smoother?

One of the standout upgrades in OxygenOS 15 is the brand-new AI integration. This isn’t just about making your phone faster (though it does that, too); it’s about making it smarter in ways you’ll actually notice.

Let’s say you’ve got a photo from last night that came out blurry—maybe your pet moved, or you didn’t have the steadiest hand. With the new AI Unblur feature, your OnePlus phone will fix those blurry moments with a simple tap; no extra apps are required.

Do you need to sharpen that image you cropped down? AI Detail Boost has you covered. It effortlessly transforms low-res pictures into crisp, high-quality visuals—like giving your old photos a second chance to shine.

While these AI-powered enhancements work behind the scenes to make your life easier, security remains front and center. Features like Google Play Protect Live Threat Detection and enhanced theft protection keep your phone—and the personal information stored on it—safe.

From detecting suspicious app behavior to automatically locking your device if it’s stolen, OnePlus has added layers of protection you can count on without even thinking about it.

But the real magic of OxygenOS 15 isn’t just in its AI or security features—it’s how everything flows together so smoothly. Thanks to Parallel Processing, the days of lag when switching between apps are over.

If you love to multitask—say, you’ve got a ton of apps open at once, or you’re constantly jumping between social media, a note-taking app, and your email—OxygenOS 15 keeps everything running smoothly, even under heavy loads. No more choppy animations or delays when switching between tasks; it’s all designed to keep up with you.

Even the little details are considered, like how animations behave when you exit an app. A gentle swipe to close an app triggers a smooth return animation, but swipe forcefully, and you’ll see a parabolic exit that adds a sense of finality. It’s small, but it’s the kind of thoughtful design that makes your phone feel more responsive and intuitive.

OxygenOS 15 has some great tools for those who love snapping photos or need to manage a packed schedule. The new AI-powered Intelligent Search allows you to find anything on your phone—whether it’s a setting, a note, or a file—just by typing a natural language query.

Need to pull up that boarding quickly pass you took a picture of? Pass Scan instantly adds it to your Google Wallet, so you’re not fumbling around at the airport.

For the creative types, the integration of OnePlus AI goes even further. AI Notes helps organize your thoughts while highlighting important points and even polishing up your grammar. It’s a lifesaver when you need to keep things organized but don’t have time for meticulous formatting.

If you like to customize your phone’s look, OxygenOS 15’s design tweaks offer plenty of new ways to make the interface your own. Expanded card sizes, dynamic Shelf Cards with popular apps like Zomato, and redesigned icons make your phone look as good as it runs.

Speaking of running smoothly, OxygenOS 15 has reduced system storage by 20% compared to the previous version, leaving more space for what matters most—your apps, files, and media. It’s a subtle but significant improvement that frees up space without sacrificing performance.

Looking for ways to boost your productivity? The new Circle to Search feature lets you highlight images or text on your screen for quick searching without ever leaving the app you’re in.

For those who manage both OnePlus and iPhone devices, the Share with iPhone feature streamlines file sharing across both platforms, making transferring files between your gadgets easier than ever.

OxygenOS 15 is about making your OnePlus phone feel like it’s working with you, not against you.

Whether you’re a multitasker, a photo enthusiast, or just someone who wants a smooth and secure phone, this update offers something for everyone.
