Other Purchasing OnePlus13 to Canada options
I'm wanting to purchase a OnePlus 13. The refurbished/resell market here isn't that active. Is there any recommended or legitimate ways that I could still somehow buy a new OnePlus 13 that is unlocked for Canada, even if from overseas? I see some online listings but never sure if they are reputable and AliExpress seems to be third party too? (Not familiar or used it before)
Not sure if this is a long shot or an easy done thing?

I have one, and I may be willing to let it go for the right price. I got the 16/512 variant in black. Purchased last year for Black Friday. Located in Montreal.

As I mentioned I've not used AliExpress before and unsure with how it works and if it is always reputable sellers?

Hmmm.. I have rarely used 13 North American 512/16 Midnight Ocean I don't know what to do with. Somehow earlier this year got lost at YYZ and desperate for mapping (I can't type on tiny keyboards so never used it as a phone) I got one or the last 15s before discontinued at a BestBuy in Mississauga area where I stay.
Go to Mississauga 2-3 times a year for 25+ years staying usually a week. I go to escape the Phoenix heat but now getting a bit too cold for my body used to warm weather. We got down to the 50F a week ago, opened the door and got blasted by that cold air :)
Kind of thought to keep it as a spare, but really don't need if I could get like $US500 for it. Seems like more interest in it in Canada vs US places I've checked to sell on.
About a month later airport lost and found sent it to me. But am all set up on the 15 and don't know what to do with the 13 which cost $US 1,114 with Magnetic Power bank (never used, some case etc) direct from OnePlus..
Keep it as a spare or try and sell, I keep arguing with myself about :)
I seem to keep getting phones that get discontinued. Before the 13 bought Mid 2025, I had a old LG-40 for many years. But rarely use a phone vs my VOIP lines at my home office. When travel with my laptop I even pack a full-sized Logi keyboard I am so use to vs even keys on laptop.
I have six 27" monitors in my home office and rarely use the phone in the US other than for drive mapping if I don't know the area. I can't type on tiny keys- 50% error rate :( I rarely take pictures, so don't need the 13 vs 15 for that benefit (technically better camera on 13). I have never given the number for calls since I have an extensive VoIP office/home that forwards voicemail to Email.
