OnePlus is preparing for the launch of the OnePlus 13 in China, set for October 31. Following this, the OP13 is expected to hit the global market by January 2025. Recent information from 91mobiles Indonesia suggests that the company might also introduce the OnePlus 13R, which will be a budget-friendly flagship aimed at performance enthusiasts, alongside the more high-end OnePlus 13.
SIRIM Certification for OnePlus 13R
The OnePlus 13R has been spotted in the SIRIM certification database in Malaysia. Although the listing does not disclose any details about the device's specifications, it does confirm the model number, which is CPH2645.
The OnePlus 13R will follow the OnePlus 12R, which was powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. Notably, the 12R was essentially a rebranded OnePlus Ace 2, which was launched exclusively in China. Thus, there is a strong possibility that the OnePlus 13R will be a rebranded version of the upcoming OnePlus Ace 3, expected to debut in China in December 2024.
Expected Features of OnePlus Ace 3
Reports indicate that the OnePlus Ace 3 will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and is likely to feature a robust 6,500mAh battery with support for 100W fast charging. As a device focused on performance, it might not come with high-end camera capabilities. However, recent leaks suggest it could boast a 50-megapixel primary camera from the Sony IMX9 series, featuring a sizable sensor of 1/1.56 inches. There’s also a chance it will have a 50-megapixel telephoto camera.
When it comes to the display, the OnePlus Ace 3 is anticipated to include an OLED panel sourced from BOE, supporting a resolution of 1.5K. In China, the device will operate on ColorOS 15 based on Android 15, while the global variant is expected to run on OxygenOS 15.
