The OnePlus 13s was launched just last month, but OnePlus is already working on its successor. OnePlus will skip the number '14', as it is considered unlucky in Asian cultures. It's still a year away, but some sources claim to know what improvements to expect from the OnePlus 15s.
Notable upgrades
According to Yogesh Brar, the OnePlus 15s and OnePlus 15T are already "in the works". By the way, the T-variant is essentially a rebrand of the S-variant with some changes for specific markets. Anyway, the OnePlus 15s will allegedly get an additional camera. This year's model came with two 50MP rear cameras, which means next year's model will have three rear cameras instead.

Size is same, bump in battery, new chip and 1 more camera
What more changes should be made?
Moreover, the battery capacity for both phones could be upgraded. For reference, the OnePlus 13s has a 5850mAh battery, while the rebranded OnePlus 13T has an even larger 6260mAh Silicon Carbon battery. If the successor is to offer meaningful improvement, the battery capacity would be closer to 6500mAh or higher. Finally, the OnePlus 15s/15T will be equipped with a new chipset, which is presumably the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2.
Too early to tell?
The two rumoured phones have a long development process to go through before specs are finalised. As such, it's still too early to tell if current rumours are accurate. Having said that, worthwhile upgrades could convince OnePlus fans to wait for next year or get this year's OnePlus 13s/13T.
