While the OnePlus 13R may not have all the bells and whistles of a flagship device like the OnePlus 13, it still offers solid performance with its Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset and a capable 50MP telephoto camera. Some compromises include a downgrade in the ultra-wide camera and the absence of features like wireless charging, but for many users, these may not be deal-breakers.
At a price that is $300/€250/₹27,000 less than the OnePlus 13, the 13R presents a compelling value proposition. Whether you prioritize affordability over top-of-the-line features will ultimately determine if this phone is the right choice for you.
