Rumors are filling the air with exciting news about the upcoming mid-range OnePlus competitor, the OnePlus 13R. According to Digital Chat Station, leaked information suggests that this phone could feature impressive performance thanks to the entirely new Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset and a massive 6000mAh battery for all-day endurance.
The new phone may also offer a flat 1.5K display. Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the versatile camera setup featuring a primary Sony IMX906 sensor and a 50MP periscope telephoto lens for detailed zoom shots.
Android Authority initially pointed out that the new report did not mention the OnePlus 13R by name. Instead, it is likely referring to the company’s next device, known as Ace. However, this lineup was only released in China and rebranded for global markets. For example, Ace 2 became OnePlus 11R, while Ace 3 became the high-end OnePlus 12R.
One point of contention in Android Authority regarding the phone discussed by Digital Chat Station is the chipset. While the leak indicates Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, it suggests that the phone may feature the less powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 to reduce costs – at least in regions outside China.
Where will OnePlus launch a phone worldwide using the next Qualcomm chip? The long-rumored OnePlus 13. The next flagship phone from the company is expected to offer a 6.82-inch BOE X2 display with 2K resolution. It may also support 100W wired charging and 50W wireless charging.
With the announcement expected very soon, the OnePlus 13 and 13R are expected to make a splash in the smartphone world. Their predecessors, the OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 12R, are among the top competitors in the market, setting high standards for these upcoming releases. Both phones are expected to be available worldwide before the end of the year or in early January.
