Hardware & Wearables

Canceling the OnePlus 15s signals a shift in the manufacturer’s release cycle, as the company abandons the strategy used for the 13-series, which saw the 13T and 13s arrive in China and India just months apart. This move follows the earlier launch of the 15T in March, suggesting a streamlined approach to its mid-year mobile lineup. Meanwhile, expanding health tracking remains a priority for wearable makers, as evidenced by the launch of the Ultrahuman M2 Live platform. This service integrates continuous glucose monitoring with metabolic data, marking a departure from the company’s core smart ring business.

Software Lifecycle

The move, announced at the Worldwide Developers Conference, limits compatibility to newer models, affecting users who rely on older iterations of the hardware for daily health and notification tracking.
