The OnePlus 13, the latest flagship phone from OnePlus, has been the subject of numerous leaks and rumors in recent months. According to various sources, including Digital Chat Station on Weibo and Android Central, the OnePlus 13 is expected to have several notable upgrades over its predecessor. However, it may also lack some features that have become standard in high-end smartphones.
One of the most significant changes rumored for the OnePlus 13 is its display. While earlier leaks suggested a quad-curved display, recent reports indicate that the phone will instead feature a flat screen with a micro-curved glass cover. This design choice may create a symmetrical, bezel-less appearance but could also result in ergonomic issues for some users.
Another major upgrade is expected to be the battery life. The OnePlus 13 is rumored to have an ultra-large battery of 6,000mAh or more. This would represent a significant improvement over the OnePlus 12's 5,400mAh battery and could potentially provide two-day usage for heavy users.
However, this upgrade may come at a cost. Some sources suggest that the OnePlus 13 will not support wireless charging and will only offer wired charging with a reported speed of 100W. This decision has been met with criticism from some quarters, as wireless charging is now considered standard in many high-end smartphones.
In terms of camera specs, the OnePlus 13 is expected to have a triple camera setup with a primary sensor of unknown megapixels and two additional lenses. The main upgrade appears to be the periscope lens, which may offer improved zoom capabilities compared to the OnePlus 12.
The exact release date for the OnePlus 13 is not yet known, but rumors suggest it could launch sometime in October or November of this year. Stay tuned for more updates as more information becomes available.
