OnePlus 13, Xiaomi 15, Honor Magic7 Pro unveiled, Week 44 in review

Last week Qualcomm unveiled the Snapdragon 8 Elite and this week we got the first phones with the flagship SoC.

Xiaomi, OnePlus, and Honor all unveiled phones. The OnePlus 13 has a triple 50MP Hasselblad-branded camera system and a massive 6,000mAh battery. The phone is out in China, starting at CNY 4,499 ($632) for the 12/256GB model.

The Xiaomi 15 Pro has an even larger 6,100mAh battery and a 50MP Leica-branded camera system with a 5x telephoto with closeup abilities. The 15 Pro is out in China, starting at CNY 5,299 ($742) for its 12/256GB version.

The vanilla Xiaomi 15 has a smaller 5,400mAh battery, and a less-impressive 60mm zoom camera (with closeup abilities of its own). The Xiaomi 15 starts at CNY 4,500 ($630) for its 12/256GB starting version.

Honor’s Magic7 series also arrived with the vanilla and Pro. Both feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite, but the Pro swaps the already impressive 180MP zoom camera for a new 200MP (1/1.4-inch) 60mm zoom. The Magic7 Pro has a 5,850mAh battery (5,650mAh on the vanilla). The series is going on sale in China on November 8. The Magic7 starts at CNY 4,500 ($630), while the Pro starts from CNY 5,700 ($800).

Indonesia banned the sales and use of the iPhone 16 series. Тhe ban is a direct result of Apple’s unmet investment commitments in Indonesia, as Cupertino had previously pledged to fund upwards of IDR 1.71 trillion ($109 million) in local R&D facilities. As per the latest figures, Apple has invested IDR 1.48 trillion ($95 million) so far, which forced the Indonesian Ministry of Industry to block the issuing of International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) certification for the iPhone 16 and Apple Watch Series 10 devices.
