On September 11, the well-known whistleblower Digital Chat Station revealed that a model equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 mobile platform has been put on the production line. Combining other information, CNMO believes that the machine is most likely OnePlus 13. The machine is an iterative product of OnePlus 12 and is expected to be officially released at the end of October this year to compete with Xiaomi 15 series, vivo X200 series, and iQOO 13 series.
OnePlus 13 will use Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 mobile platform, which is the latest flagship mobile platform to be released by Qualcomm on October 21. Built on TSMC’s 3nm process, it uses Qualcomm’s self-developed Oryon core for the first time and is equipped with a low-power AI subsystem, dedicated DSP and AI accelerator (eNPU).
In terms of imaging system, OnePlus 13 will be equipped with three 50-megapixel rear lenses, the sensors are from Sony, which may include a periscope telephoto lens. In addition, OnePlus 13 will also adopt the new Hasselblad Master Tone, integrating the latest flagship algorithm of the combined mother system to further enhance the photo-taking experience. In terms of battery life, OnePlus 13 will have a built-in 6000mAh large-capacity battery, supporting 100W wired charging and 50W wireless charging. Compared with the 5400mAh battery capacity of OnePlus 12, the battery life performance of OnePlus 13 may be significantly improved.
In terms of appearance, OnePlus 13 will adopt a full glass body design, including a white glass version. In addition, OnePlus 13 will also support ultrasonic fingerprint unlocking and provide a number of game-related functions and technologies.
It is worth noting that due to the price increase of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 mobile platform and upstream memory chips, this year’s Android flagship phones may not be able to maintain the same price level as previous generations, and OnePlus 13 may also increase in price.
