The OnePlus 13 is coming, and it will support magnetic wireless charging, but with a twist. The twist being that it’s apparently not going to have magnets inside, but will instead rely on magnetic cases to hook up to magnetic wireless chargers.

This information comes straight from a OnePlus exec on Weibo, but since the original text is in Chinese, we have to rely on machine translation and that can always go awry, so do keep that in mind.

The exec in question has also confirmed that OnePlus will launch wood grain design cases for the OnePlus 13, although the wording strongly hints at these not being made out of real wood, instead simply emulating the look of wood.

        Oh, sure. That’s what I meant, though that, the OnePlus doesn’t have embedded magnets either, so it’s a bit of a silly thing to claim
