OnePlus 13R Receives GCF Certification; Expected India Launch, Features, and More

The OnePlus 13 was recently launched in China, while global and Indian launches are expected to take place soon. Now, rumours about the OnePlus 13R are buzzing on the internet.

While the existence of the upcoming model is yet to be confirmed, the OnePlus 13R was spotted on the Global Certification Forum (GCF) site, hinting at an imminent launch. Here's what to expect from the OnePlus 13R.

OnePlus 13R Launch Likely Soon

MySmartPrice spotted the OnePlus 13R with the model number CPH2645, revealing the upcoming OnePlus phone will support 2G GSM, 3G WCDMA, 4G LTE FDD, 4G LTE TDD, and 5G. The OnePlus 13R will also have n1, n2, n3, n5, n7, n20, n28, n28, n38, n40, n48, n66, n77, and n78 bands support.

As of now, the specifications of the OnePlus 13R are still unknown. Rumours suggested the smartphone could feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, the same as the OnePlus 13.

If this turns out to be true, for the first time, OnePlus will use the same processor for both number and R series models. To recall, the predecessor OnePlus 12R used the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, while the OnePlus 12 comes with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip.

The upcoming OnePlus 13R is also rumoured to feature a 1.5K display and offer a 50MP Sony IMX906 primary sensor and a 50MP Samsung JN1 telephoto lens for imaging.

OnePlus 13R Launch in India (Expected)

With its GCF certification, the OnePlus 13R is expected to arrive soon in the global market. However, there's no word regarding the India launch. To recall, the brand launched both the OnePlus 12R and the OnePlus 12 earlier this year in the country.

Given that, we expect both the OnePlus 13 and 13R could arrive by the first half of next year in India. Since all are speculations, it's better to take it as a hint and stay tuned for more information.
