The OnePlus 13T has been confirmed.
OnePlus announced the phone in a pre-recorded faux “launch” video that is truly bizarre.
The phone should land this month, but it is still unclear if it will be available outside of China.

Today is April Fool’s Day, so we need to treat anything we see as suspect. Even if a company announces what looks like the next best Android smartphone, we need to hold up our hands and say, “Wait a minute,” before believing it to be true.

That said, we are nearly certain that OnePlus’ April Fool’s Day event actually does include a legitimate announcement. On Weibo, the company posted an over-the-top, incredibly silly video depicting a fake smartphone “launch.” It involves Thor’s hammer, a trip through space and time, the destruction of an entire planet, and a man being shrunk down and almost getting crushed under a shoe. It’s…a lot.
