Unfortunately the reality is a lot dumber. The embargo got lifted and Michael delayed his by like 15 minutes. You were already thinking about it when he feed fed it to you.
So glad that you are doing this review. It's important you cover regular phones too, your opinion is important even though you might feel that you only want to do foldables.
I definitely only want to do foldables, haha - but I skipped last year's OnePlus and changes over two generations (instead of just one) make it easier to stay interested. Thanks for the feedback!
Even if they're "boring," I usually do prefer slabs over foldables (though I'd also welcome another cheeky curved phone like the LG Flex 2; that felt PERFECT in the pocket and hand.) Yet I trust this channel's expertise over any other tech reviewer, so it is definitely appreciated whatever MrMobile opines upon.
@@chubbyjohnson5480 Foldables can be a thing if the price going down, unfortunately it's not a thing. And another component (display) which is doomed to fail after a period of use doesn't help to justify the price hike.
"You look out to sea in any direction & you see nothing and that prompts you to look inward to make sure you see more than nothing"!! Well that's one of the reason I love Mr Mobile videos as he keeps dropping gems like these & sometimes some wordplays!! Also they are very comprehensive & extremely well narrated as well (I don't think lot of tech-tubers have noticed the special feature he mentioned towards the end)!!
For what it's worth to you! You are SINGLE HANDEDLY the reason I got into reviewing shit. It started as comic books, then it went stagnant. However, I've never stopped, and you are one of the best to have ever done it. Appreciate you. Always happy to watch a video from you! Blessings!
Superb script as usual. It really goes to show how much thought was put into crafting the entire message you're trying to get across in the review, not just vomitting out numbers and soundbites to draw in viewers. This is certainly the USP of your videos! And what a joy to listen to you enunciate every word with your radio voice. Can't wait for the next video coming from you.
I don't understand why this channel doesn't have millions of subscribers. Class and a great narrative thread in all your videos, Michael. Keep up the good work!
Imho it has something to do with the fact at some point people stopped to care about new phones as they got boring. Michael's channel is my favourite when it comes to phone channels but I don't really watch it anymore, as all phones are the same and nothing really has changed since 2019 except minor year to year upgrades and it's been already half of a decade since then.
One of the silliest things all reviewers fall short on is that cases are the absolute norm. I cannot remember the last time I saw someone using a phone without a case. So this begs the question why put the magnets in the phone. I don't see naked iPhones either.. and they are in the phone.
That's actually a very good point. It doesn't really make much sense to have the magnets on the phone itself I mean you're also putting another layer if you have a case on it which most people do have a case
I feel the screen working while wet is a game changer. My country is so humid even the slightest moisture on my iPhone makes it frustrating enough to notice.
This is what I hate most about iPhones, I have a 15 pro and even a single drop on your finger prevents it from working, whereas my cheap and old Realme woks well, one of many reasons why I still don't use my iPhone as my primary phone.
It is this kind of improvements I want in smartphones! It's a giant touchscreen. Make it better. Not complicated lol. Instead they're too busy spamming AI 😂
Hey Michael, I saw you this week at CES 2025, I wanted to say hi and to let you know that I've been following you for more than 10 years, and your videos inspired me to try doing reviews myself. Have a great day man!
Glad to see your review covering a slab phone when i was thinking it might not happen again. thanks Oneplus for arranging such an event in the cruise only to have your phone reviewed by the beloved Michael.
In short: I have OP 12 16/512 and OP 13 hasn't gone far, meaning not a leap, in order to consider the upgrade. OP 12 is simply great, OP 13 is good upgrade if you have money and OP 11 or lower, else 12 is better option all-in-all. Will wait for OP "next" to make an upgrade and hope it will have Elite 2 along with substantial camera modules upgrades. Yes, please make it lighter along with smaller camera bumps. Just my thoughts.
Your reviews are beautifully poetic while still covering most aspects people need to know! As for the cameras... can't believe OnePlus cameras *still* lack behind Samsung, iPhone, and Pixels... even after all these years. They raised prices but still lack in cameras.
