The tipster also said that the primary camera on the OnePlus 13 will feature a 50-megapixel Sony LYT-808 sensor — the same one that arrived on the OnePlus 12. Both the ultra-wide angle camera and the telephoto camera could also be equipped with 50-megapixel sensors and the latter is said to offer 3x optical zoom. The phone is also tipped to pack a 6,000mAh “super silicon” battery with support for 100W charging, and an IP69 rating for dust and water resistance.
