OnePlus 15R review: unbeatable battery life, beatable value

Take note.

The OnePlus 15R's battery life is exceptional. It's a smidge better than the very impressive OnePlus 15's, and the 15R costs two hundred dollars less. So why am I having a hard time recommending it?

Typically, OnePlus' R-series phone is a simplified, less-expensive follow-up to the main flagship - in this case, the OnePlus 15. And technically, yeah, it meets that criteria. But the vibe is different; the 15R doesn't feel like you're getting away with flagship features at a bargain price.
