OnePlus Announces Launch Date for OnePlus 13s, Its First Compact Flagship, Set for June 5
Flagship Power Packed into a Compact Design
Powered by the latest Qualcomm® Snapdragon® 8 Elite platform, the OnePlus 13s is engineered to handle everything from intense multitasking and high-end gaming to advanced on-device AI smoothly and efficiently. Whether you’re switching apps on the fly, gaming during your commute, or braving Delhi’s scorching 45°C summer heat, this phone stays fast, responsive, and cool.
To tackle heat in its compact frame, OnePlus has integrated a massive 4400mm² Cryo-Velocity Vapor Chamber — one of the largest in its class — along with an industry-first cooling layer on the back cover. This innovative cooling system ensures the device remains cool to the touch, even during marathon gaming sessions or long video calls.
Battery Life That Keeps Up With You
Despite its slim profile, the OnePlus 13s boasts the best battery life ever seen on a compact phone. In rigorous testing with Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI), it maintained a stable frame rate for an impressive 7 hours on a single charge. For everyday use, it offers 24 hours of continuous WhatsApp calls and 16 hours of seamless Instagram browsing — perfect for staying connected all day long.
Elegant Design with India-Exclusive Colors
The OnePlus 13s introduces a fresh, minimalist design language with a clean camera module and smooth lines. At just 8.15mm thick and weighing 185g, it’s perfectly balanced for comfortable one-handed use, featuring a curved 2.5D front and back for a natural grip.
Available in three stunning colors — Black Velvet, Pink Satin, and the India-exclusive Green Silk — each shade tells its own story. Inspired by the olive tree, Green Silk symbolizes growth and renewal, blending OnePlus’s iconic green heritage with a fresh, nature-inspired vibe. The Pink and Green variants debut a new Velvet Glass finish, offering a soft, skin-like texture that feels luxurious in hand.
Smarter Interaction with the New Plus Key
OnePlus has reimagined the classic Alert Slider with the all-new Plus Key — a customizable button that lets you switch between Sound, Vibration, Do Not Disturb, AI tools, and more with a single press. This user-centric feature makes everyday interactions faster, smarter, and more personal.
Stay Connected with Advanced Antenna Technology
Compact phones often struggle with signal strength, but the OnePlus 13s tackles this with an upgraded 360° antenna system featuring 11 antennas, including 3 high-performance modules for superior gaming and streaming. A unique four-mode ultra-wideband low-frequency antenna optimizes signal reception, while a self-developed signal-balanced mode boosts signal strength by up to 60%, reducing interference caused by hand placement.
The phone also features India’s only independently integrated G1 Wi-Fi chipset, ensuring stable, fast Wi-Fi — even in challenging environments like the Delhi metro or crowded buildings. Plus, with 5.5G support, the OnePlus 13s can connect to three network cells simultaneously, delivering the most reliable mobile connectivity on the go.
What’s Next?
The OnePlus 13s marks a new milestone in compact flagship innovation, combining power, style, and smart features in a sleek package designed for modern users. Stay tuned for the official launch event on June 5, 2025, where OnePlus will reveal more exciting details about this game-changing device.
