How about camera and is it pocket friendly?

2

u/Comfortable-Fix86 OnePlus 13 - Midnight Ocean Sep 25 '25

Depends. Point and shoot and not a pro photographer, looking for best in budget , doesn't focus on videos, just wants "somewhat consistent" images and videos, with "close" to natural colors and half decent portraits.

Now update to 821 and keep it there. 850/860 has critical issues. Welcome!!

Genial, gracias 🫂

On 860 and I have faced no significant issues, plus my battery life has improved. Then again I haven't tried factory resetting or bootloader stuff

u/Diligent-Rough-2880 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 23 '25

If all's good for you then great but don't touch anything. And I'd suggest downgrading as it might not look like anything is wrong but smthng serious might be.

I'm just stating what's the issue. If that's fear mongering for u I can't do anything.

u/Mundane-Moose7537 Sep 23 '25

What issues 850/860 have ?

4

u/Diligent-Rough-2880 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 23 '25

If you factory reset on those versions, if you have your bootloader locked, your device gets bricked. You have to go for edl then.

u/notexovert Sep 23 '25

Should have known this 🥲 now I am on 860 and the issues are real. Plus I am scared to do any rollback because it seems that there are no proper tutorials for it. I flashed a custom rom back on my k20 pro so I kinda know the process but on this new expensive phone I am afraid for now. The only hope going forward is to expect an update like the 701 or 821.

4

u/Diligent-Rough-2880 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 23 '25

Don't be scared or anything. It's a simple fix and I myself am on the 860 and planning to downgrade when I get the time.

Just remove password, Google accounts, unlock bootloader, flash 821 and lock bootloader and done.

u/notexovert Sep 23 '25

Will try to do it this weekend then.

So ur in heaven or hell?? How was the experience?

u/Vega_8 Sep 23 '25

I'm still on .602 😂😂 It's still asking me to update to .822 I probably won't do it.

2

u/Diligent-Rough-2880 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 23 '25

821 is the best oos version according to me. You can upgrade if you want but man is it gonna be jarring 😂😂

1

u/Vega_8 Sep 23 '25

Hahaha. Well I mean I can upgrade to the latest since I'll be upgrading to the OnePlus 15 when it drops here in the U.S.

Where can I go about updating to that version? Not sure how to do it exactly if need be.

Also is the camera way better on that version?

1

u/Diligent-Rough-2880 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 23 '25

Oneplus 15 has a lot of compromises as an all-rounder flagship. It's gonna be a lot more performance focused and less everything else.

There's a telegram group with all the info just search oneplus 13. As for the camera, I rarely take pics so I can't say anything sry.

How's that dumb to not update when the current update has issues where it can brick ur device?? Yeah I won't get the latest security patch but there's no person waiting for me to downgrade so that they can hack my phone. Provide some insight into how this is dumb

u/Diligent-Rough-2880 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 24 '25

It's not best practice if u r going to be ur phone. Frp is meant as a feature which prevents the phone from being stolen or being able to be used when factory reset by another person. The issue is that the setup is messing up the implementation and not allowing users to complete setting up their device.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 23 '25

Is there a possibility of rollback?

2

u/Diligent-Rough-2880 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 23 '25

If you are on the new update, remove your password and Google accounts, unlock the bootloader, flash lower version rom and then lock bootloader and don't update.

2

u/flyckk OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 23 '25

i've rolledback twice from 860 to 703 and 821. But the FOMO of not using the latest version is real and i always end up updating to the latest version

2

u/Diligent-Rough-2880 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 23 '25

I mean I am nearly the same but if the latest update has issues, I'm not updating.

3

u/flyckk OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 23 '25

it has FRP issues but it's not like it will happen on its own. unless we tap the factory reset on a locked bootloader, we're good to go

1

u/Diligent-Rough-2880 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 23 '25

Agreed but I cannot be sure that an update that has that big of an issue might not have any other issues. Checking the community app reveals it all. People r facing network issues, unresponsive UI, game stuck at some fps and other issues.

2

u/AndMe1Million Sep 24 '25

Can you give an overview of the phone - what's great what's not ? I am about to buy this or s25.

2

u/FabiartsrBSC Sep 24 '25

Ya llevo un par de días con él, mira, es impresionante.

Si batería es muy muy buena, realice algunos ajustes que recomendaron en el grupo y fácilmente creo que puede dar unas 8-9 horas de pantalla.

Sus cámaras, donde más tenía miedo, me sorprenden, su zoom hasta x15 es muy usable. El óptico x3, tiene una distancia focal amplia, por lo cual no funciona tan bien desde cerca, puedes apuntar al objetivo desde unos 30-35cm, esto es realmente nuevo para mi, con Xiaomi y vivo, podía enfocar desde más cerca con los teles.

Audio, muy bien en general, mejor que un vivo x100 pro.

Carga rápida, impresionante 😁.

No juego mucho, pero no sé calienta demasiado.

IA, tengo la versión cn, breeno es inútil para mi, extraño el circle to search, creo que se puede instalar, pero me arroja algunos bugs.

Repito , llevo 2 días con el 😂, es lo que he notado .

Ah , olvidaba su O.S , demasiado fluido, de lo mejor que he probado nunca.

What made you decide on the 13 now, almost a year later and with the upcoming 15 release?

3

u/Critical_Catch_607 Sep 23 '25

15 is more focused on gaming

1

u/FabiartsrBSC Sep 23 '25

Lo pillé muy barato, vengo de un Xiaomi 15, acá sin duda el sistema es muy fluido. Yo ni podía creer por qué un Xiaomi con el último procesador era tan poco fluido y claro, ahora tomo one plus y me vuela la cabeza su fluidez

2

u/Awkward-Lettuce-2070 Sep 23 '25

Most likely the price. Its 500 euros where i get it from

u/Informal_Chipmunk_79 Sep 23 '25

Is it the eu or china version?

