Unpleasant news has emerged for users awaiting the OnePlus 15s. According to a report by Yogesh Brar, the likelihood of the OnePlus 15s being canceled is almost 90%. Previously, he stated that the device was in a testing phase, but now claims that although its launch was expected next month (February), its release is now in serious doubt. As for the Nord 6, the smartphone’s release has been postponed indefinitely.
The OnePlus 15s and Nord 6 were expected to debut as rebranded or refined versions of the upcoming OnePlus 15T and the recently introduced OnePlus Turbo 6 in China. Yogesh Brar has previously leaked specifications of unreleased devices (Redmi A1, Pixel 7, and Pixel 7 Pro, OnePlus 11), all of which were later confirmed.
In light of recent developments, it appears the company might be shifting its focus amidst a backdrop of intense competition and rapidly evolving technological standards. The smartphone industry in 2026 reflects a high-pressure environment where brands are pushed to innovate continually, often at the cost of delaying launches due to the demand for cutting-edge technology. Expert opinions suggest that while delays can be frustrating, they may also lead to more refined products.
