The OnePlus 13T is just around the corner, and the hype is building. OnePlus has been steadily revealing details about its upcoming compact flagship, confirming many of the rumors circulating for months. This article summarizes everything we know so far about the OnePlus 13T, from its powerful processor to its impressive battery life.
A Powerful Compact Device
OnePlus initially teased the 13T’s existence on April Fool’s Day, later confirming its April 24th launch date. Since then, benchmark tests and leaked marketing videos have hinted at the phone’s impressive specifications, including Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. Leaked images and official teasers showcase a sleek design with a square camera housing, flat edges, and three color options. OnePlus President Louis Li even compared the 13T’s slim bezels and punch-hole front camera to the Apple iPhone 16 Pro.
Massive Battery Life: The Glacier Battery
One of the most exciting features of the OnePlus 13T is its massive battery. A recent post on OnePlus’ official Weibo account confirmed the inclusion of a “6,260mAh glacier battery,” touted as a world-first. This new battery technology, previously seen in the OnePlus Ace 3 Pro (albeit with a slightly smaller 6,100mAh capacity), promises higher energy density, extended lifespan, and faster charging speeds. While not officially confirmed, the Ace 3 Pro’s 100W fast charging, capable of a 1% to 100% charge in just 36 minutes, could also make its way to the 13T.
Compact Design, Big Power
OnePlus emphasizes that the 13T, weighing in at just 185g, “completely puts an end to the anxiety of small-screen battery life.” The Weibo post playfully compares the phone’s ability to house such a large battery in a compact frame to fitting an elephant in a refrigerator – a feat accomplished in “just one step.”
The Final Reveal
With a recent Weibo post revealing the phone’s front design, there’s little left to unveil. However, the official launch on April 24th will provide full specifications, design details, pricing, and availability. The OnePlus 13T promises a compelling combination of power and portability, and we’re eager to see how it performs in real-world use.
Conclusion
The OnePlus 13T is shaping up to be a significant contender in the compact flagship market. Its powerful processor, massive battery, and sleek design make it a device to watch. We’ll be following the April 24th launch closely and providing a comprehensive review once the device is available. Stay tuned for more updates.
