The OnePlus 13T is just around the corner with a launch expected in China by the end of April 2025. And ahead of the big reveal, we’re getting a closer look at the phone’s refreshed design, colour options and more.

OnePlus 13T Appears In Leaked Video

A leaked video featuring OnePlus 13T has surfaced online and revealed the redesigned back of the OnePlus 13T, which lines up with earlier concept renders. Instead of OnePlus’s usual circular camera island, the phone now features a squircle-shaped camera module.

It houses a triple-camera setup, expected to include a 50MP main sensor, a 50MP 2x telephoto lens, and likely an ultrawide camera, though full sensor details haven’t been confirmed yet.

Along with the new shape, the phone adopts flat sides, giving it a more squared-off and modern look. It’s clear OnePlus is going for a fresh aesthetic with this compact flagship.

The video also gave us a glimpse of the good weight distribution of the phone that OnePlus has managed to achieve. OnePlus China President Louis Lee also teased the phone’s perfect 50:50 weight distribution in a Weibo post.

He even demonstrated it by balancing the 185g phone packed with a 6,000mAh+ battery on a pen, highlighting how comfortable it should feel in the hand.

Another interesting feature teased by Lee is a new “game camera” shortcut, possibly tied to the rumoured Action Button replacing OnePlus’s usual alert slider. This feature would let users take live screenshots during gameplay, and it’s said to work across all mobile games.

The tipster also mentions two more colour options, including Morning Mist Gray and Heartbeat Pink with the latter briefly spotted in an earlier video leak.

OnePlus 13T – What Else To Expect?

As for specs, the OnePlus 13T will reportedly come with a 6.3-inch flat display offering 1.5K resolution. That puts it in the more compact flagship category, great for those who prefer smaller phones. Powering everything is the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, the same one found in the OnePlus 13. It’ll also support 80W fast charging, helping quickly top up that large 6,000mAh+ battery.

As of now, the OnePlus 13T is confirmed for China only with no word yet on an international launch.
