OnePlus 13 is touted to be one of the first phones to launch with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chip. In the realm of Android smartphones, OnePlus flagships are highly regarded, particularly by fans who appreciate quality design, state-of-the-art hardware, and flawless software at a competitive price. By the end of 2024, the OnePlus 13, the company’s upcoming flagship model, should be among the most sophisticated Android phones on the market. What we now know about the OnePlus 13 is as follows: Design, display, and form factor According to leaks, the OnePlus 13 would resemble the OnePlus 12 in terms of style, with a huge circular camera island set on a high-end glass-metal sandwich construction. Since the OnePlus 7 Pro, OnePlus flagships have been equipped with curved OLED panels. The OnePlus 13 is rumored to include a quad-curved display this time around, just like the Honor 200 Pro that we recently tested. It is anticipated that this quad-curved screen will improve the phone’s luxury appearance, solve ghost touch problems, and guarantee a better screen-to-body ratio with reduced bezels. The OnePlus 13 is expected to feature a sizable 6.7/6.8-inch 2K display with a refresh rate of at least 120 Hz, in keeping with OnePlus’s standards. More brightness and color accuracy are expected from this display than from its predecessor, which may also have the most recent iteration of Corning Gorilla Glass. Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB storage The OnePlus 13 is going to be an absolute beast in terms of performance. One of the first smartphones to come with the forthcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chip will be the OnePlus 13, which may come with up to 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage. The next-generation flagship Snapdragon 8 series processor from Qualcomm has already been verified to have an Oryon-architecture-based CPU, just like the Snapdragon X Elite chips, and it is anticipated to offer excellent single-core and multi-core CPU performance. Camera With a 48 MP ultrawide camera, a 64 MP 3x telephoto lens, and a 50 MP primary sensor, the OnePlus 13’s triple camera setup is anticipated to be fairly similar to that of the OnePlus 12 (review). The OnePlus 13’s upgraded processing should boost its photography performance even with similar hardware. Battery Finally, it has been reported that the OnePlus 13 would have the largest battery ever found in a OnePlus smartphone—6,000 mAh—possibly with support for at least 100W fast charging. According to a claim by Digital Chat Station, the OnePlus 13 might not enable wireless and reverse wireless charging. Like the recently released Nord 4, the OnePlus 13 is anticipated to receive at least four years of software upgrades and six years of security fixes. It is also probable that the device will come pre-installed with OxygenOS 15, an Android 15-based customization suite that includes several new features. In India, the flagship smartphone is anticipated to cost more than Rs 60,000 and come with several storage options. In November or December of this year, OnePlus should unveil its next flagship device, if all goes as expected.
