OnePlus 15 is getting a new update with an overheating fix . It appears to resolve the most serious thermal problems first observed during early testing. Numerous online reviews and benchmark tests had earlier reported unusual heating problems under heavy load on the OnePlus 15 . After installing the new update and repeating tests, the device now completes demanding workloads while maintaining the thermals.
OnePlus 15 is getting a new update with the overheating fix
After updating to the latest version, Android Authority rechecked the device’s performance under heavy load. Thankfully, the flagship now appears to be finishing demanding tasks without getting too hot . Temperatures remain a bit on the higher side, yet they fall within ranges expected for flagship chipsets under extreme conditions.
Talking about the benchmark, Geekbench scores remain similar with no major fluctuations. Enabling performance mode pushes multi-core results further. This confirms that the software is not throttling the device ‘s performance to manage heat. Graphics testing in 3DMark also shows higher scores in both Solar Bay and Wild Life Extreme. The thermal adjustments do not appear to be compromising GPU output in any practical way.
The flagship now delivers better thermal performance and improved efficiency
The most observable change is that the device now completes full stress test cycles without overheating or shutting down. Earlier attempts peaked at over 52 degrees Celsius externally, but the updated model tops out near 47 degrees internally. Although still warm, these figures match expected or usual results for top-tier performance chips.
The throttling test reveals that the OnePlus 15 now drops to about 60 percent of its peak performance by the end of long stress runs. The update has surely improved the heat control and thermal efficiency of the device. And the best part? It doesn’t compromise much on the performance. The update is rolling out to stable users, and most users should get it soon.
