The Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 launch is just around the corner, which is why the pre-orders of one of the flagships to feature this SoC, the OnePlus 13, have started, giving early adopters a chance to experience an entirely new silicon, along with other upgrades. Of course, to entice buyers to entertain a pre-order, OnePlus is giving some freebies that are worth $374, which we will discuss below.
Official announcement of the OnePlus 13 will commence next year, according to the teaser poster, a few days after the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 unveiling
Based on the teaser poster shared by Mukul Sharma on X, the OnePlus 13 could be unveiled next week, as the machine translation using Google Lens states, ‘See you next week!’ along with the tagline ‘Everything Super Pro,’ which implies that apart from the hardware upgrades, we should also see an improvement in the display and camera. Furthermore, as mentioned above, early adopters will be rewarded with a pair of OPPO Enco R3 wireless earbuds, along with a OnePlus-branded ‘Polarwood Travel Cup,’ and a battery replacement guarantee for two years.
The machine translation also reveals that buyers can reserve their OnePlus 13 for as low as 1 yuan, meaning that the flagship could get a ton of traction in the coming days. The teaser poster does not mention the actual retail price of the OnePlus 13, nor does it provide details as to how many configurations will be available during the official launch. Fortunately, in a previous report, we found out that the flagship will offer a 24GB LPDDR5X RAM variant, along with a customized version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4.
The OnePlus 13 could also feature a massive 6,000mAh battery, with wired and wireless charging support that goes up to 100W and 50W, respectively. Looking at everything that you are getting with the premium handset, perhaps the only deciding factor remaining is the price. At present, the 12GB RAM variant of the OnePlus 12 is retailing for $649.99 on Amazon after a 19 percent discount, so even if a $749.99 price is targeted for the OnePlus 13’s base model, it can potentially become a winner for the company.
