- Well designed product
- Performance is consistent
- Design is comfortable to hold in hand. Sleek design and not heavy
- Almost stock Android experience. UI customizations specific to OnePlus are well thought through. It is offering all the customizations I was looking for and it is very easy to configure them. No need install additional apps.
- Camera performance is good. Takes good pictures. Still have few bugs related to 4k video capture. But I don't use 4K much anyway.
- I think this phone is best value for money
- This is a perfect android phone for me. I have tried Samsung s25 ultra and s25 plus and finally settled down with Oneplus 13

It’s not a bad phone overall.
Just some things I really did not like about it. That could actually be problems like with the particular unit I got, but it just took me a few days to realize his phone wasn’t for me.
I had a OnePlus 7 pro McLaren edition years ago, it was awesome.
This one did not capture the same feeling in me.
I have a 15 Pro Max, which is just about two years old. I had planned to sell that after purchasing this but after using this for just one day I already knew I was going to return it one full day. Set it up in the afternoon, use it the next day for the full day and I already decided at that point.
Pros.
1. Physically it looks nice. Beautiful screen.
2. Nice design(one exception, that be down below in the negatives), feels very good in the hand
3. Very snappy feeling interface.
Negatives
1. The one aesthetic thing I don’t like about it is the slightly off-center camera bump just commit go all the way to the side or put it in the center. It just seems a little awkward to have it just slightly off Center..
2. The phone feels bloaty. Maybe it’s just cause I haven’t used android in two years full-time or maybe this is more of the OnePlus add-ons but I don’t mean bloaty like a ton of extra software, but just the operating system itself, feels bloated and complicated. And this is not just an iPhone user and I need simplicity. It’s just very busy compared to it. I would say honestly even like Samsung‘s interface which I’ve used a little bit recently. I know it’s supposed to be stock android-ish but they did not feel that to me at least with Samsung. It feels like they put more effort into it or just made it work better.
3. The speakers were not great. They got loud, but anything above maybe 60% sounded just washed out and not very good.
3. Wireless charging with a MagSafe compatible case.(to be fair not official from op) but every third-party case I ever used on my last android phone, which was Samsung worked with the MagSafe and every third-party case including the two or three dollar ones you get on AliExpress or Temu have worked with my iPhone this one it would say it was charging slow slowly, which I understand, but the battery would drain over the course of like 15, 20 minutes it would drive one or 2% consistently.
4. Cameras. I read and watched several reviews on the camera system of this phone and all of them said it’s not amazing but it’s very good or very usable. At least I found it really bad and anything but perfect light or normal daylight any dark areas there is noisy and it’s in the pictures. When it came to video, the image stabilization really did not seem all that great and the audio recording again, not great compared to the Samsung and Apple.
I really wanted to like this phone. I was really trying to get back into android I think I’m gonna have to wait for the S 26 and try it out or maybe the OP 15 in a couple of months this is actually my 4th one plus phone. This is the first one I can honestly say I did not like I wanted to on paper. It looked great but in person it just really wasn’t for me and.

Great phone if you like the larger size compared to a Pixel 9Pro. Great phone if you like fast charging, dual physical sim, charging brick/ cable coming with. Great phone for pictures with so many options for photo enthusiasts. Everything Android is very similar to Pixels except for the call transcribing, business verification's and everything you get with Pixels...
There's a couple of included apps that come with OnePlus devices like, Community which is a good place to share or get in touch with OS developers, the Clock app which I prefer over Googles clock app especially for "alarms". Phone Clone is another one where you can back up your device for transfer to another 1+ device or save to an external USB for later. OnePLus store app if you desire also.
So, all the other variants world wide accept this North American variant have started to receive a February update which you can find more info about in the Community Portal. These devices sold through Best Buy are exactly that NA variants as the word id 1+ is working on an update with no mentioned timeline so the middle of February and this device is on December Android Security update with the most current update that was delivered in fro January 23rd.
Battery life is exceptional but be careful with restoring from a different manufacturer since the settings from the past phone may not jive with 1+'s phone. What may happen is notifications may not be as they were and battery life may not be what you expect. Tweaking may ensue or a total reset and start from scratch; I don't mind tweaking so I did a restore from a Pixel and battery life is amazing.
I'll second my comment about the camera, so many functions and my personal opinion I like the photos better then the Pixel 9 Pro but photos are subjective.
To be honest I bought one then paid the $49 dollar restock fee and later purchased again since I really enjoyed the new experience of a phone that was different and an OS that was different. 1+ is not cookie cutter like an ULTRA, iPhone or Pixel.

Reception: A beast compared to your iPhone, especially in sketchy zones. Real-world users are actually impressed.
Why it matters: Higher signal means fewer dropped calls, faster data, and far less frustration.
Bonus perks: Killer battery life, flagship performance, solid cameras—at a more forgiving price.

Battery life and charging is excellent. Cameras are pretty good, honestly the big 3 probably do it better (iphone, samsung, google) but this phone is good enough. The rounded corners make it feel like an iphone which i like. I do wish they phone itself didn't curve on the screen. I pretty much have to have a case on in bed to use it do to the lack of good palm rejection. Speakers are just fine. You can do better but these are solid. They finally made this phone waterproof which is needed considering my oneplus 12 fell in a pool and had to wait weeks before the water left the lenses. If this phone had wifi calling on AT&T, I would make this my main cell phone easily. Also I assume they read reviews. Oneplus, please allow us to duplicate all apps (discord). If you're on android and tired of samsung putting out the same phone, give this a try. If you're on iOS and want to give android a try, I think this is solid.

