OnePlus 13 is finally coming to India. The company has confirmed the launch timeline of the flagship device. Surprisingly, there is no mention of the OnePlus 13R as the device was rumored to launch alongside the flagship model. OnePlus 13 is confirmed to launch in global markets like India in January 2025. Although the brand has kept its launch date under wraps, the good thing is that we know the possible features of the device as it recently arrived in China. Here’s everything you need to know.

OnePlus 13: Expected India price

No price of OnePlus 13 has been leaked, but the device is expected to be priced under Rs 70,000. Recall that OnePlus 12 was launched in India for Rs 64,999. So even if OnePlus plans to increase the price of the new version by a few thousand rupees, the price will still be under Rs 70,000.

OnePlus 13: specs, features

In China, the OnePlus 13 comes with a 6.82-inch display, the same size as the OnePlus 12, with a 120Hz refresh rate and QHD+ resolution. The screen maintains its high brightness levels, offering 1,600nits in regular mode and a maximum brightness of 4,500nits. However, this model brings two major improvements: glove usability and a native high refresh rate feature.

The ability to use the device while wearing gloves is a valuable addition, especially for users in cold areas like Delhi during winter. Additionally, there is a new local high refresh rate feature, which allows the screen to dynamically operate at multiple refresh rates. For example, watching videos can use a lower refresh rate, while scrolling through comments can switch to 60Hz, 90Hz, or 120Hz for a better experience. Under the hood, the OnePlus 13 is powered by Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.

One major upgrade in the OnePlus 13 is the battery. The phone is equipped with a larger 6,000mAh battery compared to the 5,400mAh unit in the OnePlus 12. The company claims that it can be used for about two days. The device supports 100W wired charging and 50W wireless charging and this year, OnePlus is also introducing magnetic wireless charging via a special case.

On the camera front, the OnePlus 13 retains the OnePlus 12’s 50-megapixel LYT-808 primary sensor, but its telephoto and ultrawide lenses have been upgraded to 50-megapixels each. The phone also has Hasselblad branding and 4K/60fps Dolby Vision video capture.

In terms of durability, the OnePlus 13 is IP68 and IP69 rated, which means it can survive underwater and withstand high-pressure water jets. Additionally, it features an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for more precise unlocking even with wet hands and a new vibration motor designed to improve the gaming experience.
