The OnePlus 13 is on its way, and it’s bringing a new twist to wireless charging. While it won’t have built-in magnets, it will work with magnetic cases that snap onto magnetic wireless chargers. This innovative approach offers a flexible and convenient way to charge your OnePlus 13.
This news about the OnePlus 13’s magnetic wireless charging comes from a OnePlus executive on Weibo. But since the original post was in Chinese, we’re relying on machine translation. It’s important to note that machine translations can sometimes be inaccurate. So, take this information with a grain of salt.

It’s still possible that the OnePlus 13 itself will have the necessary magnets for magnetic wireless charging. If not, OnePlus will likely offer cases that can turn your phone into a MagSafe-compatible device. This approach is like what many case makers already offer for different phones.
OnePlus executive has also confirmed that the flagship phone will come with wood grain design cases. However, the wording suggests that these cases won’t be of real wood. Instead, it will simply imitate the appearance.

The OnePlus 13 is set to launch later this month with the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor and a generous amount of RAM. This upcoming smartphone is also tipped to feature an upgraded camera setup.
Oppo Find X8 series, on the other hand, is confirmed to feature proper magnetic wireless charging. The officials even showed off Oppo magnetic accessories working with the Apple iPhone. That means the accessories will be cross-compatible, and MagSafe products will work on the Oppo phones. It’s unclear whether the same will apply to the OnePlus 13.
But again, OnePlus and Oppo are sister brands. Therefore, as the upcoming Oppo flagships are adopting a proper MagSafe implementation, so could the upcoming OnePlus flagship.
