Only three months after the OnePlus 13 was released in the US, OnePlus is showcasing its next highly anticipated flagship phone, the OnePlus 13T.
OnePlus recently shared a teaser video of the OnePlus 13T on the Chinese social media platform Weibo, revealing the phone’s complete design (via Android Headlines). And yes, it somewhat resembles an iPhone 16, featuring two rear cameras, a flat display, and rounded corners. OnePlus is set to launch the phone on April 24, but only in China. There is currently no word on a US release.
Hopefully, OnePlus will replicate its approach with the OnePlus 13 and launch the phone a couple of months later in the US. The phone will be available in three color options: gray, pink, and black. You can watch the teaser video OnePlus shared for the OnePlus 13T below.

What is the OnePlus 13T?
A compact version of the OnePlus 13
If you’re unfamiliar with the OnePlus 13T, it’s essentially a smaller version of the OnePlus 13, minus one camera. The OnePlus 13T boasts a 6.32-inch screen, significantly smaller than the OnePlus 13’s 6.82-inch display. OnePlus has teased that the 13T will feature a battery of at least 6,000mAh, which is impressive given the phone’s compact form factor. Additionally, the OnePlus 13T bids farewell to the alert slider, replacing it with a customizable button, akin to the Action Button found on the iPhone 16 series.
Officially, that’s all we know about the phone. However, leaks provide a clearer picture of what to expect when OnePlus fully reveals the device on April 24. The OnePlus 13T is suggested to have a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and dual 50-megapixel rear cameras — one as the primary camera and the other as a telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom. The front camera is rumored to be a 32-megapixel lens.
In comparison to the mid-range OnePlus 13R, the OnePlus 13T aims to be a compact flagship phone that does not compromise on power. The pricing of the phone remains uncertain. For reference, the OnePlus 13 starts at $900, while the OnePlus 13R begins at $600, indicating that the OnePlus 13T will likely fall somewhere in between. The OnePlus 13T is set to launch in China on April 24. Its US release has not yet been confirmed, so for now, we can only hope that OnePlus decides to launch it globally.