This phone rocks. First of all, availability and speed of shipping from BestBuy was great.
As for the phone. Its not a Pixel, its not a Galaxy. Its better. This phone is super performant and had a great style. BTW, the battery never seems to slow down.
It seems lighter than comparable phones from other manufacturers and the camera cant be beat. If you haven't looked at OnePlus and you want a premium android phone you need to check it out.

Excellent phone, exceeded my expectations in every way.
Battery life is easily 2 days, reaching over 12 hours of screen on time. Phone is incredibly fast and smooth, with no lag or stutters to date. The fast charging is also very convenient, as just plugging it in while I shower is enough charge my phone for the day. The wireless charging is equally amazing in terms of speed.
One feature i wasn't expecting to like so much is the aquatouch. It's surprisingly useful to be able to use your phone keyboard without any issues in the rain, and it certainly adds to the versatility of the device. Oneplus is basically offering flagship quality plus more here without any compromises and for a cheaper price.

The OnePlus 13 lives up to the hype. This phone is one of the best phones I have ever used. The design is original and beautiful, not like all other slab type phones. The display, battery, overall performance and durability is suburb. The cameras are not the best on a smartphone, but they are more than what you need for the typical smartphone user. Overall, the best flagship phone for the price.

The phone has been a pleasure to use for daily tasks.It perfectly meets my needs for a reliable phone.
Calls are clear, and messaging works without a hitch.
The battery life is excellent for getting through a full day of use.
It handles browsing the internet and social media smoothly.
The camera takes good pictures for sharing with friends and family. As someone who isn't a tech expert, I appreciate how straightforward this phone is to use.You don't need to be a gadget guru to get the most out of this device. This phone it a no brainer. All the specs of a premium phone are here.

Very good battery life, good audio, checks basically all the boxes for me.
So far I can get well over an entire day of usage and still have some left for the next day. The charging has options you can enable to help extend the lifetime of the battery which is quite helpful, I haven't seen that in many devices over the years.
screen brightness is great, I actually find I have to run it below the maximum which is a pleasant surprise.
If you buy this phone, plan on ordering a case online elsewhere, BB basically doesn't have any cases for it which is kind of crummy, there are several good options out there.
The camera on OnePlus devices has always been really good, I don't think that you'll be upset with it at all and the options that you can change for a more professional look gives it the feel of a much more expensive phone for the price.
Video recording was good, I don't do a ton of it so I'm probably not the best person to judge but it has done 4K video quite nicely without any issues on both the front and the rear camera.
Basically what I'm getting at is, if you don't want to indulge in all this AI garbage and you want a solid phone that actually lets you change things and customize it the way you want.. this may be a good fit for you.

Wow! This is a very unique phone. The performance is overkill coming from a Pixel user. To begin the animations and haptic feedback are very responsive. The battery is a total monster and if manage to kill it in a day, One Plus includes an 80 WATT supercharger to charge the beast in about 30 mins to 100%. The cameras are amazing on this phone. Overall, I am beyond impressed with this phone.

Thought it would be to large coming from a Pixel 9 but it's not even with a case. It performs daily tasks and even one time Google oriented tasks way better than the Pixel. I use Web Messages on a Mac and Windows PC with Android and not once with the Pixel did I ever get the three pictures to match when connecting from web to phone but with the 1+ it works flawlessly. Sure I'll miss all the conversation transcribing you get with a Pixel but I'm not a big phone talker so MEH. I'll have to say though after unboxing in January and seeing the Google Security update of November was up to date is a bit of a concern. All the reading I did confirmed 1+ was slow or released Security updates bi-Monthly which seems to be the case currently.
Other than than this one thing this device makes me think that a Google device like the Pixel has been over ranked in my book when it comes to daily phone tasks. Here's just a short list of what the 1+13 handles better on Android than a Google Pixel; auto fill passwords, OTP's, connecting to Messages on web, and personal or system customization's throughout. This is not your cookie cutter device like an iPhone, Pixel or Samsung but can be if you're looking for a device that you can make your own with it's incredible attributes.
Yes there might be a $45 dollar restocking fee if you open it and give it a try but for this 60+ year old who is comfortable with various Android and current iPhone devices the experience has been breathtaking! I would've thought that Pixel should reign supreme when it comes to Android OS but that's not the case and for what you get comparatively I'm really surprised by what 1+ has delivered!
***On a final note; my before purchase investigation warned of 1+ not working on VISIBLE esim so I transferred to VISIBLE physical sim and I'm getting more bars than the Pixel 9 so...

Awesome phone, thin & light. The software and UI are blazing fast everything you throw at this phone just runs well. The cameras are excellent, the zooming isnt as good as S25 Ultra but otherwise these cameras hold their own. THis phone is an excellent value. Also insane battery life!

Very smooth! Screen is very nice, clear and bright. Processor keeps up with everything and memory keeps it running very smoothly. The feel of the phone is great, it has a great in hand feel. The only down side to this phone is the curved glass at the edges. If it were flat screen it would be the perfect phone.

The best phone you can buy right now. I've used a lot of different phones, android and iOS, and this is the best one I've ever used. Blazing fast, doesn't overheat, great camera, remarkable battery life, and it doesn't have a lot of downsides.

..but this is definitely up there. Unbox the phone and youll be immediately greeted by a super fast, responsive phone beyond anything by Samsung, Apple, Google, so on. I genuinely think, after using it for a day, theres nothing that can disappoint you on the OnePlus 13. The camera, battery, display, build quality, its all amazing.

This phone rocks! The OS is so nice and it doesn't have all the bloat ware that are on competing brands. It is so easy to control what is on this phone. Super fast and brilliant display. Love the IR feature for my TV.
