going to be interesting to see u compare this phone against s25 the s25 needs 80watt wired and 50watt wireless charging hopefully the s26 will keep up on the good reviews 👍
Since the midnight ocean is thicker than the other 2 colors it doesnt need that piece. That piece is for the other 2 colors so that the case is "one size fits all" for the 13s
Not with the midnight color. It's only needed for the other 2 colors cause they are glass. This midnight color isn't and therefore doesn't need it. It's even specified on the product instructions
At least you actually got the watch. When I ordered mine, the watch and phone was in my cart and I completed the order. After the purchase, they substituted the watch for the earbuds and there was no option to cancel. Their website says you have 30 minutes. Seems like a scam to get you to buy the phone and think you're getting the watch for free. Use caution when hitting the buy button.
I live in Germany and I could choose between the watch and a bang & olufsen outdoor bluetooth speaker. I took the speaker and I regret it 😭 the watch looks super dope
Been using mine for a few days and love it. We got the watch 2r free in the uk but no charger in the box. Got the arctic dawn which i think is the best colour
I've been using the OnePlus Watch 2 for about 2 weeks and this watch is awesome. It looks fantastic, feels super premium, sapphire glass, MLT-STD protection, 50 water resistant, system is super smooth, battery life 3-4 days, charging is amazing fast, NFC is flawless, some sports modes like running are as advanced as the best Garmin watch on the market - it measures balance of your body during running, contact time etc. Actually I did return a $800 Garmin Epix Pro Gen 2 and switched to this one because I just love the possibility to pick up the calls and to dictate reply's on whats up/sms etc. This is more then a perfect Wear Os watch right now - I stress out the sapphire glass and MLT-STD protection. Just buy these or wait for OnePlus Watch 3 that will come out in couple of weeks. There will be also Watch 3 Pro version. Both with ECG functionality. Very good watch that Apple users can only dream about.
This probably something to do with restrictions or rules that your country has and less to do with one plus. Europe in general is pretty hard on phone companies
I bought my OnePlus Watch 2 months ago in that color. I absolutely love my OP Watch 2. It replaced my Galaxy Watch 4. After half a year of ownership I realized I can't go back to a Samsung Watch. I will be picking up a OnePlus 13 and I can't decide if I want to chance the vegan leather or if I want to go with the black model.
Hey J Williams I have Visible+ and I'm not getting 5GUW at all anywhere after I moved from the OnePlus 12 to the OnePlus 13 NA... Why do you think is that?
I ordered mine in the black eclipse. Frankly, I didn't care for the fake leather back panel. Moreover, I didn't like the mixture of the white camera bump with the silver camera ring. Besides, I wanted to check out the new proprietary "Crystal Shield" ceramic material.
@@smartphoneconversations Unless you have a 3-phase connection at your home the 120 W charger will still charge at 80 W max. speed. The homes in US use 110V single phase wiring which restricts max. current. Your 80W and 120W charger will charge your Oneplus at 80W only. When you start charging your phone you can see Supervooc pop up along with max. power it is charging at (it should show 80W).
@@smartphoneconversations If you haven't upgraded your wiring to be able to use the 120V charger it will not charge your phone faster. Then again you might have as I am just assuming since you live in the US.
The good is that they actually feel better and lighter on hand, x8 pro and better camera - 6x zoom + 1 year more of OS, but issue is they using 1.5k screen - OnePlus had better screen, fingerprint sensor, battery, charging speed and cheaper
Already had the watch, so I'm just going to keep it sealed, sell it & put the money back for the upcoming OnePlus Watch 3, but otherwise, the OnePlus Watch 2 & 2R (which for some reason, I kind of favor a little more), are arguably two of the best Wear OS smartwatches to date.
It´s a damn solid phone, battery and display is top and we all know the SD Elite is extra top this year. To bad they had to cut somewhere and this year like always on Cameras. :)) It´s not junk but far from top, but if you do not need top cameras or taking pics in low light you have a damn solid phone for low cost. :)
@@smartphoneconversations Probably because the best camera at the moment in china market - including samsung iphone - is actually held by vivo x200 pro/ maybe will be even better with upcoming ultra. Then Oppo is one of the competing, focusing more on selfie - so in my experience Oppo and Oneplus being related isnt bad, but Oppo Find X8 Pro have 6x zoom, and Oppo Find X8Ultra might have better camera soon. I might actually put Vivo 1st, Oppo 2nd, Samsung 3rd, Oneplus 4th unless oneplus will have a pro//ultra version.
@smartphoneconversations they have for my previous orders but, not this time. That sucked as well because none of the current shipping info they show was ever correct.
I think you're supposed to keep that weird black plastic thing and put in your case. Has something to do with the magnetic capabilities while wireless charging. Not sure though. Hopefully you didn't throw it away.
It's a nice looking phone and watch. My last one plus phone was 7pro and it seems the 12 and 13 are solid. Goog thing these are on sale for a month so I can decide between this or s25 ultra. Gotta wait tho to see what Samsung brings but for the price.. one plus for the win! Look forward to your full review on this one!
u are supposed to keep that piece that was in the case in the case then put your phone in
It's in there now, but I didn't put it on in the video. I was just rushing. 💯
going to be interesting to see u compare this phone against s25 the s25 needs 80watt wired and 50watt wireless charging hopefully the s26 will keep up on the good reviews 👍

