OnePlus 13s to launch soon in India: Price, camera, design and everything else that we know so far

OnePlus 13s

OnePlus is set to introduce its next compact flagship, the OnePlus 13s, in India on June 5 at 12 PM IST. Several leaks and rumours have already revealed details about the upcoming flagship phone from the company. In fact, the company has also dropped several details about the OnePlus 13s. Ahead of the official unveiling, pricing details have reportedly surfaced too. Here's everything we know so far.

The OnePlus 13s is expected to slot between the existing OnePlus 13R and the more premium OnePlus 13, which are priced at Rs 42,999 and Rs 69,999, respectively. According to industry estimates and past pricing strategies, OnePlus may position the 13s closer to Rs 55,000, making it a mid-point option for those seeking flagship-grade features without the higher price tag of the 13.

OnePlus will launch the 13s in three colours: Black Velvet, Pink Satin, and a new India-exclusive Green Silk variant. The Green and Pink versions will feature the brand’s new Velvet Glass finish for a soft-touch texture. The phone is designed to be slim and lightweight, measuring 8.15mm thick and weighing 185 grams, with curved 2.5D glass panels on both sides for better ergonomics.

A notable change in this model is the replacement of the traditional Alert Slider with a new Plus Key. This customisable button can be set to perform functions such as switching between sound modes, launching specific tools, or enabling AI features.

The OnePlus 13s will run on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, paired with enhanced thermal management. It includes a large vapor chamber and a unique cooling layer built into the back panel to control heat during prolonged use.

The smartphone is expected to feature a dual rear camera setup, both sensors offering 50MP resolution, along with a 16MP front camera. With flagship-grade internals and new design enhancements, the OnePlus 13s is shaping up to be a premium compact device.

The official price will be confirmed during the launch event on June 5.
