The OnePlus 13s has officially been launched in India, serving as a rebranded version of the OnePlus 13T that was previously introduced in China. While the two models share a striking resemblance and most specifications, there is one key difference: the OnePlus 13s has a slightly smaller battery. Despite being smaller, the battery size remains impressive for a phone of this size.

The OnePlus 13T features a 6,260mAh battery, which is substantial even for larger smartphones. In contrast, the OnePlus 13s is equipped with a 5,850mAh battery, which is still more than sufficient for daily use. For context, the Galaxy S25 comes with a 4,000mAh battery and a 6.2-inch display, while the OnePlus 13s offers a 5,850mAh battery with a 6.32-inch display, highlighting its efficiency.

Design-wise, the OnePlus 13s maintains a premium build with an aluminum and glass construction. It features a flat display, a flat backplate, and a straightforward frame design. The camera island is located in the top-left corner, and there’s a custom key on the left side that replaces the conventional alert slider.

Powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, the device offers 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and storage options of 256GB or 512GB depending on the model. The 6.32-inch 1.5K LTPO AMOLED display boasts an adaptive refresh rate of up to 120Hz, and the phone comes pre-installed with Android 15 and OxygenOS 15. OnePlus promises four years of OS updates and six years of security updates.

Moreover, the 5,850mAh battery supports 80W SuperVOOC fast charging but lacks wireless charging capabilities. Photography needs are met with a 50-megapixel main camera and a 50-megapixel telephoto lens. Users will find a 32-megapixel front camera as well.

The phone, available in Black Velvet, Pink Satin, and a unique India-exclusive Green Silk color, is priced starting at INR 54,999, approximately $641. With its features and design, the OnePlus 13s stands out as a compact powerhouse in the competitive smartphone market.
