The “mini” device OnePlus is currently working on will be called 13T, and it’s coming soon. Yesterday, the company teased it in an April Fools video, confirming its name.
Today, step two: battery capacity. A recent rumor talked about the device sporting a 6,200 mAh battery, and now Li Jie, President of OnePlus China, has officially announced that the 13T’s battery capacity starts with a 6.

Even if that’s the absolute minimum it can be – 6,000 mAh – it would match the battery in the OnePlus 13 which is a much larger device. So the 13T’s longevity should be better than what its sibling can produce. In fact, OnePlus says it will be the smaller-screen phone with the largest battery capacity and “best battery life ever”. Bold claims indeed.
Furthermore, Li also announced that the 13T weighs just 185g despite packing such a large battery, and it is of course all thanks to the Silicon Carbon tech that’s recently been introduced in more and more Chinese phones (and none from Samsung, Apple, or Google).
