OnePlus 13T poses for the camera in pastel pink

The last time OnePlus announced a T-series smartphone was in 2022 when it launched the OnePlus 10T. Now, it is bringing back the series with the upcoming launch of the OnePlus 13T, a small-sized flagship smartphone. There have already been several leaks as well as officially-confirmed details of the smartphone, and that is expected to continue right up until its unveiling.

Ahead of its debut, OnePlus has shared an image of the OnePlus 13T showing off one of the colors it will be available in, and what makes it special is that it is the first OnePlus smartphone that will launch in such color. An earlier report had revealed that the OnePlus 13T will be announced in three color options, with one of them being a special hue.

Now, a photo showing the OnePlus 13T in a pastel-like pink hue  has been posted online. The photo shows the OnePlus 13T next to an iPhone 16 in pink too, although the iPhone has a much darker shade of pink.

According to the head of OnePlus China, Louis Lee, who shared the photo, they learnt during their internal selection process that in addition to women, many men also fancy the color. Lee also revealed that the new pink color will be the first OnePlus phone with a velvet glass finish (machine translated), which he describes as having a wonderful feel in hand.

The OnePlus 13T doesn't have a launch date yet but so far it has been confirmed that it will have a 6.3-inch flat display, a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, a battery capacity of at least 6000mAh, and support for 80W fast wired charging. It will also be the first OnePlus flagship to launch with a new customizable button that replaces the Alert Slider.
