OnePlus 15
A genuine gaming machine with extreme benchmark performance, a 165 Hz gaming mode and huge battery capacity. Repeated independent restart/reboot reports remain the decisive reliability problem.
A repeated restart/reboot pattern appears across independent owners and multiple software periods, so performance cannot lift the reliability verdict above 5.9.

Recommendation
Editor's Note
A flagship can be spectacular to use and still score poorly when the same critical restart/reboot failure appears independently across multiple software builds. Performance cannot cancel a documented reliability pattern.
