Hi there!
I’m looking for people’s experiences using a OnePlus 13 or 13R. I’m particularly interested in how it compares to recent Samsung devices, because I think Samsung One UI currently offers the best UX on Android. To a lesser degree, I’m also interested in how it compares to an iPhone.
I’m not interested in games performance. I care about reliability first and foremost, then about battery life. Camera performance and smoothness come later.
If you’ve used a OnePlus 13/13R and a recent Samsung or iPhone, please leave me your comments. I’m interested to know your experience, no matter which of these phones you prefer at the end of the day.
Thanks a lot!
I moved from a Samsung Galaxy S20+ to OnePlus 13. I grew frustrated with the short battery life: I had it changed by Samsung about a year prior and it was draining very fast.
I’ve had the OnePlus 13 for three months and for the moment I’m very pleased with it, especially the battery life: two days on average, with 30-35% remaining at the end of the second day. I must mention that I’m a moderate user: doing the usual Whatsapp, some lemmy and mastodon browsing, email, listening to music on Tidal, but not much youtube/video playing. Also, photos are great, maybe a bit more toward warm colors than I’d like, but I got used to it.
Thanks for your comments!
Have you experienced any bugs or reliability issues with the OnePlus phone? This is my biggest concern with it compared to Samsung.
Not yet. Works without issues. And I already got two system updates - mainly security patches. I’m waiting patiently for Android 16.
