OnePlus is preparing to capture attention away from Samsung’s significant announcements this year. The firm has set the launch of its newest flagship smartphone, the **OnePlus 13**, for **January 7**—two weeks ahead of the (rumored) release of **Samsung’s Galaxy S25 series**.

The OnePlus 13, which made its debut in China last October, showcases an impressive array of specifications. It sports a **6.82-inch display**, operates on Qualcomm’s advanced **Snapdragon 8 Elite chip**, and is equipped with a **triple 50-megapixel camera system**. The device also includes a substantial **6,000mAh battery**, offers **12GB or 24GB of RAM**, and provides multiple storage options of **256GB, 512GB, or even 1TB**. While minor differences may exist in the international edition, the main focus of the January 7 event is anticipated to be the pricing of the phone.

But there’s more—OnePlus has another surprise in store. In addition to the OnePlus 13, the company will present the **OnePlus 13R**, a more budget-friendly and slightly less robust variant. The OnePlus 13R will utilize the **Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip** and will come preloaded with a range of AI-enhanced features.

Among the notable features of the OnePlus 13R is its **6,000mAh battery**, which is on par with the flagship version. In terms of design, the 13R closely mirrors the OnePlus 13 and will be offered in two color variants: **Nebula Noir** and **Astral Trail**.

Furthermore, OnePlus intends to launch a new color variant for its **OnePlus Buds Pro 3** at the event. The earbuds will now be offered in a stylish **Sapphire Blue** finish.

The launch event is scheduled to commence at **10:30 a.m. ET on January 7**, so don’t forget to mark your calendars and stay tuned for further updates!
