Customer Ratings & Reviews

Having used the OnePlus 13, I can confidently say it's a fantastic device. The display is a feast for the eyes, performance is incredibly fast, and the battery life easily gets me through the day. The cameras capture stunning photos, and the fast charging is a game-changer. This phone is a solid choice for anyone seeking a premium experience at a lower price point. Until 2023, I had only used iPhones—from 2008 to 2023—and never tried any other Android brands. I got my first OnePlus device, the OnePlus 12, sometime in 2023, and the OnePlus 13 has been an even better experience overall. That said, I’ve encountered some issues with both the OnePlus 12 and 13 related to Google account integration and OnePlus software. I'm not sure if others have faced the same problems, but I think it's worth mentioning.

Last year OnePlus released one of their best devices, a return to their roots one would say with the OnePlus 12. A phenomenal device that offered flagship specs at a price that was simply unbeatable in the USarlet even at the highest storage option. It wasn't perfect but it was very close, but that meant the successor had to do more to really stack up to its predecessor. This year's OnePlus 13 is just that. It takes everything that went into the 13 and amps it up a little bit more and creates an even more capable device if you can even believe that while still being at a very reasonable price for what's offered. Continuing the trend that OnePlus is known for which is building a device to make the most out of the chipset it's using, the 13 is no slouch when it comes to raw performance and capabilities. Yes the main camera is technically a minor downgrade but with that you gain a bigger and better battery, a powerhouse SnapDragon Elite and charging speeds that embarrass the competition with the best screen on a mobile device to date and the first ever to receive an A++ rating from displaymate. The 13 is sturdy and build to last and it better be as OnePlus brought not only IP68 to the table but went a step further and got IP69 as well. So this thing is built to last and literally take the heat. And when it's hot you can blast it with some water jets and it'll still live (I gambled and tried this with a high pressure sanitation hose and and still running strong). The OnePlus 13 is easily the most powerful device they've brought to the table and definitely deserves a place on your radar if you're in for a market for a brand new device. It's sleek and powerful and is still going to undercut the competition with it's great price for value. It may not be 100% flat screen like it's little brother the 13R but it's certainly a polished device with subtle curves that don't pose high damage risks. Seriously if you're wanting a phone that can do it all and charge at 100w from dead to full in less that half an hour then this is the device you're looking for. I purchased the black variant that has a rosewood-like design on its glass back similar to how the previous OnePlus 12 had a flowy Emerald that look like marvel and flowing water. It's definitely a beautiful phone with the light catches those subtle lines creating the wood-like texture. The white version is a glossy burlescent white that matches with one plus is white accessory designs. And the blue version features a plastic back with a microfiber vegan leather finish on the top of it that truly stands out. And because the back is made out of plastic you don't have to worry about breaking it. Seriously don't overlook this brand and what it has to offer especially when it comes to the 13 series.

This phone if it was marketed better and gotten into the hands of more people would be a serious serious competitor to Samsung. I fell in love with oneplus phones since oneplus 7 series. The 13 is a very sharp and powerful phone. Hardware is top of the line with max amount of ram available in the US and lots of storage. The phone is blazing quick with the newest chipset and great connectivity too. The vibration motor I gotta mention is so crisp and high quality I love the use of it in the UI elements. Cameras are pretty good! I gotta say this the best camera oneplus has produced and it speaks for itself. The images are vibrant and sharp in daylight and lowlight in telephoto, normal and, wide angle and I do love the 100x zoom capability. I don’t use that much but it’s nice to be able to zoom in certain needed moments like reading a sign or something from far away. So camera is not a weak point of this phone. It definitely is a solid set of cameras in my opinion. I have used 25 ultra, iPhone 16 pro and pixel 9 pro. While this isn’t number one out of those bunch it is top ranked in my book. Software and update experience is pretty great in my opinion. I love oxygen os and its clean, fast and smooth experience. In my usage I prefer Oxygen OS way over One UI in terms of smoothness and speed. The animations are so good and I can’t stress that. I know they provide 4 years of software updates and 6 years of security patches. Which is more than fine for me as I upgrade every two years roughly. Design is pretty good but I do have some nitpicks with it. I definitely wish the camera module was centered like the Oppo x8 ultra or xiaomi 15 ultra. It just would make the phone look better imo. I don’t know the reason why they went asymmetrical but it’s only part of the phone I don’t like that much. Otherwise the front is gorgeous with a beautiful display which is mostly flat now, yay! The back finish on the glass is otherworldly compared to Samsung and apple. The texture is so premium and love the pattern which is wood grain like inside the glass. Made frame is great too. I’ve used all colors of the phone and I very much like all colors but black is amazing since the rails are matte and don’t really pick up much fingerprints and camera module blends in nicely. The phone is definitely worth its price tag but I know on oneplus website they have deals from time to time and also sign up for student discount if you are student in college for cheaper price.

