Verdict
The OnePlus 13R is a solid successor to the OnePlus 12R, offering some notable upgrades. While the flat screen and frame design might be a polarising choice, the hardware remains top-notch, featuring a powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, a large 6,000mAh battery, and a 50MP telephoto camera, among other highlights. Without significantly increasing the price, OnePlus has delivered a well-rounded flagship in the OnePlus 13R, appealing to both gamers and casual photographers.
Pros
- Excellent performance for gaming and regular usage
- Stunning display with Dolby Vision support
- Useful telephoto camera for portraits
- Reliable battery life for gaming and streaming
Cons
- Design might not appeal to all
- Charges slower than the OnePlus 12R
- Average selfie and ultrawide cameras
Design and display
+
The OnePlus 13R looks completely different from the OnePlus 12R, as it has undergone a significant redesign. Firstly, OnePlus has replaced the curved front and back with a flat design. The aluminium frame is also flat. When I asked OnePlus about their choice of a flat design, they explained that gamers in this price segment prefer a flat display for a better gaming experience. As a result, the OnePlus 13R seems to be designed with gamers in mind.

Everything about the OnePlus 12R impressed me last year, except for the cameras. Thankfully, this is one area where OnePlus has worked on for the OnePlus 13R. In addition to a 50MP Sony LYT-700 primary sensor, the OnePlus 13R gets a 50MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom, an upgrade over the 2MP macro lens on the OnePlus 12R. The new telephoto lens allows you to capture some good-looking portraits at 2x zoom, and you don't really miss the lack of a barely useful 2MP macro camera.

Performance and software

The OnePlus 13R uses the same chipset that powered the OnePlus 2024 flagship, the OnePlus 12. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 delivers superb performance and is also well-optimised now that it is a year old. Paired with up to 16GB LPDDR5X RAM, the OnePlus 13R is easily one of the most powerful phones under Rs 50,000 right now. In our dedicated performance review, the OnePlus 13R outscored the Realme GT 6 and Vivo V40 Pro in synthetic benchmarks like AnTuTu and Geekbench. It also did impressively in our performance throttling test, dropping down to around 67 percent while rivals would throttle down to under 50 percent.

Battery and charging

OnePlus has upgraded the battery in the OnePlus 13R by fitting a 6,000mAh single-cell battery, which is 500mAh larger than the one in the OnePlus 12R. In my dedicated battery review, the OnePlus 13R delivered impressive backup in both gaming and video streaming tests, outperforming the likes of the Realme GT 6, Vivo V40 Pro, and Xiaomi 14 Civi. Indeed, the OnePlus 13R provides reliable full-day battery life under normal to heavy usage. However, I feel that the OnePlus 12R offered slightly better battery backup than the OnePlus 13R, despite having a smaller battery.
