OnePlus 15 Review: A Phone With Two-Day Battery Life

WIRED

It doesn't look or feel quite like a OnePlus phone, but with speed and battery life like this, who cares? Doesn't get too warm while gaming. Software update policy still doesn't match that of Apple, Google, or Samsung. Cameras are still a step below the top dogs. OnePlus has been churning out Android smartphones for over a decade, yet it still feels like the company is fighting an uphill battle to get a foothold in the US.


Apple's Big OS Rebrand, OnePlus Embraces AI, and Samsung's Next Folds--Your Gear News of the Week

WIRED

Bloomberg reports that this year at WWDC, Apple plans to announce a broad overhaul of all of its operating systems. That includes renaming them to be more consistent. Starting this year, Apple will reportedly begin denoting each OS version for each product by year, instead of by version. Confusingly, it will start with the next year, rather than this year (just like cars). So the versions we'll see at this year's WWDC will not be iOS 25, but rather iOS 26, watchOS 26, and so on, in place of iOS 19 and watchOS 12. Here's more you may have missed this week: The move is reportedly part of a larger push toward a cohesive user experience across platforms.


OnePlus 13 review: A focused flagship that ignores the AI hype

Engadget

OnePlus has been a bit up and down since it merged with Oppo back in 2021. It gained greater access to powerful components and partnerships with brands like Hasselblad, while its software and product lineup took a few steps back before finding its stride again. But now, three generations after the merger, OnePlus' latest flagship phone -- the OnePlus 13 -- feels like a fantastic return to form. In some areas, the company is even pushing the limits of hardware and gadget design in ways that rivals from Samsung and Google aren't. And with a starting price of 900, OnePlus has managed to undercut its closest competitor too, which makes this phone a great choice for anyone who cares more about getting hardware upgrades than fancy new AI tricks.