Build : 4/5 the device is very well build but it does feel a bit slippery. The camera bump has a weird placement that affects how you hold the phone. Screen: 5/5 great screen, vivid colors if desired it has a pro mode screen that has less punch and the natural recommend option which is the default. The rounded corners might be an issue as they interfere with some options and menus from apps. Battery: 3.8/5. Good with a caveat: the reason a give the battery a 3.8 out of 5 and is something no tech tuber will tell you is that while the battery has a new tech and faster charging then other OEMs, OnePlus uses a lot and I mean a lot of software trick and limitations to achieve great battery numbers. Those are probably the numbers you see from tech tubers. The reality is that if you have and use the device with the highest screen quality, no aggressive app sleeping ( affects notifications) And use it at its highest performance it will last just as much as the other device at least in my usage ( I also owe a s25 ultra.) it is great when using it's default settings. Performance: 5/5 As expected it's top tier. Be aware that if you game the render resolution is lower to maintain performance on the op13. Dor any other user it would matter as it is super smooth. It does have some bugs software side that will be addressed by op in updates.

**OnePlus 13: Power and Refinement in an Affordable Flagship** I recently purchased the **OnePlus 13** at Best Buy, and after several weeks of use, I can confidently say it’s one of the most well-balanced smartphones on the market. If you’re looking for high performance without paying an ultra-premium price, here’s my experience. #### **What I Love Most:** ✅ **Stunning Display:** The **6.8" LTPO AMOLED panel with 120Hz** is vibrant and smooth. Colors are accurate, brightness is excellent under sunlight, and the always-on display (AOD) is very handy. ✅ **Long-Lasting Battery:** The **6000 mAh** battery + **100W fast charging** (included in the box) are a winning combo. It charges from **0% to 100% in ~25 minutes** and lasts **a day and a half** with moderate use. ✅ **OxygenOS 15 (Android 15):** Almost no bloatware, clean and customizable interface. Updates arrive quickly, and productivity tools (Zen Mode, split-screen) work great. ✅ **Premium Design:** The **matte glass** finish (fingerprint-resistant) and subtle curved edges make it comfortable and elegant. #### **Areas for Improvement:** ❌ **Camera: Good, But Not the Best** - The triple-camera setup (50MP + 48MP + 64MP) captures detailed photos, but the processing sometimes overdoes contrasts. - Night mode has improved but still trails behind the Pixel 8 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro. ❌ **No IP68 Rating (in Some Markets)** - Some versions only have **IP54**, limiting dust/water resistance compared to other flagships. ❌ **Rising Price** - While still cheaper than a Galaxy S24 Ultra, OnePlus is no longer the "flagship killer" it once was. #### **Verdict:** The **OnePlus 13** is an excellent smartphone for those who prioritize **performance, display, and fast charging** over having the absolute best camera. If you want a fast, well-built device with great battery life, it’s a solid choice. However, if photography is your top priority, you might want to consider alternatives. **Recommended for:** Gamers, multitaskers, users who hate slow charging. **Not recommended for:** Mobile photography enthusiasts or those needing maximum water resistance.

