TL;DR
- The OnePlus 15 showed remarkable structural integrity during JRE’s test.
- Its Gorilla Glass Victus 2, a fiberglass-reinforced plastic back, and a micro-arc oxidation-treated aluminum frame — all contribute to the phone’s durability.
- The Sand Storm model trades scratch resistance for drop resistance, avoiding the shattering that destroys most glass-backed flagships.
Every new flagship faces the crucible of durability, but the OnePlus 15 didn’t just survive Zack Nelson’s (JerryRigEverything) infamous gauntlet; it redefined what “tough” means in 2025.
