What's better than an ultra-high-end OnePlus 15 with a $100 Amazon gift card included in its list price mere weeks after a (delayed) US commercial debut? If you're on a tight budget, a slightly humbler OnePlus 15R with... a $100 Amazon gift card bundled in before the handset is technically released stateside.

That's right, Amazon.com pre-orders come with a $100-worth freebie now, which essentially means you'll be slashing a cool Benjamin off a regular (combined) price of $799.99 if you hurry. While this particular OnePlus 15R launch deal doesn't have an expiration date listed anywhere, the 6.83-inch Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 powerhouse is scheduled to start shipping at the end of the month, so you probably have until then to score the complimentary gift card.

Alternatively, of course, you could get the new phone directly from its manufacturer, in which case nationwide delivery kicks off a little earlier and your deal sweetener is either a $24.99-worth sandstone magnetic case or a pair of OnePlus Buds 4 (valued at $129.99).

Clearly, the latter gift is a much smarter choice, but if you're a frequent Amazon.com shopper (and who isn't?), a $100 voucher for anything on the e-commerce platform is likely to feel way more valuable.

The OnePlus 15R itself is a pretty valuable device, naturally falling short of the OnePlus 15's industry-leading raw power and camera capabilities while packing an absolutely mind-blowing 7,400mAh battery equipped with blazing fast 80W charging technology.

The AMOLED screen is both overwhelmingly imposing and remarkably sharp, sporting a resolution of 2800 x 1272 pixels and 165Hz refresh rate capabilities, and even in an entry-level configuration, the handset pairs a hefty 12GB RAM count with a respectable 256 gigs of internal storage space. That's actually the only variant available on Amazon (at least for the time being), with the official US OnePlus Store taking orders for a model with 512GB storage and 12GB RAM as well ahead of a January 22 rollout.
