Need Urgent Advice: OnePlus 13 for My Dad or Cancel the Order?

URGENT‼️

Yesterday, at the very last minute, my father told me that his phone is dying, so in a hurry I purchased the OnePlus 13 for him for ₹52k, literally 5 minutes before the sale ended. He has been using a Poco X4 Pro since 2022.

But now I'm thinking of cancelling it because of the tempered glass issue on the curved display. How do I give a curved-screen phone to my father? 😭😭 If it accidentally falls on the road while getting in or out of the car, it could become an unnecessary expense for my retired father. Should I get into the hassle of finding tempered glass for it and dealing with UV/glue glass, or should I just cancel the order?

Please guide me urgently. Those of you who have practical experience with the OnePlus 13, I'd really appreciate your advice. It would help me a lot. I can't afford to have such a large amount blocked on my credit card for this long.

I'd be really grateful if you could share your thoughts as soon as possible, since I need to decide whether to cancel the order. ❤️🙏🏼

For everyone worried about battery health

You guys should stop obsessing over battery health. It is just to check if the phone has been used before. You don't have to disable fast charging or cap the charging to 80% or so.

Let the battery age naturally and get it replaced in 3-4 years if it starts having trouble. You paid for the whole phone, use the whole phone - the ~2k display, faster charging, 120 Hz animation and everything.

Don't let battery health be your restricting factor.

So if the OnePlus 16 doesn't come, do we all just jump ship to Oppo?

Considering the uncertainty around Oppo's strategy for OnePlus, will this mean all of us will have to shift to Oppo Find X series phones? I really wouldn't prefer that considering they have horrible resale value as is. Even worse is the fact that while the resale value is one thing, there's just not enough buyers in the market. OnePlus however is a solid brand that the used market trusts. I do admit that even OnePlus phones when bought new end up w 50% value only after a year but they have a good amount of buyers. Oppo I'm unsure about it.

Switched from 13R to 13 after 1 year💕Thanks dad!

Posting after a month:

It's a personal opinion but the not so subtle UI changes they are doing with lockscreen , contour glow , camera ui ....it's just gorgeous.

And the overall smoothness . Don't even joke lad!

It's my first phone with three 50 mp cameras setup and oneplus has one of the best post processing.

Touchwood! I am just loving this experience.

I liked the feel of the bulky boxy oneplus 13R but this isn't so bad either.

Will the oneplus 13 price will go less than 50k or we get to see again this same price in any upcoming sales?

Will the one plus 13 will go for less or equal to 50k again in upcoming amazon sales or this is the final least price we will ever get to see ?

Weather issue

Why isn't the weather app in Oxygen OS not showing any weather alerts? Like IMD(Indian Meteorological Department) issues Orange and Red alerts for rain forecasts. However none of them is seen in the weather app. As far as I know, all the other weather apps provide those warnings. Is it a glitch or a feature that hasn't been introduced yet? If there is a solution to it, please suggest!

The "updates ruined this device" theory is nonsense.

Good enough for 97% health ?

Arrived yesterday, The pearl white looks damm Beautifull in hand than in pictures !!

Can anyone suggest a good case (as this transparent case is too bulky for me) and tempered glass without UV (feels like a normal tempered glass can be placed as the edge curve is not that big).

Totally worth every penny spent. I am very happy as the who is trying to upgrade since last October, finally 🤩.

So, will we miss OOS?

According to an exclusive report by Smartprix, OPPO is reportedly planning to discontinue OxygenOS on future OnePlus smartphones and transition to ColorOS globally as part of a broader software consolidation across OPPO, OnePlus, and Realme.⁣

If true, this would mark one of the biggest changes in OnePlus history. OxygenOS has been at the heart of the OnePlus experience since the very beginning, known for its clean UI, smooth performance, and enthusiast-focused features. While recent versions have shared much of their codebase with ColorOS, the OxygenOS identity has remained a core part of the brand.⁣

It's important to note that OnePlus has not officially confirmed this report, so for now, this should be treated as a rumor.⁣

Would you still buy a OnePlus phone if OxygenOS is replaced by ColorOS, or is OxygenOS the soul of OnePlus?

I think i found a setting that should be off if you want a better SOT without losing much

This enhancement setting is definitely something that needs to be off if you want a usable amount of SOT.....

i haven't done a proper test like doing the same thing and checking if it's bad but i have used it from 100 to close to 20 both on and off.. and i saw a better SOT

Confused between 15r vs 13

I'm planning to buy either 15r or 13 as both are almost at same price in Amazon sale , can u guys pls suggest me which is better. Also is there battery issues after the recent update. The main reason for not going for 13 is the curved display as I'm not sure whether I'll be getting screen guard according to it.
