OnePlus 13T leak

OnePlus was one of the first to release its flagship smartphone offering at the beginning of the year, beating everyone – including Samsung – to the punch with its OnePlus 13 series. The OnePlus 13 and OnePlus 13R were made available  globally on 7 January but there’s another device set to join the line up in the OnePlus 13T

OnePlus has already confirmed the device is coming, and there have been a number of leaks surrounding it too, including that it will run on Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. The latest leak – or leaks we should say – present what the OnePlus 13T could look like though, and well, it’s somewhat familiar.

What will the OnePlus 13T look like?

The device has appeared a couple of times on Chinese microblogging platform Weibo from a number of accounts, and all show the same design, adding weight to their authenticity. In one video, the OnePlus 13T is seemingly able to be balanced on one finger and spun around.

It features flat edges, round corners and a square-shaped camera module in the top left corner, not too dissimilar from what the current iPhones offer. There is also a physical button on the left edge, expected to be the Quick Key that is replacing the signature alert slider, while the square camera housing appears to feature a triple rear camera. 

In another post, leaker Digital Chat Station presented an image of what they claim to be the OnePlus 13T. The design is consistent with the leaked video, as well as another Weibo post showing a close up of the camera housing, but it’s a much clearer image. The post also claims there will be three colour options, translated as Cloud Ink Black, Morning Mist Gray and Heartbeat Pink.

For now, OnePlus has only confirmed the OnePlus 13T is coming “later this month” and it has teased the device’s super slim bezels by comparing it to the iPhone 16 Pro. If the leaked designs are accurate however, this device could be even more like iPhone than we first thought.

Next-gen Siri will sync your AI chats and spread them across Apple’s walled garden
Apple wants Siri to become ChatGPT with an iCloud subscription

Apple’s long-delayed AI overhaul may finally be starting to take shape, and the company appears ready to push Siri far deeper into its ecosystem than before. According to a new report from Mark Gurman, Apple is developing a major Siri upgrade that will synchronize AI conversations across devices through iCloud, turning the assistant into a more persistent and connected AI system inside Apple’s tightly controlled ecosystem.

The upcoming Siri redesign is reportedly being prepared as part of Apple’s broader iOS 27 and iOS 28 strategy, with the company positioning the assistant more directly against AI products like Google Gemini and ChatGPT. Instead of functioning as a simple voice tool, Siri is expected to evolve into a conversational AI assistant capable of maintaining synced chat histories across iPhones, iPads, Macs, and other Apple hardware.

Apple’s next-generation Pro iPhone could arrive with one of the biggest camera upgrades the company has introduced in years. But according to new analyst reports quoted by Forbes, that improvement may also come with a significant increase in manufacturing costs - raising fresh questions about whether future iPhone prices could climb even higher.

The focus of the latest leak is the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, which are expected to debut a new variable aperture camera system. Supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claims the upgraded camera module could cost Apple roughly 50 percent more than the camera hardware currently used in its Pro models.

More than the confirmed specifications, I’m concerned about the Indian pricing and the US availability.
Electronics, Mobile Phone, Phone

Motorola has done something unusual. Before officially unveiling the Edge 70 Pro+ on June 4, 2026, in India, the brand had published all the specifications, pictures, and other marketing material related to the phone on its website. 

It’s all there, before the launch, leaving nothing for the rumor mill to speculate about. And it isn’t accidental, because the landing page hasn’t been taken down. It just says that the product is currently out of stock while revealing everything else.
