A OnePlus device bearing the model number CPH-2653 was recently spotted on Geekbench by the team at 91Mobiles. The device scored an impressive 2,986 in the single-core test and 8,779 in the multi-core test on Geekbench 6. In comparison, these scores are significantly higher than those of its predecessor, the OnePlus 12, which achieved 638 and 3,648 in the single-core and multi-core tests, respectively.
How does it compare to the chinese edition?
While the CPH-2653 model’s scores are noteworthy, they fall slightly behind another OnePlus device previously spotted on Geekbench—model number PJZ110, likely the Chinese variant of the OnePlus 13. The PJZ110 achieved a single-core score of 3,236 and a multi-core score of 10,049, indicating possible differences in performance between the global and Chinese editions.
Powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen Elite SoC
The Geekbench listing also sheds light on the chipset powering the OnePlus 13 global variant. The device’s base frequency of 2.78 GHz and a maximum clock speed of 4.09 GHz closely align with the rumored specs of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen Elite (also referred to as Snapdragon 8 Gen 4).
Potential Features: Android 15 and 16GB RAM variant
In addition to the chipset details, the listing hints that the global variant could ship with Android 15 out of the box. It also suggests a possible 16GB RAM variant, which is significantly less than the 24GB RAM option seen in the OnePlus 12.
About OnePlus 13
OnePlus is gearing up to launch its new flagship smartphone later this month, with more details on both the global and Chinese editions expected soon. The OnePlus 13 promises to be a premium Android device, and fans can look forward to official confirmation of its specs and performance in the coming weeks.
The OnePlus 13 is anticipated to be officially released in early 2024, with availability expected in key regions like North America, Europe, and Asia. OnePlus typically rolls out its devices globally, so we can expect a similar pattern for the OnePlus 13.Key OnePlus 13 rumored specs:
- 6.8-inch AMOLED display, 120Hz refresh rate
- Snapdragon 8 Gen Elite (Snapdragon 8 Gen 4)
- 50MP main camera with Hasselblad tuning
- 6,000mAh battery with 100W fast charging and 50W wireless charging
- Android 15 out of the box
- 16GB RAM or more
- IP69 dust and water resistance
The OnePlus 13 is shaping up to be an impressive device, with notable improvements in performance and display quality. However, its success will depend on how it competes with other premium flagship phones. If OnePlus can maintain its reputation for offering great value without compromising on features, the OnePlus 13 could be a strong contender in the Android market.
My optimism stems from OnePlus’ consistent ability to strike a balance between premium features and competitive pricing. Frankly, the only gripe I have had about recent OnePlus phones is the way they look. The large and circular camera module at the back simply does not tickle my fancy whatsoever. I have owned two OnePlus phones and one of my favorite things about them was their design, so I hope we see a new look for the series with the OnePlus 13.
