Anonymous, 11 Jan 2025Why is fm radio, HDMI, audio jack, as card slot obsolete? ... moreThe only useful feature out of these is the headphone jack, but it was removed to make phones more water resistant, and now we have wireless earphones anyways, those are just as good if not better than wired ones

Those are perfectly useful and essential features even in 2025.
You still ride a bike or a car even though it was invented over 100 years ago...
Fm radio is very important in case of blackout you can still listen to directions by the government even without internet!
HDMI offers crystal clear video and audio signal.
Audio jack offers the best sound and there is no equal replacement to it.
And sd card reader is a great way to expand your storage on the fly.
All these old features work perfectly fine in the year 2025 so why remove them deliberately?
Audio jack is only removed to push people to use the useless cloud storage services.
Same thing for the other features. They are only removed door economic reasons to rip off the customer even more.
Less features, more price kind of deal.

psinferno, 10 Jan 2025I think this comment feature on gsmarena looks like 20 year... moreIt's strange, yes. If you have the opportunity to see and touch it - go and do it. I think you will fall in love at first sight. And OxygenOS for me and many others is the most perfect and smooth-running operating system on phones.
I stopped watching reviews of this type. Better look for videos with people who express their opinion after a month or more of real use of the phone. 3 and a half years ago I had to buy a new phone. I didn't want it to be specialized in a certain area, but to be able to do everything at, if not top level, at least quite close to top - the best price/quality/software ratio. Not the best for photos, but weak in other areas. Or the best for games, but taking bad photos. Then I chose 1+ 10 pro. Here in the comments they were simply ruining the quality of its photos, as well as in various reviews elsewhere. But I came across a video where a guy spent 30 minutes explaining how to best use Hasselbad's Master Mode and various other settings when shooting with this phone, and showed me various photos he took with different settings. They looked amazing. I bought this phone and I don't regret it for a moment. And I'm saying this as someone who was a die-hard Xiaomi fan before this phone. But I've start to value the money I spend and want to get the best (as much as possible) for every cent I spend.

Scamsunghater, 10 Jan 2025Well you're paying the same price for 1 : Better... moreIf your buying one of these phones you obviously want performance and that performance starts getting worse after just 2 years, I start looking at replacement generally after 2-3 years and I'd say 4 years max so anything above that is overkill. Only phone I would keep over 4 years would be an ultra phone to get my moneys worth and they're basically bricks at the minute. I miss the slim oneplus 8 really bad.. It was so light too with premium materials. Xiaomi 12tpro I'm using is top heavy and plastic

Greg Helvetique, 08 Jan 2025Same price as Samsung/Google but not going to 7 years softw... moreWell you're paying the same price for
1 : Better/Same quality cameras
2 : Better software (OOS 15 is the best software skin)
3 : Better battery life
4 : Better cooling system
5 : Better chip/Same chip
And for all that, basically all you're sacrificing is 2 years of software support, no one even keeps their phone for more than 3 years at this point, why are we acting like we care about software support?

Burger , 09 Jan 2025Display 510 pp ❌ cunsum more battery
And 1080 is enough.
... more
1 : Most games nowadays support 120fps, what is this ? 2017 ?
2 : 50 mp is miles better than 12mp, and it's not even mp that matters most, it's sensor size, also 12mp is indeed not better in low light, that's just not true lmao
3 : No FM Radio , Tv support , jack , HDMI
What is this ? 2019 ? All the things you mentioned are obsolete
Conclusion : OnePlus has not disappointed it's fans, you're just stuck in the past.

