OnePlus 13 will launch in October and we may already have the price, camera, processor and other details for India

OnePlus sent the tech world into a frenzy by confirming that the OnePlus 13 will launch in China in October, OnePlus China President Louis Lee announced. But the excitement isn't over yet. Dropping more hints, Lee revealed that the flagship smartphone will feature the “latest generation of flagship chips.” This suggests that the OnePlus 13 may be powered by Qualcomm's highly anticipated Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset, which could make the device a standout in terms of performance.

We don't have a launch date for the OnePlus 13 yet. However, there have been several leaks surrounding the phone that hinted at possible pricing, chipset, camera and other details of the phone. Here's everything we know about the phone so far.

One of the biggest highlights of the OnePlus 13 will be its focus on gaming, with Lee explaining that it will offer the industry's first 120fps “Genshin Impact” gaming experience. With this ultra-fast frame rate and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset under the hood, you can expect impressive performance from the phone.

Design and display leaks on the OnePlus 13

In terms of design, recent leaks suggest that the OnePlus 13 will get a fresh look with a redesigned camera island, marking a departure from the camera designs of the OnePlus 12 and its predecessor. The new design is intended to give the OnePlus 13 a distinctive aesthetic, although no official images have been released yet.

On the display front, the OnePlus 13 is likely to retain the 2K resolution screen that has become a staple of OnePlus' flagship devices. However, a notable innovation could be the integration of an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, which promises faster and more secure unlocking compared to the optical sensors typical in smartphones.

OnePlus 13 RAM and performance leaks

Under the hood, rumors are rife that OnePlus could break the mold with 24GB of RAM, which represents a huge leap in mobile performance, especially for tasks that require high processing power like AI applications and games. Such a large storage capacity would also improve multitasking capabilities and allow users to seamlessly switch between apps without experiencing slowdowns.

OnePlus 13 camera leaks

The camera setup on the OnePlus 13 is expected to be significantly improved, with a periscope camera sensor taking the lead. While specific details remain under wraps, the device is likely to use the same image processing algorithm as the upcoming Oppo Find X8 series. Combined with OnePlus' long-standing partnership with Hasselblad, the OnePlus 13 could become a serious competitor in smartphone photography.

According to reports, the OnePlus 13 will feature a 50-megapixel main camera with a Sony LYT-808 sensor and an f/1.6 aperture. It will also include a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera that offers 3x optical zoom, promising versatility to photography enthusiasts.

The OnePlus 13 battery has leaked

Another recent report suggests that the upcoming OnePlus 13 is likely to feature a massive 6,000mAh battery. The leak also points to impressive charging capabilities, suggesting the device will support 100W wired charging and 50W wireless fast charging. These features would represent a significant improvement in battery performance and charging speed, ensuring users can charge their devices quickly and enjoy long-lasting usage throughout the day.

If this rumor proves true, the OnePlus 13 could appeal to users who value fast charging and longer battery life.

OnePlus 13 awaits India pricing

As far as pricing is concerned, OnePlus has not yet provided any official information. However, the OnePlus 12 was launched in India for Rs 64,999 and the OnePlus 13 is expected to be priced similarly, although new features could push the price up slightly. While the phone is expected to launch in China first, users in India can expect its launch shortly after, continuing OnePlus' tradition of staggered releases across markets. However, it is important to note that many of these details are based on rumors and leaks and there is no official confirmation from OnePlus yet.
