OnePlus 13 camera upgrades: The rumors
New ultra-wide and telephoto cameras
Things are a bit vague, and we don’t have all of the details, but a rather reliable leaker going by the nickname Digital Chat Station says that the OnePlus 13 will use the Sony IMX882 image sensor for its new 50 MP ultra-wide and 3x telephoto cameras.
The Sony IMX882 has already been used in the mid-range OnePlus Ace 3V that previously launched in China.
Hasselblad partnership continues
OnePlus’ partnership with Swedish company Hasselblad will continue, hints Digital Chat Station. Last year, Hasselblad’s involvement in the OnePlus 12‘s camera system was instrumental in enhancing image quality.
The partnership resulted in improved detail preservation, sharper subject rendering, and enhanced zooming and cropping capabilities. Additionally, the Hasselblad Master Mode was introduced, providing users with a suite of advanced editing tools for creative expression. It is still unclear with what Hasselblad will contribute this year.
AI-enhanced camera
Like all other phones in the past couple of years, we expect OnePlus to come in guns blazing with the announcement of the OnePlus 13, equipping its latest flagship with powerful AI features that will improve image quality and allow for creative tweaking in post production.
