On May 23rd, according to the tech blogger Digital Chat Station, the OnePlus 13 is set to focus on high performance, premium feel, and a large battery.
The industrial design of this device has undergone significant changes. The front features a 2K LTPO slightly curved screen. Compared to traditional curved screens, the slightly curved LTPO screen provides a more comfortable visual experience and a tactile feel that traditional curved screens cannot match.
The rear camera design has also been adjusted, with a centrally placed circular camera module housing the main camera, periscope telephoto lens, and ultra-wide-angle lens.
In terms of core configuration, the first batch of OnePlus 13 will be equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen4 mobile platform and feature a new generation of silicon anode batteries.
It is understood that silicon-based anode batteries have a higher energy density, with a theoretical specific capacity of up to 4200mAh/g, which is about 10 times higher than graphite anodes. Currently, silicon-based anode materials are known to have the highest specific capacity among lithium-ion battery anode materials, which can increase the mass energy density of lithium batteries by over 8%.
Furthermore, the OnePlus 13 is also expected to support in-display ultrasonic fingerprint recognition, and the device is set to debut by the end of this year.
