Apple iPhone 16 Plus and (Oppo) OnePlus 13 tie on the OH Rank at a score of 73. Apple iPhone 16 Plus wins on Selfie and Video; (Oppo) OnePlus 13 wins on Battery and Screen. Apple iPhone 16 Plus is 1.3mm wider than (Oppo) OnePlus 13. (Oppo) OnePlus 13 is the more recent release, from Nov 2024.
EDITORIAL: Like itâs smaller version, iPhone 16 Plus is an excellent alternative to the Pro models â lacking are just the 120Htz refresh rate screen and a telephoto camera. The A18 processor is marginally slower than the A18 Pro chip used in 16 Pro and Pro Max making vanilla iPhones a better choice for more people. Battery charging remains painfully slow as with every iPhone and if coming from Android, iOS usebility and customization options can be downright upsetting. But iPhone users love how well Apple devices play with each other, so thereâs that.
EDITORIAL: OnePlus has been doing things right for a long time, always searching for the âflagship killerâ title. They got it right this time with a phone that cuts (a few) corners with the camera while besting the competition in performance and battery. The screen is great too, just not as bright as top competition. OnePlus still includes an excellent mute-vibrate-ringer slider but the SD memory and desktop replacement software are missing as always. No AF on Selfie either, only 4 OxygenOS future updates
Both phones here were scored by me, using the same ten categories, with no ads, sponsorships, or manufacturer relationships — this comparison is as objective and honest as it gets.
