Introduction to OnePlus 13R Specs
With the global unveiling of the OnePlus 13R just around the corner on January 7th, speculation is rife about what this new smartphone will bring to the table. After the confusing similarities between the OnePlus 12R and the OnePlus Ace 3, many assumed that the 13R would simply be a rebranding of the Ace 5. But a recent leak has thrown a wrench in that assumption, suggesting that we may be in for a surprise!
What to Expect: The Camera Difference
First and foremost, let’s talk about the cameras. OnePlus has confirmed that both the Ace 5 and the 13R will feature a 50 MP main camera, leveraging Sony’s Lytia LYT-700 image sensor, along with an 8 MP ultra-wide camera. But fear not, the 16 MP front-facing cameras are also identical across both models. So while some components may be shared, you can rest assured that the OnePlus 13R will not be simply a carbon copy of the Ace 5.
The Battery and the Unlucky Number Four
Battery life is always a critical consideration for any smartphone enthusiast. Here, OnePlus has decided to equip the 13R with a 6000mAh battery, which is notably lower than the Ace 5’s impressive 6400mAh battery. And for those curious about the mysterious absence of a OnePlus Ace 4, it turns out that the number is shunned in China due to tetraphobia—the fear of the number four being closely associated with death. So, forget the 4, and embrace the 5!
As we await the official launch, one thing is clear: the OnePlus 13R is shaping up to be an interesting blend of features, promising a unique experience that may not mirror the Ace 5 after all. Stay tuned for more updates!
