OnePlus 13s official teaser reveals complete design, colours ahead of imminent India launch

OnePlus 13s is gearing up for its India launch via Amazon. The phone is widely expected to be a rebranded version of the OnePlus 13T from China and could slot into the premium midrange segment, likely below the OnePlus 13. The company has already revealed the phone’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, dual rear cameras, some of its colours, and a new physical ‘Plus Key’ button replacing the Alert Slider. However, a fresh teaser video now reveals its complete design and all three colour options for the Indian market.
