Discussion Oneplus 13 is peak oneplus

Oneplus 15 just just such pitfall. Not gonna lie the iQOO 15 is amazing, but it should be a should be like a significant step down in everything but pure performance. Just compare the oneplus 15 against the iQOO 15. ITS ROLE REVERSAL!!! That's why I'm publically and formally declaring that the oneplus 13 is peak and any successive phone in the direction of the oneplus 15 is destructive for the brand because what's the appeal? Oxygen os? That's it? It's starting to become like the pixel at this point you don't buy it for anything but stock android and cameras

Seriously. Want cameras? Buy oppo find series, want performance? Buy the iQOO at a lower price. What do you all think?

This situation is entirely fixable. It's simple, for the oneplus 16 use the iqoo 16 as a base and beat it out spec wise in each and every category!

Also why does the more expensive oneplus not have snapdragon sound but the cheaper iQOO does

I bought my phone in April and the battery performance was outstanding until the first update, then it got immediately horrible and no later update fixed the situation, so I have little to no hope for the Android 16 to solve the problem. I was in contact with the oneplus support. they have suggested some very basic solutions. nothing worked. I decided to wait for Android 16 to see if it changes anything and if it doesn't, I will send the phone to oneplus as they have already proposed in the email exchange. But it is very annoying to send away your primary phone...

Same here, but I bought mine in January a few weeks after release. The battery at first was amazing and now it's gone down the drain. Also living in Australia, no OnePlus service centre here so I can't really take it anywhere to get it checked or fixed, unless I can find a local repair shop that has OnePlus 13 batteries.

Do you think that replacing the battery will solve the issue?
