According to a recent tip from Digital Chat Station (DCS), OnePlus will focus on improving performance, battery life, and camera for its next flagship.

While DCS suggests that the OnePlus 13 could be one of the first smartphones with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor, the Xiaomi 15 series is expected to be the first model to launch this new SoC, and the OnePlus 13 may follow it shortly.

OnePlus 13 is expected to feature a new single-point ultrasonic fingerprint sensor and improved silicon anode battery technology. DCS claims the battery has a “tremendous capacity”, so we can expect it to be larger than the OnePlus 12.

The leak also suggests that the phone will sport a large display, possibly a slightly curved 6.8-inch 2K LTPO OLED panel. The camera system is also expected to be updated. Although details are lacking, DCS mentions a triple camera setup with an improved periscope lens.

Additionally, in response to a user’s comment about the phone’s IP68 rating, the tipster noted that water resistance tests were “conducted,” although they have not yet been confirmed.

Besides the OnePlus 13, there are rumors that OnePlus may launch another flagship phone, the Ace 3 Pro, in the Chinese market this year. It is said to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and will compete with rivals like Realme GT 6 and the upcoming Redmi K70 Ultra.

More details about the OnePlus 13 and OnePlus Ace 3 Pro are sure to emerge in the coming weeks, as the official launch is likely to be a few months away.
