The OnePlus 13s is a solid addition to the brand's lineup, especially for users who prefer a compact phone without sacrificing performance. It delivers a sharp and vibrant display, dependable cameras, a solid battery life, smooth day-to-day performance, a clean software experience, and useful AI features.

Small in size, big on style
+
The USP of the OnePlus 13s is its compact design. The phone measures 150.8 x 71.7 x 8.15 mm and weighs just 185 grams. In comparison, the OnePlus 13 measures 8.9mm in thickness and weighs 210 grams. So, the OnePlus 13s is slimmer and lighter than its flagship sibling. It weighs just as much as the Pixel 9a, another compact smartphone in this segment.

Plus Key: the Alert Slider's smarter successor?
+
A few thoughts on the Plus Key - a new physical button that replaces the iconic Alert Slider. There's no denying that the iPhone's Action Button inspires the Plus Key, and it works similarly: long-press to launch a specific action. You can head to the Plus Key menu in Settings (which also looks similar to the Action Button menu on iPhone) to assign your preferred function, such as saving to Mind Space, switching between silent, vibrate, or ring modes, opening the camera app, starting or ending a recording, translating text, or capturing a screenshot.

A screen you'll love, even in the sun
+
The OnePlus 13s gets a 6.32-inch 2640x1216 (FHD+) 120Hz ProXDR LTPO display. The last part means the refresh rate can dynamically switch between 1-120Hz, ensuring battery life is optimised. The display supports up to 1,600 nits peak brightness, which isn't the highest in this segment. Phones like the Realme GT 7 Pro offer peak brightness of up to 6,500 nits.

Strong main camera, missing versatility
+
Camera is perhaps the only area where the OnePlus 13s felt lacking. While I was quite satisfied with the phone's primary camera during my recent trip to Malaysia, the lack of a wide-angle lens and a fixed 2x telephoto lens makes the camera system less versatile than what the competition offers. The smartphone is equipped with a 50MP Sony LYT-700 primary camera with an f/1.8 aperture and OIS, and a 50MP 2x telephoto lens.

Flagship power in a compact shell
+
With the 3nm Snapdragon 8 Elite powering the device, the OnePlus 13s feels incredibly snappy to use. From scrolling through the UI and popular apps like X, Instagram, WhatsApp, and more, switching between them without any noticeable lag, and using some of the AI features offered by OnePlus, the OnePlus 13s feels effortlessly smooth and responsive. You can get the phone in 256GB and 512GB UFS 4.0 variants, both paired with 12GB LPDDR5X RAM.

Clean OxygenOS meets clever AI tricks
+

Big battery life in a compact body
+
OnePlus hasn't compromised on the battery unit in the OnePlus 13s. The device features a large 5,850mAh battery - an impressive capacity for a phone of this size. It's bigger than other compact phones like the Pixel 9a (5,100mAh) and Galaxy S25 (4,000mAh), and even surpasses some regular-sized phones like the Realme GT 7 Pro (5,800mAh) and Galaxy S25 Ultra (5,000mAh).
