This was all revealed by the company in a couple of Weibo posts, one of which also revealed that the 13T will support bypass charging. This lets the phone draw power directly from the charger instead of routing it through the battery, which is especially useful during gaming or long video sessions when heat can be an issue. Bypass charging has been appearing more often in gaming phones, so its presence here could appeal to power users who want more control over heat and performance.

The OnePlus 13T is shaping up to be an excellent option for anyone looking for a compact yet premium smartphone. With its 6.32-inch screen, lightweight design, and impressive internals, it stands out as a rare blend of portability and power. In a market where most high-end phones are edging past the 6.7-inch mark and tipping the scales well over 200g, the 13T feels like a deliberate move to cater to users who want flagship-grade hardware without the bulk.
- 6,260 mAh battery
- Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset
- 6.32-inch display
- IP65 water and dust resistance
- Two 50MP rear cameras: main and telephoto
- 2x optical zoom, 4x lossless zoom
- Bypass charging support
- Weight: 185g
If the OnePlus 13T follows in the footsteps of the 13R, which earned praise for its thermal management and battery endurance, then this phone could be one of the most well-balanced devices in its category. It looks like OnePlus is aiming to hit that sweet spot between flagship power and everyday comfort, and it might just pull it off.
