OnePlus is set to be one of the first brands to introduce a smartphone powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. The president of the company, Louis Li Jie, has previously suggested that the new flagship device will feature magnetic wireless charging. While the exact release date for the OnePlus 13 is still unknown, the brand has already rolled out details about its magnetic wireless charger.
Innovative Charger Design
The magnetic charger, named "Magnetic Turbine," comes with a unique design. From the official image released, it appears that the charger includes a built-in fan. According to Louis Li Jie, this design is intended to tackle the heat challenges that arise with fast wireless charging, making sure that the OnePlus 13 remains comfy to hold during the charging process.
Compatibility with Other Devices
Oppo has a similar magnetic wireless charging option available for its Find X8 series. Additionally, Oppo has confirmed that their upcoming magnetic accessories will work with iPhones, suggesting that third-party MagSafe accessories might also be usable with the OnePlus 13.
Charging Capabilities and Specs
Louis Li Jie has also stated that the magnetic wireless charger can reach a maximum output of 50W. The OnePlus 13 is said to support AirVOOC 50W wireless charging, meaning it should effectively utilize this charger.
The OnePlus 13 is expected to come with features such as a 6,000 mAh battery, an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, and support for 100W wired charging (the 145W Ugreen Nexode power bank is currently priced at $84.20 on Amazon). Recently, the company teased the device's rear, confirming a triple-camera arrangement and a slightly revamped back design.
Louis Li Jie shared these insights on Weibo, with the information translated from Chinese.