I think this comment feature on gsmarena looks like 20 years ago, it's so bad, but that's not why I'm here.
The OP13 review here is like the lowest ranking of any of the OP13 reviews out there. It the phone really that bad (i know the score is not bad, but still way behind a S24U) or do they just don't like OP? Here in Switzerland we don't have access to a lot of the chinese brands officially unless you import them or a big store imports them. And the OP13 would be available unlike the Vivos for example.
We also have eSim available in the OP13, only the power brick is missing.
So it gsmarena here wrong or is it really not a top flagship phone?

sdkk, 09 Jan 2025Different people, different flavors, different preferences.... moreyeah i got you man. The Oneplus 12 last year was imo the most complete phone for the money, 90% of people would've been happy with that, the OP 13 continues that trend.

jiyen235, 09 Jan 2025where are you seeing "bad" selfies? I can't ... moreDifferent people, different flavors, different preferences. Realistically, every flagship phone is good at the photos and it's really a matter of preferences. It depends on the scene, some phones are a little better, some a little worse. For me, the difference is 5-6-7 percent. The only thing I'm really jealous of Vivo is the macro photos. At 1+ 13 you have to be at least 50cm to focus, but it still makes quite decent pictures. For my taste, Samsung makes yellow photos, Google dark photos, Vivo add blue, especially in the sky of the snings, on the iPhone and cheyomas (and until recently I was a Har fan of the chayri), it seems reddish photos. Too bright. For me, Oneplus really approaches the most of the roar color, especially the skin of the skin. I say again - for me. And Oxygen is just a phenomenal operating system. I have access to Samsung and Iphone on a daily basis and with my heart I say - I prefer oxygenos every day everywhere. I also talk about experience, as I use 1+ 10 pro. But I almost always shoot in Master Mode. That's how I specialized in Hasselbrad's gluttony that I already take my pictures while I walk, and I'm not stationary. And the results are great. And most importantly for me, during these 3 years, the photo software was so improved after the updates that when I look at a photo from Bachao and Sninka from now, they seem to me to be made by 2 different phones with a few years of difference between them. Today I even ordered 1+13 16/256. It was a pretty good offer - 100 Euro discount and 1+ 2R clock and wireless gift headset. For my taste 1+, they are currently offering the most complete product for the money they want for other manufacturers. But everyone is free to buy and enjoy what they think best for themselves. I just shared my mind and my taste. And I am a person who wants to take the maximum for the money he gives, so I do not slave to a brand. If I think that another brand gives me the same money - I won't even think and I will prefer it.

Greg Helvetique, 08 Jan 2025Same price as Samsung/Google but not going to 7 years softw... morethey have a better phone than the direct price competitors. The S25+ will obviously be inferior.
SO essentially you choose between a phone that has more updates but is worse or a phone that has less updates but is good.

sdkk, 09 Jan 2025300 euros more is unacceptable to me. After all the reviews... morewhere are you seeing "bad" selfies? I can't see any video that has ONLY bad selfies. The Vivo is extremely inconsistent, The Tech Phenomena has some nice vids on YT, the X200 Pro on one day takes GREAT, damn near faultless selfies and on another day they're terrible but some great ones are mixed there as well. I didn't see any round of photos with the Vivo which were all around terrible.
Also, the Oneplus boosts the colors, A LOT. Through Jermaine's Lens had a nice video on it. Oneplus/Oppo boost everything in Auto mode. If you want realistic shots you need to go for Master Mode. Otherwise Vivo is definitely more accurate.
And yeah, i did mention that in an earlier comment. The Oneplus is good enough for 90% of people and then some. The software is really great as well. But I don't think Funtouch is bad, it's just not exceptional like the others. And I value camera, not knocking on you, im just saying these different phones cater to different people. The extra 300 euros gets you the best phone cameras around basically, so i don't really think it's not NOT worth it. But I do understand your POV completely.
Oh btw, Oneplus/Oppo have a horrendous problem when taking backlit human subject shots. So if you plan to take photos like that, stay cautious.

Display 510 pp ❌ cunsum more battery
And 1080 is enough.
120 FPS is overpower most of games and apps are 60 FPS so why you force us with 120 Fps.
Camera : 50 migapixel ❌ 12 migapixel is more than enough and its better in lowlight photos.
No FM Radio , Tv support , jack , HDMI etc .
Onelus 13 is disappointed its fans . 💔
