@@drrider100mine comes in a few hours 😫 the anticipation is killing me especially considering I'm upgrading from a lg v30 from 2017, can't wait to experience the new hardware
Now that S25 Ultra has come out, I feel this phone kills it and will continue to do so. I picked it up this week and trust me it also stacks up well to the 16 pro max..
I got the phone a couple days ago, it's silky smooth, the display is gorgeous, even the UI looks awesome. Only issues I've had with it so far are related to notifications - they seem to manage lock screen notifications really weirdly where by they only show new notifications (which have arrived since locking the phone), and also if you swipe down to expand a banner notification to view more, it opens the app in a floating window instead - both of these are super frustrating but easily fixed by OnePlus if they get their act together. Also I did have an issue with RAM management where it was excessively closing background apps, but turning off RAM expansion fixed this, for some strange reason
Ive watched videos of professional photographers comparing the Samsung, the iPhone, and the OnePlus in a photo test. And it just shows how subjective, or each person's personal preference on photos. Because the OnePlus 13 stacks up or in some cases does even better than the flagship phones. But that's what I love about choices, we can buy what phone is best for our eyes and our personality..
Why do reviewers like u mentionn that stupid 4500 nit peak brightness number to manipulate the audience?? The main thing is HBM which is 1600 (yes u mentioned) only this number should be given importance. Still this number is low, even vanilla iPhone 16 has 2000 HBM nits!
Because 4500 peak nit is good for hdr videos, versus sustained brightness which is better for outdoor viewing. Up to the viewer which is more important to them.
Except for galaxy / note 5, I have owned a flagship samsung phone from between Galaxy 2 to Note 20. I was looking to getting the s25 ultra but it was so disappointing. I just ordered the Oneplus 13 1tb. It looks to beat the S25 in just about every metric except cameras and software updates
I always like your reviews a lot...They are always crisp and clear.. Yes...What you say is absolutely correct...I am also using OnePlus 13...I enjoy it a lot... It's Very Good and I am happy..
First of all, in order to talk about the brightness of the screen, you need to measure it. Everyone understands that it is not 4500 thousand on the whole screen, but maybe one or two pixels, Correct yourself, Besides, Android version updates are for a total of four years, while Samsung has 7. This is critical....And the camera isn't exactly flagship-level. If it were from the 900 series, it would be comparable to a flagship.
so its a phone for a pool boy, yes it has good hardware inside, but when you use you dont feel that you have something premium in your hand but you paid a lot of money, yes less than samsung or apple, but still, and that camera ugh, I tested it on last years model, let me put it this way, its like some mid range xiaomi but a little bit different and has some thoughtful features
The video recording quality is not good. Lot of messy edges. Also the keyboard layout doesn't have numbers on the top row sometimes and sometimes it does. I've used it for a week and returning it. Very inconsistent experience. Also it doesn't have that "premium feeling" to it. Feels very cheap in the hand.
Cus most reviewers, stick to the same lame ass talking points of years past the cameras are freaking amazing now. This is the phone of the year in the West.
All cameras are good. I said it was right up there with the best. Personally, most Android phones can’t seem to get video down, and I shoot a lot of video on my phone, so I just prefer iPhone cameras, but in terms of pictures, it’s great.
@@nycalienyou want to return it because your keyboard glitched?? I use Gboard and I've never had this issue once. Phone feels just as premium as my S24U and Pixel 8 Pro. This is crazy talk.
Hi for me is important Batterie, Display (when good always Edge Display), good speakers and good fotos. Normal, Night, Macro and Zoom. Magic 6 Pro i think too, or my favourit actuall: the OnePlus 13. What did you think? Can i easy by the OnePlus 13 or should i go with the 24 Ultra or maybe the Honor Magic 6 Pro?
Most people prefer this size, however I think someone else mentioned they're making a smaller version of this next quarter. That's news to me but would be a welcome option for many I know.
1. What about auto enable background data every time we restarting phone. No answer with oneplus 2. Why not displaying RAM details in app closing from Home Screen 3. Battery backup not uptomark as compared 6000mah power, ( The 5500mah well optimise in 12Rand better results than ONEPLUS 13)
I recently bought an iPhone 16 pro. Pure trash compared to the Nord ce 4 which I still use as my daily driver. I literally use the iPhone only for camera.

