OnePlus 15 Faces Heat Issues in Latest Stress Test
The highly anticipated OnePlus 15 has just gone head-to-head with the iPhone 17 Pro Max in a series of benchmark stress tests. Reviewers at Max Tech wanted to see if the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset could outshine Apple’s flagship. However, it looks like the heat was just too much for OnePlus’s latest device.

Performance Showdown: OnePlus 15 vs iPhone 17 Pro Max
During a tough synthetic benchmark, the OnePlus 15 overheated and crashed while the iPhone kept its cool and finished strong. That’s not a great look for Android fans hoping for a new performance king! While the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 promised big improvements, it seems the OnePlus 15 still struggles to manage heat under heavy loads.
Maybe OnePlus needs to throw in a tiny ice pack as a free accessory? Or perhaps users should just avoid running benchmarks in the Sahara. In all seriousness, this test result raises questions about the phone’s long-term reliability during gaming or intensive use.
