The OnePlus 13 will include three 50MP cameras based on a new rumor that surfaced online. This information comes from a well-known tipster, Digital Chat Station. He’s usually spot on, so we have no reason to doubt this info.
The OnePlus 13 will get a camera boost, and include three 50MP cameras on the back
The tipster said that the phone will feature an improved periscope telephoto camera. It will have a 50-megapixel unit, and 3x optical zoom. That camera will also come with Hasselblad boost.
As a reminder, the OnePlus 12 includes a 64-megapixel periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. That’s not the only camera that will see a change, however. The ultrawide unit will also be a 50-megapixel unit, instead of a 48-megapixel camera.
We’re still not sure what sensors will OnePlus use, as that’s a rather important detail. The main camera will stay a 50-megapixel unit, but OnePlus could end up using a different sensor. That detail is still under wraps.
OnePlus could end up using the Sony LYT-900 camera sensor
The OnePlus 12 uses Sony’s LYT-808 sensor for the main camera. That sensor is compelling, but it’s not as good as the Sony LYT-900 used by the OPPO Find X7 Ultra. Will the OnePlus 13 get a boost in that regard and use the LYT-900? It’s a possibility.
The device will be fueled by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4. That’s a given. It will actually become one of the first smartphones to use that chip. The OnePlus 13 is expected to become official in November, at least in China.
The phone is also rumored to include a redesign, with a different camera island on the back. A 6,000mAh battery will allegedly also be included. The phone could lose wireless charging, though, unfortunately. It remains to be seen, but that’s what’s rumored at the moment.
