The OnePlus 13R also stands out with its 6,000mAh battery, offering an increase over the 5,500mAh battery in the OnePlus 12R. From a design perspective, the device will feature a slim profile with a flat-screen and Gorilla Glass 7i protection on both the front and back, offering better scratch protection. With that said, the aluminum frame gives it a premium feel, and it is also only 8mm thick, so it feels slick and easy to hold.

From the rear, it will include a stepped triple-camera system. These cameras are designed to provide better photography, giving users the potential to capture crisp, focused shots with detail even when the subject is moving quickly, such as when taking shots of children or pets.

Although not much is known about the official specifications yet apart from the chipset, it’s likely that the 13R will arrive with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, which is the standard for the R-series models as they use a year-old flagship processor. Recent leaks have claimed that the device may come with a 6.78-inch 1.5K LTPO display and a 50-megapixel triple camera system. The phone is also expected to pack a 6,300mAh battery with 100W fast charging support.

As for the price, the OnePlus 13R is expected to be priced under ₹45,000, following the OnePlus 12R, which launched at ₹39,999. With the inclusion of a charger in the box and an overall impressive feature set, the OnePlus 13R is shaping up to be a highly anticipated device in the mid-range smartphone category.