One of, if not THE, chillest reviews I've ever seen. Without compromising any quality or detail. What a treat. So the rumors that 1 of the 2 color varieties only has the IP68 rating are wrong then? And did you have an issue with any closeup photography? (like flowers or food... when you *don't* have half a meter to keep the camera at their supposed minimum distance?)
I love your review videos; they are the only ones I trust and have similar opinions. I'm so bored with the regular phones that are basically the same thing, and I also love foldables!
Not gonna lie, Beacon Link sounds exactly like the kind of feature that I’ve been longing for since the days when Nextel was still a thing. A way to contact my family members and make necessary calls without needing access to cellular data? Sounds amazing! …A shame the actual feature is undercooked at launch. ^^’ Alas, this is one feature I hope OnePlus refines in later updates. And more importantly, I hope other manufacturers (or app developers) take notes and make similar features available for other non-OnePlus users.
The more water proofing the better. Took my iPhone 16 PM to an indoor water park & destroyed it with splashes, SPLASHES! I didn't even get into the water like that. S24 Ultra faired well but it took a whole day and a half for it to begin functioning properly again. The speakerphone and earpiece were muffled.
I think 1+ has moved so far away from its starting point that the original fan base is almost completely gone. I have a 12 now in for RMA as the battery life was not anywhere close to what it should've been. And having used said phone since April of last year, one thing these reviewers don't tell you about is how updates more often than not end up causing more issues than improvements. And if you live in a country where you have to deal with 1+ directly for customer service, you may find that it's not a good experience.
As global warming causes deadlier storms 11:40 mesh network calling/texting between phones? Yes please, standardise these between all android and iOS devices. Finding loved ones in a Tornado / cyclone shelter amongst thousands of other people while there is no cell service is important
Which live wallpaper you use on your blue oneplus 13 Then three-four colourful mountains come up from below, which is the live wallpaper please say which is the wallpaper app
I have loved you as a reviewer since your OnePlus 3T days. I really tried all I could to get my other tech friends to watch yoir content as well. I cant wait to see what kind of content you release this year.
You made my day with your "demonic illusion" thing. I laughed hard and for that, you gained one new subscriber. Keep it up. I like your style of review. 😁
I was waiting for a review on this, and you did us justice! Are you planning to review more old phones? I may have a bunch of Virgin Mobile USA handsets lying around
Tbh as a user of the iPhone 16 Pro, I'd MUCH prefer a really good 3x camera over a 5x... the jump from 1 to 5 is just way too big to be useful most of the time. Having a huge 3x sensor that can easily also do 6 or 9x zoom is much more useful than a 5x that can do 10 and 15x.
I got a great idea for a company looking to stand out. Make a small phone (screen no more than 5 inches), with no camera bump, no front facing camera, with a headphone jack, and with a user-swappable battery. Looking forward to seeing a company pick up this radical and never before seen design to really stand out from the market.
while we'd all love a tiny phone again, for what you're asking for, you'd basically have to sacrifice battery life, storage space, camera quality, screen quality, A LOT of processing power, and just about everything that makes your phone well... usable in the modern day. a phone that small would have a weak SoC, a bad camera, a meh quality screen, 32GB of storage max, no selfie camera (im sorry what did a front facing camera do to you?, no IP resistance, and it'll be dead by 1AM and you took it off the charger at 8AM. it's frankly a terrible idea, and you'd buy it, and good for you, but no one else would.
@@auliamate I'm basically asking for an iPhone 13 mini with some design changes lol. The phone I asked for almost exists already, and existed not that long in the past. I think you missed the sarcasm.
@@auliamate tiny does not mean bad quality, bad camera, "weak" SoC, or no water resistance. I mean, the Galaxy S5 does have high quality and camera, a decent SoC and it even has water resistance! a tiny phone just needs a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 or something, or maybe even a 8s Gen 3 (if someone is smart enough)...
Would absolutely LOVE a review from you on the Supernote A5X2 Manta! It's a writing focused eink tablet that is modular and uses ceramic pen nibs that never need to be replaced. I have one on order for college and I believe you would really enjoy it.