Great Android Device, Solid value for what you’re getting and what you're paying for it. This is such an easy to like Android Device, has a great user experience, the battery life insane and lasts over two days with normal or average usage. Camera is good, not iPhone quality but I'm happy with it. The OnePlus user interface is very simple, and clean with plenty of features OnePlus added that makes Android and this particular device a lot more user friendly, and is very fast. Honestly I'll take this device over any other Android even over a Pixel Device, the battery alone wins any other Android device currently in the market, plus the hardware is sexy, I know is weird to use that word to describe a phone but it truly is a work of art. But ultimately is personal preference, maybe is because I've always been a fan of OnePlus devices and their go to market strategy. Overall I recommend it.

Absolutely Love this phone. My first oneplus phone was the 12R and I was super impressed with that phone. I was coming to oneplus from Samsung after they repeatedly denied to honor their warranty on the Z Fold phones. I can't continue to support a company that doesn't stand behind their products. So I switched to oneplus, and I haven't looked back. Oneplus puts so many great features in their phones for a great price, which makes them an incredible value. I have now upgraded to the 13 and all I can say is wow. It's incredible. The camera takes the best photos I have ever seen on a phone. The battery life is outstanding, the charge time is faster than any other phone with the included 80 watt charger. The os is lightning fast, and very smooth. It also includes features that aren't available on samsung phones, one of which is beaconlink. The face unlock and fingerprint reader is really fast, not slow or clunky like samsung. The screen is very bright even in the sun. Transferring data from an old phone to oneplus is a breeze with the clone app. I transfered 240gb of data from the old phone to the new phone in 35 min. And it wasn't even plugged in it was direct wireless connection. If you are on the fence, just buy it, you won't be disappointed. I have included a photo of the moon taken with the oneplus 13

I bought this phone because of the battery and charging speeds. There is simply no competition in the US that rivals one plus in terms of battery. A 6000mah battery and 100w charging is far and beyond what you can find on anything offered from Apple, Samsung, or Google. The phone can last for two days comfortably with light to moderate use. When it does need to charge 20-30 minutes and you'll be back to 100%. Other than battery the phone holds up with it's competition as a flagship, great display, adequate cameras, a fast and accurate fingerprint sensor, and the lastest snapdragon processor with 12/16gb of ram. The design is hit or miss with the back cameras, but if the big dinner plate on the back doesn't bother you, this is a great deal on top end specs and an amazing charging experience.

One of the best phones of the year. I will start with the cons since there are so few. -Preinstalled screen protector is low quality, scratches easily and attracts lint from pocket -Cameras can be hit or miss, not always consistent, otherwise they're great -Weird issue with WiFi band steering, specifically on wifi 6 (explained below) That's it, that's all the negatives I have to say, otherwise it is probably the best phone out there for what it costs. I love the display, the high PWM / DC dimming is so easy on the eyes. Colors are accurate and the display is bright. It is not anti-reflective like the S25U if that is important to you. I recommend getting a better screen protector though. Speakers are high end, better than my Pixel 9 Pro in my opinion but not as good as the S25U, just a bit behind in fullness. Form factor is amazing. I love the cherry wood black design of the back glass and the curve on the front is minimal. The design fits easily into your hand compared to most of the rectangle designs these days. (Note, some of the photos might be skewed due to the conversion from HEIC to JPG) The camera is hit or miss, I put some examples in the review. Most photos are outstanding. I love the Hasselblad tuning which is not the most accurate color, but it adds its own character. This phone is not afraid to use contrast which I prefer since most US phones these days rely too much on HDR to level out the photo and make it look flat. The main concern I have here is that highlights are often blown out by the camera which you may or may not like. Ensure you check out master mode for amazing quality and good control setup and also Xpan mode. The focal lengths are perfect for portraits with high resolutions. Connectivity is mostly outstanding but it is the only reason I took away a star. Cellular connectivity is the best out there. I believe there are 13 antennas around the phone so I got a strong signal in any orientation in almost all locations (T-Mobile) except for one dead zone I am aware of. My main issue was with wifi. Overall it works great and supports my house wifi 6e which was giving me 1100mbps speeds on speed test (not local network bandwidth which is likely higher). But... if your router has band steering enabled which combines 2.4ghz 5ghz and 6ghz together to allow the phone to choose the best frequency on your network using one only network name, the phone has issues choosing, Specifically if you are on 6ghz. I would walk away from my router and it would often fail to switch to 5ghz or 2.4ghz resulting in no connectivity as it tried to hold onto 6ghz. I had no issue in the same situations with my S25U or Pixel 9 Pro. When I disabled wifi band steering I could select the network manually and no issue. Unfortunately I have too many devices I did not want to reconfigure. I returned the device and got a replacement with the same issue. To most people this probably wont matter but it was a big issue in my case. Battery is stunning, this is a phone which gave me zero battery anxiety and allowed for extremely quick top ups with the included 80W charger. I recommend more people look at this phone as it is a contender for phone of the year.