It feels like 2025 is going to be the year of OnePlus. Now that just have to get into US stores so people know about them!
More android users need to know how good OnePlus is!
Mine comes tomorrow!
@@drrider100 Mine arrived yesterday, it was stimated to arrive on 27, but they delivered so fast, It's an awesome phone, you'll enjoy it!

Just ordered mine. Moving from S22U... Samsung is removing the features i loved every generation. Time for a change.

Yes...What you say is absolutely correct...I am also using OnePlus 13...I enjoy it a lot... It's Very Good and I am happy..
It would be perfect if it had Dolby Atmos and you could turn off Google Discover!
Dolby Atmos is a must for me to buy.
How's the video call quality, I have complains of low quality
OnePlus 13 is the best phone 2025

The photos are crushing the big name flagships in blind comparison tests so I disagree
Does it have curved edges?
The screen? Barely
Watching this from my oneplus 12 😢
Still a really great phone a beast
@whatisthis7688 I hope so, I was looking for an exchange, exchange rate was too low 😔
Nah man it's really still a very good phone 📱 ... I recommend you to wait for OnePlus 14 or 15 😶🌫️
@@tonasjones2461 only advantage oneplus 12 have right now is the battery, right?
Wish I had a 12. I'm still using an S21 ultra.

Wtf u talkin abt
Waiting for the OP Open 2
Funny how OnePlus camera never gets the highest praise in reviews but in blind comparations only the Pixel consistently beats it.

Those "honest reviewers" praise S24U... I brought it back to the store after 3 days.

Sind alles gute Handys. Es kommt drauf an, was dir besser zusagt. Software, Formfaktor, usw.
@@gLOWbalxHaha, gleich den deutschen Akzent raus gelesen 😅
@@housecat787 Bei manchen Worten fällt es einem gleich auf 😂
it crushes s24ultra in low light scenarios. Worth all my 900buks
Got a oneplus nord 4 as my backup of my iPhone 16 PRO max
And they still really would be winning if they were still with a carrier in the u.s.😢
Hey man clean the phone before taking the video 😅
I hope the phone is good for this Price ^^ it would be a shame a over 1000.- Phone should be good xD
Nope. Annoyingly big. They should drop the same phone at less than 6,5 inches as well..
Perfect size for me. No need for a smaller size.
It's absolutely perfect in hand, unlike S24U
Most people prefer this size, however I think someone else mentioned they're making a smaller version of this next quarter. That's news to me but would be a welcome option for many I know.
S25 Ultra cant keep up. Its 24s like and biring af
Ngl that brightness is completely unnecessary
🙌🙏🙌🙏
1. What about auto enable background data every time we restarting phone. No answer with oneplus
2. Why not displaying RAM details in app closing from Home Screen
3. Battery backup not uptomark as compared 6000mah power, ( The 5500mah well optimise in 12Rand better results than ONEPLUS 13)
2. Don't worry about it because you have more than you'll ever need. Let it do its job. Not something you should be needing to look at constantly.
3) What?
Gift me this OnePlus 😢 im fed up with mu OnePlus 8 rn
1:40 show us this aqua mode 2.0 , don't just talk about it.
That’s what i was showing the entire time before that lol
😂😂
@@Dan_Barbera 😮
One plus 13 Win s25 ultra
Watching this from my new op 13
Jesus christ u r so clumsy with unlocking the phone
Do not listen to these paid promoters. These phones are terrible. Get a Samsung or an iphone.
Who getting paid? Sure as hell isn’t me lol
I recently bought an iPhone 16 pro. Pure trash compared to the Nord ce 4 which I still use as my daily driver. I literally use the iPhone only for camera.
My wifes OnePlus 9 Pro still rocks today (CoD Mobile on 120FPS) and my OnePlus 13 is AMAZING. Don't know what you're talking about.
I think he is realme user .
Doesn't experienced OnePlus premiumness ha ha 🎉