I would be so angry, would return it as soon as it came
That's a shame because the watch is a hidden Wear OS gem, best on the market right now. Try to get it elsewhere, you will not regret it.
I live in Germany and I could choose between the watch and a bang & olufsen outdoor bluetooth speaker. I took the speaker and I regret it 😭 the watch looks super dope
@@erikbe7683 Yep, the watch can do so much and you will wear it all day long, trust me.
I have had the phone since November. The blue is probably the best option you can get. The back is really soft.
OnePlus is definitely doing their thing with this device! I'd love to try one again. I had the 7 Pro back in the day and that was solid 💯
Been using mine for a few days and love it. We got the watch 2r free in the uk but no charger in the box. Got the arctic dawn which i think is the best colour
Why are UK customers being deprived of chargers while we are buying more than anyone else?

No charger or case in the UK version taking the piss 😮...
In the Europe the charger is missing too
This probably something to do with restrictions or rules that your country has and less to do with one plus. Europe in general is pretty hard on phone companies
@@MosesMoses-y2mi guess it's the European laws structure for Chinese phones import ..
@MosesMoses-y2m No it's just the UK mate it's a joke ..Run by a load of absolute Nutters ,😂😂😂
No charger in Europe for 13. They do give charger with 12.
do you prefer this or pixel 9 pro?
Watching on the same oneplus 13 😊❤
Good choice!
Is vegan leather durable ?
What mic are you using??

Love my watch 2. It replaced Galaxy watch 6. In my opinion, watch 2 is way better than Galaxy watch 6
Great review does it have the magnetic back for chargers & accessories
Yes it does
Yes it does
@@darrenmason4412 no it doesn't, the official cases do but not the phone itself
Wow wow Wow 😲😲😲 look at that expensive one plus 13 and One plus watch
Do you prefer this or Samsung S24 Ultra?
I have a OnePlus 125w supervooc charger and, let me tell you, the charging speed is unreal!
My OnePlus 11R had a hundred watt charger in the box
Hate this trend.. Also so hard to find official chargers like 100w oneplus / honor etc many places in Europe
@@rohiin my charger brick is missing too
Digging it 👊💯
I need a upgrade from my pixel 8a. The fingerprint sensor does not work for me at all.

Only 80 watts? Spoken like a true product reviewer.😂
80w is faster than anything else available in his country
Nope, it's not. As I stated in the video, I have a 120W charger I'll be using instead of this.

I adore this phone but really wish I'd held out for the midnight color. Best Buy only had black 😢
black is beautiful as well
Mr. Williams l like yours last words you said. Maybe be you could give it to somebody really else. I like your videos with no biases
What team you representing?
Beautiful phone
Color is good,but that silver camera bump on blue back cover...thats total screw up.
🙌🙌🙏🙏
I think the Oppo Find X8 Pro is a bit better option. It gives one year more of software update!
Americans can't buy it
@@MK-Turtles you will change before latest year update.

@JustinPennito which watch is it, might be interested
@donaldwarren7744 it's the green OnePlus Watch 2R. I don't have it yet, but it'll be with my OnePlus 13R, when it comes in.
watching on the motorola edge 24😇

Midnight Ocean is nice
Grrr. I put a deposit down on Dec 18 and finished order on launch date and I'm still waiting. So pissed they use USPS but, better than FedEx
Wow, they normally use FedEx.

Uag dosen t like oneplus ???
Very nice video
Best Buy has the 512GB OnePlus 13 for $100 off with a $100 Best Buy eGift card.

Bought a case just in case. LOL
Nice review, but 4k portrait? What for? Please dont., and anyway where you want to even play 4k portrait.