Absolutely love this phone! Never wanted to go back to Apple and my Galaxy Z Flip 6 LCD friggin broke after like a few months, so i did some research on the best android around and OnePlus13 turned out to be the best overall android of 2025. Looked at important qualities like what photos would look like and read aome reviews, and needless to say, i am in love and so glad i made the jump to try a new brand. All of my friends and family keep asking me if i had the latest iPhone because of how crazy the photo quality is, and i keep laughing when i tell them its not an iPhone because YES an android can do better! Now my husband is tempted to switch from his Z fold to the OnePlus Open, and even our cousin is tempted to abandon iphone for the OnePlus13. Aside from amazing photos in portrait mode, battery life is great and the charger it comes with charges the phone insanely fast. Even with lightning chargers, if my z flip 6 is at 17% itll take a few hours. But with the OnePlus13 and the specific charger, at 17%, after like half an hour, its at 100%. I am so impressed with this phone and i hope it lasts me years.

Bought this because my OnePlus 7Pro was the best phone I've ever owned. Bought it new in 2018 and used it until it got run over by a car in October, 2025. My new 13 has incredible battery life and takes pics that rival the newest Apple and Samsung models for roughly $500 less. Before you buy another Samsung, do yourself a favor and check out OnePlus. Soooooo much more for the money!! I've included pics from our November 13th visit to Universal Studios to demonstrate the camera quality.

This is my 3rd OnePlus device after 7t pro McLaren and OP 11. I love it. 0 complaints. It worth every penny I have spent. Highest performance for low price. I'm very sad to learn that the manufacturer is going to repurpose the slider in the next model. I'm using the phone for about 6 months (heavy usage) and the battery health is still on 100% capacity. The one thing I'm missing is the pop up front camera (7t pro). Only one recommendation is to develop a screen protector which will fit perfectly...

I just bought the OnePlus 13 for $899 some two weeks ago, and I'm really impressed with what this phone can do. As a tech consumer, I required a flagship that could keep up with my heavy multitasking and gaming, and the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip is not a letdown. Whether I'm gaming with Genshin Impact or multitasking with apps, it's silky smooth. The 6.82-inch AMOLED screen is a dream—crisp, vibrant, and insanely bright at 4,500 nits. I’ve used it in direct sunlight, and it’s crystal clear. The AquaTouch 2.0 even let me swipe through a rainstorm without a hitch. The 6,000mAh battery is a behemoth, lasting me two days easily with middling use (streaming, social media, calls). Charging it up at 80W takes about 37 minutes, and the added 50W wireless charging feature is a nicety, but I had to buy a magnetic case to support Qi2 compatability, which was the hassle. It's also fantastically rugged at IP68/IP69—I mistakenly dropped it into a sink and it's fine. The Hasselblad cameras are mostly fantastic. The 50MP main, ultrawide, and 3x telephoto lenses snap stunning, detailed shots, especially in low light. That said, colors can feel a tad oversaturated, and zooming past 6x isn’t as sharp as my friend’s Galaxy S25 Ultra. OxygenOS 15 is slick and customizable, but I’m disappointed with only four years of updates—Google’s Pixel 9 gets seven. The Midnight Ocean vegan leather is premium in feel and non-smudge, although the camera bump is thick. It's easy to hold at 210g. At its price, the OnePlus 13 is a bargain, but I'd love it if the camera and software support kept pace with its otherwise excellent performance. Highly recommend it!

