The OnePlus 13 boasts one of the best camera systems available on a smartphone, and a new software update is set to enhance its capabilities even further.

According to Android News, this upcoming update will improve the focusing capabilities of the rear cameras. Additionally, enhancements to the tone and color of photos taken with the rear camera are also expected.

Released internationally in January, the OnePlus 13 features three 50-megapixel cameras on the back: a 50MP primary camera from Sony, a 50MP wide-angle camera, and a 50MP telephoto camera from Sony with a 3x optical zoom, utilizing a “triple prism” assembly. While the app does support a 6x zoom, this hybrid zoom relies on the combination of the cameras, software, and AI.

Our review noted that the phone takes “punchy, detailed, and exciting photos in most environments.” The 6x zoom has been described as “really good.” There’s also “good consistency between the primary and wide-angle cameras.”

The OnePlus 13 is the best Android phone currently available and is also among the top overall smartphones. In addition to its impressive camera system, the phone boasts an excellent design, is available in various attractive colors, and offers long battery life. The Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset powers it.

It’s always encouraging to see new phones receive software updates soon after their launch. These updates often address bugs appearing shortly after a device is released. In this case, OnePlus is improving the camera system on its latest flagship model, and, likely, the update will also include various bug fixes.

The new update, CPH2655_15.0.0.602(EX01), is being rolled out and will improve stability and performance. It weighs in at 1.26GB.

Powerbank

A good power bank isn't exciting until your phone drops to 5% during a flight, a commute, or a long day away from an outlet. That's when having a reliable backup battery suddenly feels essential. Prime Day is packed with portable charger deals, but many of them are generic products that look good on paper and disappoint in daily use. For this shortlist, I focused on trusted brands, practical features, portability, and unique use cases. Whether you want a dependable everyday charger, a MagSafe companion, or an emergency battery for outdoor adventures, these are the power banks I'd consider buying during Prime Day.
