This phone is really good and impressive. I just downgrade from Samsung S24 ultra and I thought I made a wrong thing. But actually the phone performance and battery is really nice and impressive. Even it doesn't have wireless charging like one plus 13 pro, it will be good choice for the guys who want to get price and performance phone.

This phone has everything you could ask for. It has a superb bright screen, excellent performance, an incredible battery and great camera. It also has flat edges, the curved edges on the 12R are just awful. The bright screen alone makes it the best phone you can get for the money. The battery is also insane.

Thank you to the salesman that Sold me this Phone.
I know you know how I feel about Apple products. You gave me so many options but I had my mind made up about this One Plus, it's the Camera all about that camera. Oh it works like a dream much love to the Beat Buy Team.

I recently purchased the OnePlus 13R, and while it was listed as being in fair condition, I'm feel OK with the purchase. There is a small, almost unnoticeable dent on the top corner, but it's easily hidden with a phone case, so it's not a major concern.
The screen, however, is absolutely flawless. The battery life is fantastic – it easily lasts a full day of heavy use, which is a significant plus for me.
Have been using it for 3 weeks and the phone operates with remarkable speed and smoothness!!. Considering everything, I believe this phone offers exceptional value for the price, making it a worthwhile purchase despite the minor cosmetic imperfection.

This is a great phone. Very easy to use. The camera is fantastic, and when recording videos the sound quality comes through awesome when you play it back. I'm very happy with this phone and the quality customer service that I experienced at Best buy purchasing it. One of my favorite parts of this phone is the charger that's included it's like warp speed so it doesn't take long to charge to 100%. Can't recommend this phone enough.

I've been a loyal Motorola customer for a long time. To me, they've always had some of the best budget phones out there, especially for mid-range. Honestly, the gesture controls kept me hooked. I started with the G-power series and then moved on to the Edge. When my Edge 23 started giving me problems charging, I knew it was time for a new phone. Enter the OnePlus 13r. This is by far the Best phone I've ever had the pleasure of owning. Although it's similar in size to the Edge, it feels completely different. It's easier to hold, and has a much better display. The 12g ram absolutely blows Motorola's 8g away. This phone is blazing fast. The camera is more than enough for my daily needs, and the AI enhancements to the photos are amazing. But what I really can't get over is how insanely good the battery life is! Don't get me wrong, Motorolas have excellent battery life, especially the Edge, but this battery is next level. My Edge would last the entire day without a charge unless I was gaming, which is pretty good by any measure. The OnePlus 13r? This bad boy lasts all day and half the next day! Even If I'm gaming for an hour or two it will still be at at least 30% at the end of the day! I will say the 55W charging isn't quite as fast as my Edge was, but it's still really fast. The software is very similar to Motorola so using the phone was easy although I did look through the various options because there are so many on this thing! If they added "twist your wrist" to open the camera and "chop chop" for the flashlight this phone would be Perfect! OnePlus you have yourself a new customer.

I've had this phone for two weeks. The phone was on sale and I didn't want to spend a ton of money for flagship. I was not impressed with the battery life of the pixels and galaxy phones. It was a toss up between this phone and a pixel 8a. I have used them in the past and I REALLY hate that google bar that you can't get rid of. I also really don't care for google.
I'll admit, I went through and turned of a ton of "not needed" settings, apps, and privacy stuff. That's not just this phone but everyone out there.
First, the battery life is absolutely awesome. I'm an average user and do 2-4 hours of screen time and hard use depending on the day. The first charge lasted me just over 5 days. Brightness is set to basic settings (no adaptive stuff) and about 45%. I find that to be sufficient day and night. I don't believe in fast chargers. I want longevity over anything else especially since I run stuff until they don't work anymore. I slow charge it, it takes forever, but I'm okay with that.
The phone is quite snappy. It takes like 30 seconds to boot from off or reboot in general. There's no stuttering or sluggishness. It can keep up.
I really like the insane amount of customization that can be done with with this phone. Menu's can be hard to find buried settings and things to customize but it's fun seeing what I can and can't change on here.
WiFi is pretty fast. I think it's WiFi 6. Even the cellular data is fast with all the bands it has. I am on ATT and I don't have any connection drops.
Lastly, I gave the camera a 4 out of 5. The specs aren't as good as the new Samsung galaxy and google pixel phones. However, at this price point I will say that it takes some really good quality pictures and videos. I am more than happy with it. I think the average user would be too.
I highly recommend and would buy again.

I picked up the OnePlus 13R because I wanted flagship speed without paying the top-tier price, and this phone absolutely delivers. If you're looking for a beast of a performer, this is the one.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor combined with all that RAM makes everything buttery smooth. Games run flawlessly at high settings, and I can switch between demanding apps instantly. It simply flies—no lag anywhere.
The battery life is incredible. The 6,000mAh battery easily gets me through two days of regular use, and even with heavy gaming, I'm not scrambling for a charger by dinner. Plus, the fast wired charging (80W!) means I top up in under an hour.
The 1.5K ProXDR display is gorgeous and incredibly bright—perfect for outdoor use.
The only honest compromise is the camera. While the main 50MP sensor takes very good photos in decent light, the ultrawide and especially the selfie camera feel less refined than what you get on the more expensive flagship phones.

Overall I love the phone.
At a midrange price point, you get:
Previous model year's top end CPU
High quality 6.7" display
Great cameras (picture quality is subjective)
Great connectivity (at least on T-Mobile)
256GB on onboard storage
12GB RAM
Super fast charging and all day battery
With a midrange phone, there are always compromises. There's no expandable storage slot. There's no wireless charging.
Overall, this was the best midrange phone for my use case.
As a somewhat obscure phone on the US market, there are very few options for screen protectors and phone cases. This is the only thing that prevents me from giving it a full 5 stars.

I recently purchased the OnePlus 13R shortly after arriving in the US, as my old phone wasn’t compatible with the Lyca SIM. The OnePlus 13R has exceeded my expectations in many ways. The display is excellent, offering sharp resolution and a super-smooth refresh rate. The camera takes good-quality photos, though I noticed the images appear slightly enhanced compared to those taken on an iPhone. Battery life is solid, and the ultra-fast charging is outstanding - it went from 0% to 80% in just about 20 minutes. Overall, a great phone with premium performance and features at a reasonable price.
