Design & Display

OnePlus is aiming at premium minimalism with the 13s. It’s just 8.15mm thin and weighs only 185g, making it one of the lightest flagships in the segment. The symmetrical flat-frame design with ultra-thin bezels on the 6.32-inch panel offers a modern and ergonomic appeal.

1600 nits peak brightness, 800 nits HBM

Performance & Internals

The OnePlus 13s is equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite, Qualcomm’s latest flagship chip, coupled with Adreno 830 GPU for gaming and graphics. The combination ensures blazing-fast performance with minimal power consumption.

 

Memory & Storage:

 

12GB LPDDR5X RAM

256GB/512GB UFS 4.0 internal storage
(No microSD slot)

 

Cameras

While the OnePlus 13s ditches the ultra-wide sensor, it still features a dual 50MP camera setup tuned for quality:

 

50MP Sony LYT-700 primary sensor

50MP S5KJN5 telephoto lens (2X optical zoom)

4K 60fps recording with Dolby Vision HDR

32MP front camera for selfies & video calls

 

One major omission is the ultra-wide lens, which could be a downside for photography enthusiasts.

 

Battery & Charging

Powering the OnePlus 13s is a massive 5,850mAh battery, which OnePlus claims can easily support:

 

Full-day usage with heavy tasks

Up to 7 hours of BGMI gameplay with high frame rates

What’s New – The ‘Plus Key’

One of the biggest changes in the OnePlus 13s is the elimination of the iconic Alert Slider. In its place, OnePlus introduces the ‘Plus Key’, a customisable button on the left frame.

 

Functions of the Plus Key:

 

Switch between ring, vibrate, and silent modes

Launch camera, flashlight, or translation tools

This change is expected to set the standard for future OnePlus flagships.

 

Conclusion

The OnePlus 13s is a bold move by OnePlus into the compact flagship space — a market segment that’s heating up quickly. With its powerful specs, AI-powered software, high-end display, and modern features like the new Plus Key, the 13s offers tremendous value. While the lack of an ultra-wide camera may disappoint some, the overall package is incredibly compelling at its starting price of ₹54,999.
