The OnePlus 13s is the better fit if you want a smaller phone and a dedicated 2x telephoto camera. The iQOO 15R offers a larger, faster-refresh display, a higher-capacity battery, faster listed charging and an ultra-wide camera. India price listings captured in October 2026 put both phones near ₹54,000, but the exact seller and storage configuration matter.

OnePlus 13s vs iQOO 15R specifications

The clearest differences are the phones’ size, secondary rear camera and battery specifications. The OnePlus 13s figures below come from 91mobiles; the iQOO 15R specifications are listed by iQOO India unless otherwise noted.

OnePlus specifications in this comparison are sourced from 91mobiles because its official specifications page did not provide readable details in the available extract. iQOO’s India listing supports the 15R’s display, battery, charging and camera details. Verify the exact variant and specifications on the manufacturer’s current product pages before purchase.

Which phone is better for your priorities?

Choose the OnePlus 13s for a smaller phone and telephoto reach

At 6.32 inches, its listed display is smaller than the iQOO’s 6.59-inch panel. Its 50MP 2x optical telephoto camera also gives it a different kind of framing option than an ultra-wide: it is intended for tighter shots without relying only on digital zoom. Consider the 13s if a more compact screen and that camera perspective matter more to you than maximum listed battery capacity.

Choose the iQOO 15R for a larger display and higher listed battery capacity

The 15R pairs a 6.59-inch display with a 144Hz refresh rate, compared with the OnePlus 13s’s 6.32-inch, 120Hz panel. Its listed 7,600mAh typical battery and 100W charging also exceed the OnePlus’s 5,850mAh and 80W figures. The rear camera pairing is a 50MP OIS main camera and an 8MP ultra-wide, suited to broader framing rather than the OnePlus’s listed 2x telephoto approach.

Performance and battery results: what the figures do and do not show

Both phones use high-end Snapdragon platforms, but the available benchmark results are mixed. 91mobiles reports an AnTuTu score of 2,581,355 for the OnePlus 13s and 3,078,708 for the iQOO 15R; in Wild Life Extreme, it reports 6,047 for the OnePlus and 5,071 for the iQOO. Because the phones lead in different tests and the figures do not establish sustained performance under controlled, comparable workloads, they are not enough to declare one phone definitively faster for everyday use or gaming.

91mobiles also reports PCMark battery-test results of 16 hours 34 minutes for the OnePlus 13s and 18 hours 23 minutes for the iQOO 15R. The captured information does not fully specify the test conditions, so treat these as source-reported test results, not a prediction of how long either phone will last for you. Actual battery life depends on usage, network conditions and settings; capacity alone cannot determine real-world endurance.

What to check before buying

  • Compare the same RAM and storage tier on both phones; listings include 256GB and 512GB options.
  • Confirm the price with the named seller and check whether an offer changes the final amount.
  • Choose the camera type you are more likely to use: the OnePlus listing specifies 2x optical telephoto, while iQOO confirms an ultra-wide camera.
  • Verify software and update-policy details with the manufacturer. The update figures above are reported by 91mobiles, not confirmed by the manufacturer information captured here.