The screen alone with Aqua Touch 2.0 is one of the best reason I sold my iphone 16 pro max for this phone, as I've always have a sweaty palm and none of the currently out phones work well for me. The fact that BestBuy having it before Oneplus ship date is wild. I'm sad that I can't get all the free gifts from Oneplus such as the watch or the earbuds, and $100 dollar off when trade in any phone but other than that, trust me this phone is crazy good for the amount of money you paid for it. The charging speed is mind blowing, I limited my charge to 80% and plugged it in for 15 minutes in the morning, and it would last me the whole day and if its not? well I only need to charge it for another 15 minutes.

The day this phone became available at Best buy I immediately paid for it and picked it up at the store. I have never had a cell phone setup as quickly and as thoroughly as this one. This phone cannot be beat, Samsung can't even come close, this thing functions like a well-tuned Swiss watch, it's very very user friendly and you can tweak the settings to every need that you have, this is definitely the flagship phone of 2025, good job OnePlus and thank you Best buy because the price was very reasonable

The design is sleek, the display is super sharp, and everything runs buttery smooth thanks to the Snapdragon chipset. Battery life easily lasts a full day, even with heavy use. The cameras take crisp, vibrant shots, even at night, which was a nice surprise. OxygenOS is fast and clean, just how I like it. My only small complaint is that software updates could be a bit quicker, but overall, this phone is a beast. Definitely worth it!

Great phone, a little difficult learning the usage after having been with iPhone for so long, but I picked up on it. I love the phone design but the beveled screen does make it difficult to put on a screen protector, and the screen scratches easily. The camera is definitely the best part of the phone, and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an alternative to the iPhone 17

I have tried the pixel 9 pro xl, Samsung 24 ultra and Samsung 25 ultra and this beats them all. Biometrics are faster, charging is super fast, animations are faster, wifi signal is stronger and call audio is clearer. Camera, in my opinion is better, especially for portrait shots. It has action shot mode to capture clear images of pets or kids running around. Definitely the best value for high end Android phones. It comes with the super faster charger in the box!! Samsung and Google Pixel are both great devices too, but if you are wanting something super fast I believe you will be really happy with this device.

There's no proof that OnePlus is sending user data back to China, for that matter the iPhone has been built in Chine for decades SO .. THIS IS A POLITICAL SCARE! probably brought on by big business like Samsung, Apple, and Motorola (Motorola also made in China) to get more business in the US. My OnePlus 13 color is midnight ocean still going strong I've had it since January. The stock screen protector that came on the phone lasted me until mid month July with only a few rub marks so really good quality. Decided to change it with a self healing protector that's working great. OnePlus has some awesome features in their operating system which like Samsung, Motorola and every Android system is fine tuned to the specific Manufacturers build because they are not so the same. For instance OnePlus Oxygen OS which is build on Android features like being able to set a pin to turn off your phone so if lost it stolen the finder/ theif cannot disable the ability to locate your phone. It also has the ability to turn the phone on automatically if there's an alarm set and you got whatever reason turn your phone off, you won't miss that alarm day for work. The OnePlus 13 connects seamlessly to all Bluetooth devices IMO, better then my Pixel 9 Pro. It has Dual physical sim tray, comes with 512GB if storage that you don't pay extra for. For you picture lovers, the camera is amazing and has burst photos, XPAN, and a 120mm zoom. I myself enjoy the sure of charging, oh, it does come with a charging brick at no extra cost! OnePlus devices have been getting bought by by US customers and have been sold by big carriers ( until recently ) for years and we've enjoyed the user experience. All phone manufacturers have had their issues with some devices whether it be screens, exploding devices or parts but in general the OnePlus 13 is stellar.

Great phone. The first one I bought unfortunately did not connect to my carrier (Google Fi) but the 2nd one I got did so I think it was just defective. Everything is snappy, cameras are great, battery life is fantastic, and charge speeds are amazing. Oneplus has come a long way. They have defiantly tapped more into their Chinese roots with the software, packed with tons of features and customizations unlike something like a Google Pixel. I can tweak almost everything to how I want it to be, and the things I can't are already great out of the box,
