The 6.82-inch 120Hz ProXDR LPTO 4.1 AMOLED screen of the OnePlus 13 has a maximum brightness of 4,500 nits (1,600 nits in high brightness mode). The OnePlus 13 has a quad-curved display with Ceramic Glass protection on top, departing from the curved display of its predecessor. The enormous 6,000mAh battery of the OnePlus 13 supports both 50W wireless charging and 100W cable fast charging.

iPhone 16 or OnePlus 13: Which one should you buy?

A bigger 6,000mAh battery, quicker 100W charging, a better display with a higher refresh rate of 120Hz, and a telephoto lens are just a few of the numerous benefits that the OnePlus 13 has over the iPhone. But the iPhone 16 runs iOS 18, has a comparably capable CPU, supports Apple's AI capabilities, and has extended software support.

The decision is straightforward: the iPhone 16 is the sole alternative available to Apple enthusiasts in this price range. But OnePlus is the clear pick in this price range if you can put up with the Android environment, a little bloatware, and a little less software support.
