Previously thought to be simply a rebranding of the forthcoming OnePlus Ace 5 for the Chinese market, the OnePlus 13R will distinguish itself from that model in at least one significant aspect: battery capacity.
OnePlus has announced that the 13R will feature a 6,000 mAh battery, which is consistent with the flagship OnePlus 13. However, this capacity is lower than what was speculated for the OnePlus Ace 5.
Additionally, OnePlus has confirmed that the 13R will come equipped with a flat display protected by Gorilla Glass 7i on both the front and back, as well as an aluminum frame.
The device will be available internationally in two color options: Nebula Noir and Astral Trail (the latter shown in the image above). The OnePlus 13R will have a thickness of 8mm. At the upcoming event, the two new phones will be accompanied by a new color variant for the already released OnePlus Buds Pro 3: Sapphire Blue.
The OnePlus 13, the company’s flagship model, was recently unveiled in China, showcasing the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC. It features a 6.82-inch LTPO AMOLED display with a resolution of 2K and a refresh rate of 120Hz.

The smartphone is powered by a robust 6,000mAh battery, supporting 100W SuperVOOC wired charging as well as 50W wireless charging.