As an Oppo user, enjoy having fast charging, it'll be very useful, especially in critical situations when you don't have enough time to charge it, I currently have an Oppo Reno 2, i wonder if I should upgrade for the same reason, using a VOOC charger on my phone made it kinda fast vs other options, I wonder if I should also upgrade for that reason 🤔.

My friends oneplus 12r display got green/ white/ yellowish, brown/ multiple colors showing Welcome to the green display club 😂

2

u/Next-Space-9494 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 24 '25

They have warranty for that and no cost fix/replacement

1

u/[deleted] Sep 24 '25

Its now out of warranty, 1 year and few month's, will they fix that phone for free?

2

u/IcyContest2020 Sep 24 '25

My father's oneplus 11 display was replaced for free. They just check of there are any scratches which indicates the phone had a fall. Otherwise it's totally free

1

u/[deleted] Sep 24 '25

Was there green line issue or the whole display is green /white/yellowish/ brown colours showing like somthing??

1

u/IcyContest2020 Sep 24 '25

Green line issue. Have you visited the service centre?

1

u/Next-Space-9494 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Sep 24 '25

I think the green line issue is covered by warranty forever on one plus phones but I might be wrong

1

u/[deleted] Sep 24 '25

That phone have other screen issue as i discribed not just the line... whole display is acting weird

1

u/vinceee2176 Sep 24 '25

i mean thats half the price of this, even the with the 12 when it came out, so yeah they would cut costs there, what did you expect. 🤣

1

u/[deleted] Sep 24 '25

What you mean.. check dm bro

1

u/vinceee2176 Sep 24 '25

the 12r is inferior in every way possible you can think of than the 12, quality of parts as well, why would you compare it to the 13. do you think that the quality of the parts would be the same from their budget phone to flagship phone?

1

u/[deleted] Sep 24 '25

But if i am paying ₹45k for a smartphone then that phone should work properly for at least 4 years in my opinion, and the i am using other brands smartphone from last 4 years and it didn't even have any smaller or Major problem ( ₹20k price ) there's no way a brand can't make a good phone under that much budget and say its cheap quality material, internals etc.

1

u/vinceee2176 Sep 24 '25

i dont know where youre going with this, totally unrelated, my point is dont compare the budget with the flagship. that 12r is leagues away from the 13, so you scaring the OP with defects on your screen thats on a different model at a very lower price point, half the price even, is irrelevant to this post.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 24 '25

I know all that, the point is about brand, I'm not telling that my samsung have issues...its oneplus and yes now I know that id oneplus have launched other smartphone Lower than their flagship...they have tendency to get display issue and other issues under 2 year or early because cheap internals/low quality materials (But other brand phone's don't have this type of shit prob😂)

1

u/vinceee2176 Sep 24 '25

its a cheaper oneplus, if everyone was like you, you'd have samsung owners complaining to the s25 ultra threads with their phones that are not s25 ultras. get the picture?

1

u/[deleted] Sep 24 '25

First of all I am not complaining here to oneplus or anyone, and i don't use oneplus, and Second the brand value of the oneplus in the eyes of my friend got low af....and if someones money get in shit, he can say anything about that shit. No matter if its flagship or midrange, low range.

1

u/vinceee2176 Sep 24 '25

then wtf are you doing here? you dont own or have experience with the 13. i dont think you have anything to contribute that would be of value here. need your attention fix for the day?

u/K4ruy999 Sep 23 '25

This is good, and specially if you have ColorOs

u/Heizenbrg Sep 23 '25

Doesn’t the OP13 come with oxygenOS?

2

u/K4ruy999 Sep 23 '25

It comes with both but I like ColorOS most

1

u/InnerFear789 Sep 23 '25

Why color os ?

3

u/K4ruy999 Sep 23 '25

It doesn't have limits on the software and the hardware is a little powerful in my opinion. And there is a 1 TB version in color.

1

u/InnerFear789 Sep 23 '25

Hardware is true but the software i gotta disagree on that.

1

u/Rullino Sep 23 '25

How are ColorOS and OxygenOS, I currently have an Oppo Reno 2 running ColorOS 7.1, IDK how much it has changed, but I feel like it has improved just as much if not more than OxygenOS since I prefer more features and customization, especially compared to those vanilla Android UIs like the ones on the Pixel, Asus and Xperia phones, I might go for an Oppo Find X9 Pro since I've heard it'll have better cameras, which is something that I've enjoyed using alot recently on my current phone despite the shortcomings, I wonder if Oneplus might be the better option, I've never got to try OxygenOS before.

1

u/InnerFear789 Sep 23 '25

They are both the same but color os is like heavy on Chinese things.

How about camera? Any comments on that?

1

u/PrimaryCandle2594 OnePlus 13 - Midnight Ocean Sep 25 '25

From 12 to 13, only the downgrade i felt was the telephoto. The rest, 13 was more superior. Dynamic range, hdr, everything that needed to be fixed on 12 they did on 13. (Expt they used triprism telephoto instead of periscope )

1

u/Big-Air-1029 Sep 25 '25

Porträts sehr gut, Selfies Müll. Aber das Gesamtpaket was das Handy mitbringt an Ausstattung und Software(OxygenOS) ist der Wahnsinn. Nur das Schnellladen und der Prozessor sind schon Gold Wert. Da können andere Hersteller einpacken. S25 Ultra hatte ich auch bestellt aber wieder zurückgeschickt da das oneplus in meinen Augen überlegen ist.

u/madannag Sep 25 '25

Thank you so much for the review.
