OnePlus Ends Hasselblad Era, Introduces DetailMax In‑House Imaging Engine

The company aims to own its camera software through a new imaging engine.

Overview

  • OnePlus confirmed the conclusion of its Hasselblad partnership in a community post from co-founder Pete Lau.
  • The company announced DetailMax as its first in-house imaging engine, promising clearer, more natural photos without over-beautification or distortion.
  • OnePlus shared no technical details and did not identify the first product that will ship with DetailMax.
  • Leaks suggest the OnePlus 15 will debut the engine and omit Hasselblad branding, with a China launch expected next month and a global rollout likely in early 2026.
