EDITORIAL: (this is a pre-test listing based on reasonable expectation of battery, screen and imaging performance) Following this year's tend, OnePlus is also releasing a "mini". Their version could be a real hit with a top processor, Silicone Carbon aided battery and fast charging, a great 6.3" screen, IP69 protection and a very good camera setup. Limited to China but sold in India as OnePlus 13S.