This is your best review in a while. Thank you for covering a normal phone!
As always @MrMobile ... such a mature refreshing review that is more than that. Properly and eloquently narrated as we're along the voyage with you on this particular review. Hats off for amending your initial thoughts of camera partnerships after quality has evolved and calling yourself out on it BEFORE others. Again this is a mature review for real people. Cheers and thank.s
Phones are boring. Just buy a phone you like and use it as long as you can. It's not worth spending all that money on a phone that's not really that much better then last years model
Hey how are you Just finished watching your comprehensive review of the OnePlus 13, and I'm seriously blown away by both the device and your meticulous breakdown. 🌟 The inclusion of the Snapdragon 8 Gen Elite processor is a real game-changer-it’s like having a mini supercomputer in your pocket! The integration with Hasselblad for the camera system takes mobile photography to another dimension. Your sample shots truly showcased the camera’s ability to capture vibrant, detailed images even in challenging lighting conditions. The 100W charging speed is another highlight-being able to juice up the battery in such a short time is incredibly convenient for users with hectic schedules. Your step-by-step guide on how the charging technology works was enlightening and will help many understand the benefits. I also appreciated your attention to the enhanced display technology. The higher refresh rate and improved brightness levels you demonstrated will undoubtedly make a difference for gaming and media consumption. And let’s not forget the battery life-longer lasting power without compromising on performance is always a winning feature. Your balanced review, highlighting both the pros and potential cons, sets you apart from many other tech reviewers. It’s this honesty and depth of knowledge that keeps me coming back to your channel for reliable insights. Keep up the fantastic work! Your reviews are always a treat to watch, and I can't wait to see what tech marvel you explore next. Thanks for all you do!"
I wouldn't mind a genuinely waterproof phone. A couple weeks ago I accidentally submerged my Pixel 6 Pro (IP68) in 2 feet of water in a pool for a couple minutes, noticed, removed it from the water and toweled it off, tested it and it seemed to still work fine, and figured the waterproofing did its job and didn't think anything of it. But then over the next day it progressively got worse, first the fingerprint sensor disappeared from Android (with enough time in between the incidents that I didn't connect it with getting wet), then the phone started to boot loop, then finally the screen died with a strange green wash, though it still responded to touch inputs even if I couldn't see anything. Looks like water got in through the SIM cart slot, even though I've only ever swapped SIM cards once with it. Was able to get the screen replaced a week later and the fingerprint scanner still doesn't work (I figure it might require a factory reset) the rest of the phone seems functional. Still, an expensive mistake.
I missed the premiere but it was nice to enjoy the video without distractions, I need to upgrade my phone's (realme 8 5g and LG Wing) so I am looking where can I go and lately this one looks good enough
After switching to a Pixel Fold 1 a week or so ago, I just cannot go back any more. I just think it's the best of both worlds as I can have a phone that's small enough for one handed use, but then fold it out to a big screen and the aspect ratio being square makes it a lot better for actual productivity use. Makes me want a Surface Duo 3 now, Microsoft should bring back Windows Phone and make one as it would be perfect for the ARM tablet version of Windows.
I generally enjoy OnePlus devices (splurged for the McLaren Edition 7 Pro 5G on T-Mobile years ago), but it says quite a bit that the company still can't figure out proper magnetic charging with already existing standards and tech available. It's nice to see that the Hasselblad collab is finally paying off, but I don't see myself picking this one up if the one compelling feature is an undercooked peer-to-peer communication service, even though I would love such a capability on my phone without needing to download a third-party app. As always Michael, your reviews and context are greatly appreciated, and I hope we can cross paths soon.
@@Samsonfs T-Mobile also has its part to play by not forcing the issue and mandating OnePlus establish support networks prior to being selected as a new brand. Maybe they'd still be in the device lineup had they made some semblance of effort to meet customer expectations.
@@HumbertoSaabedra mine was with EE in the UK as one of the first phones on the 5g network, after that OnePlus phones were almost completely dropped from the carrier. Really poor support.
A good filter makes a photo more memorable for me; it makes it stand out in my gallery. Phone cameras are at the point where I don't really want to spend hours pixel peeping and compare different phones, I just want something that will bring memories of that moment. I am glad more and more phones come with 'interesting' filters. Kudos to OnePlus
I genuinely don't think there is a better reviewer. I have been watching your videos since you were at pocketnow and I still can't believe how good you are at your job.
Can attest to the battery - like Boris the Blade, it's apparently impossible to kill it. I've gone out of my way to drain the OP13 and I still end up with a third of the battery left.

