Leaker Arsène Lupin (via Android Authority) has revealed the exact configurations of the OnePlus 13 and its more affordable sibling, the OnePlus 13R, that’ll be available in the global markets. According to the leak, the base OnePlus 13 will feature 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage and will only be available in the Black Eclipse colorway — similar to the currently available OnePlus 12, which also restricts its base variant to black.
In addition to the 12GB/256GB option, the OnePlus 13 will also offer a higher-end variant with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, available in three colors: Midnight Ocean (blue), Black Eclipse (black), and Arctic Dawn (white). Notably, the white color option will be available at launch this time, unlike the OnePlus 12, which introduced it months later.
Interestingly, OnePlus has dropped the green colorway this year for a new blue tint. While OnePlus offers a 1TB storage variant of the OnePlus 13 in its home market of China, this model is unlikely to be available in global markets, according to the leaker.
The base OnePlus 13 will likely come in just one color
The leak not only reveals the color options for the OnePlus 13 but also provides details about its affordable counterpart, the OnePlus 13R. The OnePlus 13R will reportedly come in a single 12/256GB configuration and will be available in two colorways: Nebula Noir and Astral Trail. Interestingly, the OnePlus 13R has yet to debut even in its home market of China, but is expected to be introduced alongside the OnePlus 13 during its global launch.
Details about the global launch date of the OnePlus 13 remain unclear, but based on past patterns, it’s likely to happen in early 2025. OnePlus appears to be gearing up for the global release, recently introducing a significant camera upgrade for the device. We’ll keep you updated with official announcements as more information becomes available.
OnePlus 13
The OnePlus 13 is official — in China, that is. After weeks of rumors, we finally know what’s coming for the next flagship for OnePlus. With a fresh design, a (mostly) curveless display, and a massive 6,000mAh battery, this could be the Snapdragon 8 Elite-powered smartphone to beat once it touches down in North America in the coming months.
