The phone will go on sale in China on April 24 and is already available for pre-reservation. The new device has been promised with a new design, a strong chipset, and some new functional features that can be expected to attract tech buffs.
Launch Date and Colour Options
OnePlus 13T is all set to launch in China on April 24, with the event commencing at 2:30pm local time (12pm IST). The company has opened up pre-reservations on its Chinese online store. According to the teasers and Weibo listings, the phone will be available in three colors—Cloud Ink Black, Morning Mist Gray, and Powder Pink. The look seems to be sleek, with a square-shaped dual camera module at the rear and a flat front panel with slim bezels.
Display, Chipset, and Battery
The new flagship is teased to have a 6.32-inch flat display with slim bezels and a 1.5K resolution. It is said to have a 120Hz refresh rate for smoother visuals. Driving the OnePlus 13T might be the newly seen Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, paired with up to 16GB LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB UFS 4.0 storage. The phone is indeed to feature a battery of more than 6,000mAh, with reports hinting at a 6,200mAh capacity and 80W fast charging support.
Camera and Operating System
The OnePlus 13T is indeed reported to feature a dual rear camera setup, consisting of a 50MP primary camera and a 50MP telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom. Software-wise, it will be running ColorOS 15, which is based on Android 15. The device boasts a premium metal build and also features a new ‘Shortcut Key’ functionality instead of the usual Alert Slider, adding more functionality to it.
Pre-Launch Hype and Market Expectations
Even before its official release, OnePlus 13T is gaining attention with its high configuration and distinctive design alterations. The Shortcut Key has gained interest from the long-time OnePlus users who have been accustomed to the signature Alert Slider. With good battery life and sleek design, it will be in contention with other premium segment flagships.
What to Expect Globally
Although the China launch is confirmed, details on global availability are still under wraps. Nevertheless, based on OnePlus’ typical pattern, an international launch might be imminent. If the phone maintains its hardware specifications for global markets, it might prove to be a great choice for consumers seeking performance, battery life, and flagship features at an affordable price point.
