However, the company also revealed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/qualcomm-snapdragon-8-gen-5-3601031\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Snapdragon 8 Gen 5<\/a>, which sits below the Elite chip.

The company\u2019s Ace phones are China-only affairs, but we\u2019ve seen some of these phones released outside China with a new name.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m guessing the OnePlus 15R will pack the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chip. After all, OnePlus has traditionally used previous-generation flagship silicon for these R-series phones, such as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/oneplus-13r-review-3514053\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">OnePlus 13R<\/a>. So the switch to a more current but (presumably) similarly powerful processor makes sense. But this is just speculation on my part, and we\u2019ll need to wait for more info.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
