With the prevalence of the giant phone being ideal, I am sure some of you were looking forward to “small” OnePlus 13T and its 6.3 -inch performance, which were soon making their way on our shore. Yes, we know that 6.3 inches is not small, but also what matters as “compact” these days.
Unfortunately, as the verge reports, it will not be the case. OnePlus told them that 13T would not be sold in Europe or North America, which currently leaves your OnePlus options as OnePlus 13 or OnePlus 13R, both excellent phones, but equally large with a large 6.8-inch display.
“Currently, we have no plans to launch OnePlus 13S in Europe. It is being said, we have mentioned interest in the product from our European users, and we will keep it in mind because we carry forward the decision to launch the product,” OnePlus Europe’s Chief Marketing Officer, Celina Shi, told, told, RuckusThe North American head of marketing gave him a similar statement.
This is very bad because 13T is a complicated phone. Despite the slightly smaller size, OnePlus phone managed to shake a battery with more capacity than 13 and 13r, broadly thanks to its silicone-carbon battery.
OnePlus phone tops our pics for our best phone battery life, only crazy ROG Phone 9 Pro. There is no doubt that 13T will make that list with its elder brothers.
Currently, we have no plans to launch OnePlus 13S in Europe.

For fans of OnePlus phone, 2025 has been a bit disappointing. Earlier this year, the company announced that we would not get the OnePlus Open 2 foldable phone this year.
“We have decided not to release a foldable this year,” said a spokesman.
It was believed that Oppo finds the N5, OnePlus Sister Brand, will be rebuilt as Open 2. That device will also not be exported out of China.
OnePlus did not mention the tariff in any of its communications, but we wonder whether the President Trump’s business with China is causing the OnePlus to pull back from the trade war, although it explains why Europe will not get 13T.
Nevertheless, it is a shame that we will probably not see cheap, small phones with a large -scale battery life.
