Information about the upcoming OnePlus 13 is starting to surface, despite the recent release of the OnePlus 12 in December. Rumors suggest that significant changes are in store for the camera system of the new phone.
According to leaks from Digital Chat Station on Weibo (via NotebookCheck), both the design and quality of the cameras on the OnePlus 13 will be different from its predecessor. While details are sparse and translation may not be perfect, it is hinted that the distinctive camera housing of the OnePlus 12 will be altered.
Specifically, focus is being put on the 50MP main camera and the periscope camera, which had a 64MP sensor with 3x optical zoom on the OnePlus 12. It is speculated that OnePlus may adopt similar camera technology from its parent company, Oppo, known for its superior camera capabilities.
More power and security
Additionally, it is rumored that the OnePlus 13 will be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset, a significant upgrade from the current Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 used in the OnePlus 12. The new phone is also expected to feature a 2K screen and an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for enhanced security.
While these leaks should be taken with caution, the OnePlus 13 seems poised to be a notable improvement in various aspects. With the OnePlus 12 already praised for its design, OnePlus will need to impress with the new model.
