OnePlus 13 is expected to be officially unveiled in October, which makes next month one of the busiest of the year when it comes to high-profile smartphone reveals.Although the Chinese handset maker hasn’t yet confirmed when exactly the OnePlus 13 will be announced, we already know quite a few things about the flagship.
That said, we now have another picture showing the front design of the OnePlus 13. The previous sketch that we’ve already reported on only revealed the encased back side, but the new real-life image posted by OnePlus China President Li Jie on Weibo is a direct capture of the phone’s display.
What makes the post on Weibo even more important is the fact that OnePlus’s official said that the company’s next flagship boasts a second-generation “Oriental Screen” panel featuring BOE X2 advanced display technology.
The new BOE X2 technology is supposed to offer better performance than the previous generation. It also promises to provide improved color reproduction, lower power consumption, and even more accurate touch response.

As far as the camera goes, the upcoming OnePlus 13 is said to pack a 50-megapixel Sony IMX808 main sensor with OIS (optical image stabilization), a second 50-megapixel LYW-600 ultra-wide lens, and a third 50-megapixel LYT-600 periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom.
