OnePlus 13 vs. iPhone 16 Pro: Can the flagship killer take another head?
- OnePlus has launched its flagship, OnePlus 13, in China pairing Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite, which will be first challenger to Apple's 2024 flagship iPhone 16 Pro with A18 Pro chip that powers new Apple Intelligence features.
- While the OnePlus 13 retains the design language of its predecessor, this year's model modernizes things to match an aesthetic that's now become the norm among flagship smartphone makers: flat sides.
- The new phone has a trio of 50-megapixel (MP) shooters and the main camera can record videos up to 8K at 30 frames per second (fps), 4K at 60 fps, 1080p at 480fps for slow motion; while its Ultrawide camera gains an increased 120-degree field of view.
- OnePlus 13 comes with OxygenOS 15 laid over Android 15; while iPhone 16 Pro comes with iOS 18 out of the box, which includes tools to help users compose and refine text, reply to emails, summarize audio recordings and call transcripts, generate images, and even create custom “Genmoji.”
- OnePlus is making two big changes to its colors this year, departing from last year’s Flowy Emerald and years of green shades in favor of a new blue finish.
- OnePlus 13 supports wired charging speeds up to 100 watts and wireless charging up to 50W while wireless charging stands at 15W Qi charging or 50W charging if users opt for its AirVOOC charger.
- Apple's marquee features in iPhone 16 Pro are the Camera Control and Visual Intelligence. The former doubles as a sophisticated control system. While Visual Intelligence helps users perform Google Lens-like searches on real-world objects.
- iPhone 16 Pro comes with Apple's AI tools. As of the most recent December iOS 18.2 update, there’s built-in support for AI writing tools, image generation, and even direct integration with ChatGPT; whereas OxygenOS 15 has fewer AI features focused predominantly on photography.
- Finally, the OnePlus 13 starts at an expected price of $800, whereas the iPhone 16 Pro starts at $999 for 128GB.
- Considering all aspects, both OnePlus 13 and iPhone 16 Pro have their strength, but the verdict remains that iPhone 16 Pro is ahead in the league with a more mature platform, an app ecosystem that takes full advantage of its gaming capabilities and AI tools beyond photography.
