OnePlus 13 is expected to debut at the end of this year but we are already seeing rumours about the flagship phone on the Web. Most recently, a tipster has suggested the display specifications of the handset on Weibo. The OnePlus 13 is tipped to come with a 6.8-inch display, which is similar to the OnePlus 12. However, the OnePlus 13 is said to be powered by the upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 SoC. The OnePlus 12 was launched in January with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC.
Tipster Digital Chat Station (translated from Chinese) claimed that OnePlus is currently testing the OnePlus 13 with a 6.8-inch micro-curved LTPO screen with a 2K resolution. This hints that the upcoming phone will retain a similar display size as the OnePlus 12 with some general improvements.
Further, the OnePlus 13 is said to come with a new design and include an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. This would be a significant upgrade over the predecessor’s optical scanner. The tipster reiterated that the OnePlus 13 would offer a Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 SoC and a periscope telephoto camera.
Past leaks has showed the handset in a white shade with a Hasselblad-branded triple rear camera. The camera unit was earlier said to feature a 50-megapixel main camera alongside an ultrawide lens and a telephoto sensor.
