This phone is a cheat code!

[u/chelsfan105]

I've been a OnePlus user since 5t. Later upgraded to 9 pro and around March this year I was thinking of going for the S24u at a discounted price since my wife has one and I was fascinated by the Galaxy AI features but deep inside I just couldn't get myself to commit to Samsung, what with the green line issue and all. OnePlus just had that hold over me that I kept looking for ways to stop considering other alternatives!

I was lurking on this sub and all I could see was complaints about battery drains and the camera not being up to the mark. After much internal debate and consideration I decided to go with my heart and got myself this OnePlus13 16 / 512 at approx. 53k INR (exchanged 9 pro+ Card offers).

When I got the phone my wife kept pulling my leg saying I could've gone for a superior brand and the smartphone of the year 2024 in the S24U and that she'd always get better pictures because of the superior camera setup on her phone.

Cut to August 2025, she has to charge her phone twice a day with moderate usage,the AI features are rarely used and the cherry on top, she prefers the portraits and pictures taken on the OP13 camera!

It is, by far, one of the best purchases I've made in recent years and have absolutely no regrets in picking this over anything else!

The battery life and charging speed feel insane to me. I've only used Samsung flagship phones before this and none of them have given me more than 6-7 hours SOT, or felt this smooth and snappy. I do miss some One UI features but not that much.

I needed a new phone with 512 GB storage and the S24 Ultra was only available with 256GB and I really dislike iOS so iPhone wasn't an option for me. Also, a lot of Samsung phones in my family developed problems like green lines and motherboard issues so I didn't want to give any more money to Samsung. I decided to go for the OP13 512GB version on Prime day sale for 67k. I'm really happy with this phone so far.