I believe foldables are doomed to the same future as curved displays. They'll be seen as yet another gimmick.
@@chubbyjohnson5480 Foldables can be a thing if the price going down, unfortunately it's not a thing. And another component (display) which is doomed to fail after a period of use doesn't help to justify the price hike.

I do see people not using a case occasionally, and with a design as beautiful as this I would be tempted to go caseless as well.
I would use my phone significantly more without a case if the sides were grippy like a Microdot case.
THIS. The only people who don't use cases are rich people who can afford a new phone every five minutes.
They don't care because they can switch phones anytime

Michael - I must say your way of reviewing phones in entirely different and interesting and as always a great review and the video
Most practical and logical review amongst all youtubers. ❤ Simplicity is the key to all your reviews.
Hey Michael, I saw you this week at CES 2025, I wanted to say hi and to let you know that I've been following you for more than 10 years, and your videos inspired me to try doing reviews myself. Have a great day man!

It is now.

Not worth the upgrade. With android 15, my OnePlus 12 is as solid as anything
It's basically the same phone, so hold onto it
Your storytelling ability and your voice is worldclass, always look forward to your reviews.
2:49 boring, but they're not prone to breaking something us regular folks have to worry about 😊

Hey how are you Just finished watching your comprehensive review of the OnePlus 13, and I'm seriously blown away by both the device and your meticulous breakdown. 🌟

Time to upgrade from a 1+ 9 12/256? Best money spent - on a 12, 13R, Nord 4 or 13?
How does the bionic bar not make it into the video after that opening?

But then over the next day it progressively got worse, first the fingerprint sensor disappeared from Android (with enough time in between the incidents that I didn't connect it with getting wet), then the phone started to boot loop, then finally the screen died with a strange green wash, though it still responded to touch inputs even if I couldn't see anything.
Looks like water got in through the SIM cart slot, even though I've only ever swapped SIM cards once with it.
Was able to get the screen replaced a week later and the fingerprint scanner still doesn't work (I figure it might require a factory reset) the rest of the phone seems functional. Still, an expensive mistake.
The opening music was a major throwback
I missed the premiere but it was nice to enjoy the video without distractions, I need to upgrade my phone's (realme 8 5g and LG Wing) so I am looking where can I go and lately this one looks good enough
Love the quality of your vids
After switching to a Pixel Fold 1 a week or so ago, I just cannot go back any more. I just think it's the best of both worlds as I can have a phone that's small enough for one handed use, but then fold it out to a big screen and the aspect ratio being square makes it a lot better for actual productivity use. Makes me want a Surface Duo 3 now, Microsoft should bring back Windows Phone and make one as it would be perfect for the ARM tablet version of Windows.
Looking forward to CES coverage, I know it's gonna be good!
Depending on the range the bt calling would be perfect for cruises calling your parents to find them etc
Michael your review videos are so much better than MKBHD’s. You’re a master at story telling.
There you go being one of the best travel bloggers again.
I generally enjoy OnePlus devices (splurged for the McLaren Edition 7 Pro 5G on T-Mobile years ago), but it says quite a bit that the company still can't figure out proper magnetic charging with already existing standards and tech available. It's nice to see that the Hasselblad collab is finally paying off, but I don't see myself picking this one up if the one compelling feature is an undercooked peer-to-peer communication service, even though I would love such a capability on my phone without needing to download a third-party app. As always Michael, your reviews and context are greatly appreciated, and I hope we can cross paths soon.
Did yours also only get a single software update to android 10 7 months late?
@@Samsonfs Yup, it's sitting in a drawer because of that very reason.
@@HumbertoSaabedra disgraceful that they abandoned those phones. They denied responsibility and provided no support.
@@Samsonfs T-Mobile also has its part to play by not forcing the issue and mandating OnePlus establish support networks prior to being selected as a new brand. Maybe they'd still be in the device lineup had they made some semblance of effort to meet customer expectations.
@@HumbertoSaabedra mine was with EE in the UK as one of the first phones on the 5g network, after that OnePlus phones were almost completely dropped from the carrier. Really poor support.
Travel vlogs or not MrMobile reviews always feel like a stroll through the experiences of human marvels.
Does this have an call recording option already built in to the call settings?
Wait did symphony leave NYC and when did allure get the retro fit for NYC
You've been outside android authority fir 9 years? time flies, you've grown older, and i've grown older too
thanks for the years of good advice
Quite an amazing turnaround by OP since those snappable phones......
Love it! I'll be living on Allure this summer, looking forward to it 🛳️
How does rhe beacon link work? I though Bluetooth was only for short distance? Is this something to do with satellite calling?
A good filter makes a photo more memorable for me; it makes it stand out in my gallery. Phone cameras are at the point where I don't really want to spend hours pixel peeping and compare different phones, I just want something that will bring memories of that moment. I am glad more and more phones come with 'interesting' filters. Kudos to OnePlus
Great production, fantastic phone. 1000 euro, not for me. Keep up the great work. Greetings from Dundalk, Ireland.
I genuinely don't think there is a better reviewer. I have been watching your videos since you were at pocketnow and I still can't believe how good you are at your job.
Ha, it's nice to see Marcel Campos again in that keynote.
Cool wallpaper. Where can I get it?
Can attest to the battery - like Boris the Blade, it's apparently impossible to kill it. I've gone out of my way to drain the OP13 and I still end up with a third of the battery left.
