OnePlus 15 Smartphone Now Available for Preorder as Government Shutdown Hindered Launch
In a surprise move, the OnePlus 15 smartphone is now available for preorder in the US weeks after its official unveiling. The device had been delayed due to the government shutdown, which prevented the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) from certifying new wireless products.
According to reports, the longest US government shutdown on record led to an indefinite delay in the phone's release. As a result, OnePlus could not begin selling the phone until the FCC resumed its functions. Now that the agency has cleared the device for sale, interested buyers can place their orders on the OnePlus website.
The base model of the OnePlus 15 starts at $900 and comes with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. However, customers who want to upgrade to the higher-end version will have to pay an additional $100. The phone's battery life has been praised in reviews as incredible, with some tests showing a remarkable 7,300 mAh capacity.
Additionally, OnePlus is offering a free gift with every preorder, which includes options such as the OnePlus Buds Pro 3 earbuds or an AIRVOOC 50 W wireless charger. However, it's worth noting that these freebies are only available while supplies last.
The phone's launch was met with mixed reviews from critics, who praised its performance but criticized its camera and design. Nevertheless, for those looking to get their hands on the latest OnePlus device, now is the time to place your order.

. The battery life sounds insane, 7,300 mAh? That's like, a whole day and a half of screen time without needing to charge 
. But seriously, $900 is a bit steep for me, I'd rather wait until they have some deals or discounts on it. And I'm curious about the free gift options, does anyone know what's up with those? Are they gonna be worth it?
Like, what's next? Delaying our kids' birthday party cakes because of a bureaucratic mess? 
Anyway, back to the OnePlus 15... seems like it's got some awesome specs and a solid battery life! 
The free gift with preorder is a nice touch too, who doesn't love a good pair of earbuds or a fancy charger? 
My kid's been eyeing that phone, hope they can get one soon. And I'm curious to see how the camera holds up in real life... 
, can't say I'm surprised considering the government shutdown had a major impact on their launch plans 
. also, who doesn't love getting free goodies with preorders? 
OnePlus knows how to sweeten the deal! 
. Like, sure it's got all these sick features like that crazy battery life and fast charging, but does it really need to be so expensive? Shouldn't there be more affordable options available in the market? The free gift thingy might help, I guess, but let's be real, who needs a fancy earbud or wireless charger when you could just get the actual phone for cheaper? 
And honestly, I kinda agree with those critics who said the camera and design were meh... it's all about prioritizing what matters most to you as a consumer 
.
... I mean, what's up with these prices? $900 for a base model? That's just crazy talk! 
And don't even get me started on the "free" gift thingy. It's like they're trying to trick people into buying more stuff that we might not even need. 
But seriously, it's crazy how a government shutdown could affect tech launches. I mean, who expects that kind of thing? 
! I was low-key worried when I heard about the government shutdown, but it's awesome that they were able to get everything sorted out and make it happen 
. 900 bucks might be a bit steep for me, but if you're feeling it, go for it! 
I've been hearing great things about this phone's battery life - 7,300 mAh is insane! 
. I'm definitely adding this one to my wishlist now 
been waiting for this phone and now that it's out, I'm placing my order ASAP 
. the free gift is a nice touch too, who doesn't love some new earbuds or a wireless charger 
. but for the price, $900 is kinda steep, guess you get what you pay for 
I was literally dying from the delay 
and those freebies? Yaaas, I'm totally getting the Buds Pro 3 earbuds 
my current ones are so outdated 
. I did read some mixed reviews about the camera tho 
. I'm still not convinced this phone is worth the investment 
. anyone else planning on getting their hands on one? 
gotta say though, $900 for the base model is still a bit steep 
anyone else preordering this phone? i'm thinking of getting the base model with 12gb ram and 256gb storage, how much more is that gonna cost if i upgrade to the higher-end version? 
That's a looong wait! Anywayz, the base model starts at $900 
like 7,300 mAh capacity ! 
! The launch got mixed reviews from critics tho 
. I've been following all the updates and from what I saw in reviews, that battery life sounds insane 
! And who wouldn't want those freebies? OnePlus Buds Pro 3 earbuds or an AIRVOOC 50 W wireless charger? Yes please! 
and I'm still not sure if that's a good or bad thing... on one hand, we get an awesome new phone with a massive battery life
