The OnePlus 13 is just around the corner! The Chinese company is set to unveil its latest flagship smartphone sooner than we thought. Based on the latest OnePlus 13 leaks, we’re looking forward to a fresh design, Android 15 featuring the new Gemini AI, and the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, which launches in October.
While the OnePlus 12 is a solid choice, waiting for the OnePlus 13 could be worth it. With expected improvements in performance, battery life, and features, this new model is likely to level up your smartphone experience! So stick around to get all the details!
Design
OnePlus’s president for China Louis Lee recently teased the upcoming OnePlus 13, sharing a frontal photo. While it doesn’t reveal much, it does confirm the centered punch-hole for the selfie camera. The main highlight, though, is the new Oriental BOE X2 display. OnePlus is going all out with BOE’s latest quad-curved panel, featuring uniform bezels around the entire screen.
The tipster Digital Chat Station also gave us a sneak peek of what looks like the OnePlus 13 in a protective cover. While the full design is still under wraps, the image gives a clear view of the camera module. Unlike previous OnePlus models where the camera blended into the phone’s edge, this time around it looks like the OnePlus 13 will have a separate area just for its cameras.
Meanwhile, another well-known leaker, Yogesh Brar, mentioned that the OnePlus 13 will feature a micro curved 2K display. I know not everyone is into curved screens, but I love mine. I was a bit nervous at first since I had never used one, but I got used to it quickly, and it’s really nice. It’s much more comfortable for me to swipe from the sides on a curved display. Now I can’t go back to flat ones!
In another leak, Brar shared a design sketch showing that the OnePlus 13’s camera housing has been shifted to the center, a change from the top corner placement we saw on the OnePlus 12.
