OnePlus 13s India Launch: OnePlus is set to unveil its first compact flagship, the OnePlus 13s, tomorrow—expanding the OnePlus 13 series, which already includes the standard OnePlus 13 and the more affordable 13R. The launch event will be streamed live at 12 noon IST.

Positioned as a premium yet compact alternative in the Android space, the OnePlus 13s is expected to go head-to-head with rivals like the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, Google Pixel 9a, and even the upcoming iPhone 16e.

Under the hood, the 13s will run on Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, paired with up to 12GB of LPDDR5x RAM and 512GB of onboard storage. From what’s been teased so far, the device features a dual rear camera setup, likely led by a 50 MP main sensor and accompanied by an ultrawide lens. A 32 MP front camera could also be part of the package.

Design-wise, the phone features a sleek 8.15mm profile and weighs in at approximately 185 grams. Both the front and back are crafted in a curved 2.5D design for a premium in-hand feel. It will be available in three finishes: Black Velvet, Pink Satin, and Green Silk.

One of the highlights might be its sizable battery—rumoured to be above 5,000mAh—packed into a compact chassis and backed by fast charging support. OnePlus is also equipping the phone with a large 4400mm² Cryo-Velocity vapour chamber to keep thermals in check during heavy use.
