OnePlus 13 with Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and 6000mAh battery launched in China

The OnePlus 13 has officially dropped—in China, bringing a fresh set of features and improvements to the lineup. The OnePlus 13 runs on the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, packing OnePlus’s largest battery yet—a 6000mAh powerhouse. When it’s time to recharge, you’ve got 100W fast charging and 50W wireless charging at your disposal, along with support for magnetic charging.

The OnePlus 13 looks sleeker, and more angular, thanks to its new flat-frame design. The camera module has been shifted away from the edge, and there’s a fresh metal strip flaunting the updated Hasselblad "H" logo, just like we speculated.

On the front, you get a 6.82-inch 2K+ AMOLED display with a 1440x3168 resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of up to 4500 nits. OnePlus has also upped the durability game, protecting the screen with Crystal Shield super ceramic glass for added resilience.

The OnePlus 13 runs on the octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and offers four configurations – 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB, 16GB+512GB, and a hefty 24GB+1TB option. It operates on Android 15 with OnePlus's OxygenOS 15 overlay for a custom experience.

Photography-wise, the OnePlus 13 has a triple 50MP rear camera setup – a main camera with OIS and AF, a 50MP ultra-wide, and a 50MP telephoto lens. Up front, there’s a 32MP selfie camera for sharp self-portraits. Developed with Hasselblad, the camera setup supports 8K video recording for high-resolution captures. 

It also includes an in-display fingerprint sensor with an IP69 rating, offering protection against dust and water. Plus, it’s fitted with stereo speakers and four microphones for enhanced audio quality. Starting at 4499 yuan (around Rs.53,000), the phone is already available for pre-order in China, though OnePlus hasn’t announced a global release date yet.
