OnePlus has expanded its device lineup with two key launches on Thursday—introducing its 6 mm-thick tablet, the Pad 3, globally, and unveiling the OnePlus 13s smartphone in India, priced from ₹54,999. While the Pad 3 is yet to hit Indian shelves, its global price tag of $700 positions it closer to rivals like Samsung and Apple. Here’s a closer look at what each device brings to the evolving OnePlus ecosystem.

India's Top 100 Billionaires

August 2025

As India continues to be the world’s fastest-growing major economy, Fortune India presents its special issue on the nation’s Top 100 Billionaires. Curated in partnership with Waterfield Advisors, this year’s list reflects a slight decline in the number of dollar billionaires—from 185 to 182—even as the entry threshold for the Top 100 rose to ₹24,283 crore, up from ₹22,739 crore last year. From stalwarts like Mukesh Ambani, Gautam Adani, and the Mistry family, who continue to lead the list, to major gainers such as Sunil Mittal and Kumar Mangalam Birla, the issue goes beyond the numbers to explore the resilience, ambition, and strategic foresight that define India’s wealth creators.

In a departure from the brand’s long-standing design, OnePlus has replaced the signature alert slider with a new “Plus Key,” a programmable button that can trigger functions such as launching the camera, flashlight, or a preferred app, and toggling between sound modes.

Under the hood, the 13s runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, with a 5,850 mAh battery supported by 80W SuperVOOC fast charging. The phone runs on OxygenOS 15, which is based on Android 15.

AI integration takes a central role, with features built on Google’s Gemini model. The “AI Plus Mind” engine is designed to manage and recall information, while other tools include on-device translation and camera enhancements.

The camera setup includes a 32MP autofocus front camera, a 50MP wide sensor, and a 50MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom. In India, the OnePlus 13s is available in two configurations: 12GB + 256GB (₹54,999) and 16GB + 512GB (₹59,999), in black velvet and green silk. A pink satin variant is available globally in the base configuration.

OnePlus Pad 3 with a bigger display and better performance

OnePlus globally launched its latest Pad 3, which poses a sharper, slimmer, and more capable follow-up to its previous Android slate. With a larger 13.2-inch high-resolution display and the same Snapdragon 8 Elite chip that powers flagship phones, the Pad 3 aims to sit comfortably between work and play. Less than 6mm thick, the device features a sharper screen than Apple’s 11-inch iPad Air and is pushing into big-screen territory, with the battery to match. It houses a 12,140mAh cell that promises up to 17 hours of video playback and six hours of high-end gaming. The Chinese giant is offering two storage variants to its Indian audience – either 12GB RAM with 256GB storage or a more premium 16GB + 512GB option – and dual colour options—Storm Blue and Frosted Silver.

Priced at $700 in the US, the Pad 3 sits right between Apple’s 11-inch and 13-inch iPad Air models, both in size and pricing. The India launch of the tablet is expected in the coming weeks.
