A great future denied – the OnePlus 13T (aka 13s) proved quite popular in last week’s poll, but most voters that are interested don’t live in one of the two countries where the 13T/13s will be available, China and India, respectively.
Interestingly, less than 10% think that OnePlus cut too many corners – it did cut some, but it looks like none of the deleted features will be missed all that much.
The main concern that we saw in the comments was about the cameras – no, not the missing ultra-wide module, but the image quality of the 50MP main and 50MP 2x telephoto. It was never going to top the vivo X200 Pro mini on cameras, but it could have at least beaten it on availability.
There were some arguments in the comments about what constitutes “small”, but 6.2-6.3” is the new normal – every major smartphone maker that had a sub-6” model has now discontinued it, which suggests there is no market for those.
Anyway, we expect that the OnePlus 13T/13s will do well in the markets where it is available – and can only hope that this success will motivate OnePlus to make a 14T/14s and make it widely available.
