OnePlus confirms upgraded cameras for OnePlus 13, shares first samples [Gallery]

The OnePlus 13 is set to come with a slightly upgraded camera array packed in a very familiar body. OnePlus noted this change along with several camera samples to show off the new sensors.

In a large respect, the OnePlus 13 looks a lot like the OnePlus 12 that came before it. The shape, general size, and camera array all look similar. That’s not a bad thing, as the OnePlus 12 was easily one of the best phones the company has released. That includes the cameras packed within.

Still, OnePlus seemingly felt like the lineup needed to be upgraded in some respect. The company posted specs for the new OnePlus 13 cameras on Weibo, along with some stunning sample imagery (via GSMArena). The main camera will stay a wide lens with a Sony LYT-808 sensor – same sensor used on the OnePlus 12.

The 50MP periscope telephoto lens, however, has been adjusted to fit in a more compact space. OnePlus calls the new development a “multi-prism” design capable of 3x optical zoom. The periscope multi-prism lens carries an f/2.6 aperture and OIS, which is necessary for tight shots.

The samples posted to go along with the teaser showcase a camera that looks fully capable of capturing stunning photos. It’s hard to tell how much correction these images have undergone. Each is also tagged with Hasselblad branding, per the company’s collaborative nature with OnePlus.

This all comes packed into a phone that carries a Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, up to 24GB of RAM, and 1TB of storage. OnePlus looks to be planning to announce the OnePlus 13 and it’s new camera array on October 31.
