OnePlus has released more details of the OnePlus 13 ahead of the launch later this week. The new official teasers cover communication features such as Bluetooth, network signals, NFC, etc.

OnePlus is gearing up for the launch of the OnePlus 13 which is scheduled for October 31 in China. Ahead of the launch, it has been posting details of the phone's features such as the display. More details have now surfaced about the phone, covering features such as connectivity and audio performance.

According to new teasers shared by OnePlus, the OnePlus 13 will come with what it calls 'Super Signal Engineering 2.0' which seems to be an updated version of the OnePlus 12's Smart Link technology. OnePlus says the feature brings enhancements to Bluetooth and network signals.

Like the OnePlus 12 (available on Amazon for $802), the OnePlus 13 will have Bluetooth 5.4. However, OnePlus claims that its new flagship has a Bluetooth range of 400 meters and can cover an area of 100m2, thus allowing users to enjoy a strong connection when streaming audio even when their phone is not nearby.

The improved communication features also extend to connection to cell towers. With a new subway mode, users can expect to see a reduction in lags or buffering when using streaming apps or making video calls during train rides.

In addition, the OnePlus 13 is also confirmed to have 360° communication antennas, multi-function NFC which doesn't require users to tap specific sides of their phone against a payment terminal, and a USB 3.2 Gen 1 port. OnePlus has also revealed the upcoming flagship will have updated stereo speakers, and an AI-assisted 4-mic call noise reduction.

It will also have an infrared blaster for controlling compatible electronics, and users will be able to easily add a device's remote by simply taking a photo of the remote. The phone will automatically recognize the remote from the image and add it to your list of remotes.

In addition to the above, the OnePlus 13 will also launch with an upgraded display, the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, up to 24GB of RAM and 1TB of storage, 100W fast wired charging, 50W fast wireless charging, and an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner.
