OnePlus is all set to launch its flagship OnePluls 13 smartphone in India today. Meanwhile, Samsung has also confirmed that its Galaxy S25 series will launch in India and other global markets on January 22, paving the way for a high-stakes battle between two flagship devices.
Ahead of the launch of two phones, let's take a look at a detailed comparison based on the latest leaks and rumors.
OnePlus 13 vs Galaxy S25: Screen
OnePlus 13 is expected to feature a 6.82-inch BOE
The Samsung Galaxy S25 is expected to feature a 6.2-inch LTPO panel with a 1080p resolution. The phone could also get an amti-reflective coating, which was the standout feature of the S24 Ultra.
OnePlus 13 vs Galaxy S25: processor
Both the OnePlus 13 and Samsung Galaxy S25 are expected to be powered by the same Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. However, each phone's individual performance will depend on how both brands tune this powerful processor, not just in terms of extracting raw power, but also how the phone dissipates heat.
OnePlus 13 vs Galaxy S25: battery and charging
The OnePlus 13 is expected to feature a 6,000mAh battery with 100W fast charging support. There could also be support for 50W wireless charging and Apple compatibility such as magnetic charging.
Meanwhile, for the Galaxy S25, Samsung is expected to keep the same 4,000mAh battery as its predecessor, along with support for just 25W wireless charging. The good news is that rumors suggest that Samsung could finally bring Qi2 wireless charging to the Galaxy S25 series, meaning users could get the chance to use iPhone like MagSafe charging.
OnePlus 13 vs Galaxy S25: camera
OnePlus 13 should feature a triple camera setup at the back, with a Sony LYT 808 primary sensor, a 50 MP Sony LYT600 telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom and a 50 MP Samsung JN1 ultra-wide-angle lens. For selfies and video calls, there is a 32 MP Sony IMX612 front camera.
Meanwhile, the Samsung Galaxy S25 will likely feature a 50MP primary shooter, 12MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 10MP 3x telephoto lens. On the front, there could be a 12MP shooter.
OnePlus 13 vs Galaxy S25: price
The Samsung Galaxy S25 lineup should come at a similar price point to last year, starting at ₹74,999. However, the OnePlus 13 is expected to see an increase over last year's starting price ₹69,999.
Samsung could have the upper hand over OnePlus in terms of display if it brings the anti-reflective coating to the Galaxy S25. However, the Chinese smartphone maker could have a huge lead over the standard Galaxy S25 in terms of battery, charging speeds, improved IP ratings and higher resolution cameras.
However, keep in mind that these prices and speculations are currently based on leaks and we will have to wait for the official launch of the Galaxy S25 and OnePlus 13 to get a clearer picture of this highly anticipated battle.
