Realme GT 8 Pro vs OnePlus 15 vs iQOO 15: All three smartphones have triple camera setups, high-end designs, and top-tier processors. Determine which flagship is the best option for you based on factors including pricing, battery life, and performance.

In November 2025, the OnePlus 15 5G, iQOO 15 5G, and Realme GT 8 Pro 5G—three significant flagship smartphones—are expected to launch in India. High-refresh-rate screens, powerful batteries, and powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processors will be features of all three smartphones. Performance, gaming, and camera quality are the main features of these phones. China has already seen the release of all three phones. Which one will provide the best value for money is the question.

Small price difference, big feature difference

In India, the OnePlus 15 5G is expected priced between ₹65,000 and ₹75,000. The Realme GT 8 Pro 5G is expected to retail for ₹59,990, while the iQOO 15 5G will likely cost around ₹59,999. While OnePlus will get a higher price because of its camera hardware and brand value, Realme and iQOO are marginally less expensive. The flagship segment will see intense competition from all three phones.

Display competition is between OnePlus and Realme.

The 6.78-inch 1.5K LTPO screen of the OnePlus 15 5G will have 1800 nits of brightness and a refresh rate of 165 Hz. The 6.85-inch 2K+ LTPO AMOLED screen of the iQOO 15 5G will have a refresh rate of 144 Hz. Also, the Realme GT 8 Pro 5G will have a 6.79-inch 2K+ LTPO AMOLED screen. While Realme and iQOO assert that they provide a better gaming and visual experience, OnePlus seems to have a minor advantage in terms of color accuracy and brightness.

Realme’s 200MP camera is its standout feature.

Three cameras will be included in all three flagships, with a 50MP primary and a 50MP ultrawide sensor in common. The telephoto lens makes the difference. While the OnePlus 15 has a 3.5x optical zoom, the OnePlus 15 5G and iQOO 15 5G are expected to have a 50MP telephoto lens. The most surprising feature of the Realme GT 8 Pro 5G is its 200MP periscope lens with 3x optical zoom. Ricoh and Realme worked together on the camera, which should enhance color balancing and image processing even more.

iQOO will provide a gaming benefit, but all three smartphones perform admirably.

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 CPU, widely regarded as the most potent chipset available in smartphones, will be featured in all three devices. With a dedicated gaming chip, the iQOO 15 5G is being marketed as a smartphone with a gaming focus. The Realme GT 8 Pro 5G and OnePlus 15 5G are optimized for multitasking and high-end users. When it comes to performance, iQOO takes a slight advantage, while OnePlus can take the lead in UI experience.

OnePlus excels in charging and battery life.

It is expected that the OnePlus 15 5G would have the largest battery in its class, with a capacity of 7300mAh. It is anticipated that the Realme GT 8 Pro 5G and iQOO 15 5G would have 7000mAh batteries. Realme and OnePlus will both provide 120W fast charging, while iQOO trails slightly behind with 100W charging. Because of its faster charging and longer battery life, OnePlus has a benefit in this case.
