OnePlus has launched a new OnePlus 13s 16GB RAM variant in India, adding a third configuration to its compact flagship. The new variant pairs 16GB of RAM with 512GB of storage and is priced at ₹64,999. It is available to buy now via Amazon India and the OnePlus online store. The phone itself is not new — the OnePlus 13s first launched in India in June 2025 — but this is the first time buyers in India can get it with 16GB of RAM.
OnePlus 13s 16GB RAM Variant Price in India
The OnePlus 13s 16GB RAM variant is listed at ₹64,999, which is the festive sale price for the 16GB + 512GB configuration. Its regular price is ₹69,999, according to OnePlus India’s festive sale announcement, and bank offers of up to ₹3,000 can bring the effective price down to ₹61,999. Prices vary by seller and colour, and some listings currently show ₹69,999, so it is worth checking the live price before placing an order. Gadgets360 reports that the new variant is available via Amazon and the OnePlus online store.
With the new variant, the OnePlus 13s is now sold in three configurations in India. Price trackers list the base 12GB + 256GB model from ₹54,999, while the 12GB + 512GB model starts at ₹59,999. The new 16GB + 512GB model sits at the top of the range and is aimed at buyers who want more headroom for multitasking and gaming.
OnePlus 13s Specifications
Nothing else about the phone has changed. The OnePlus 13s keeps its 6.32-inch 1.5K (1,216 × 2,640 pixels) LTPO ProXDR AMOLED display with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz, peak brightness of up to 1,600 nits, 2,160Hz PWM dimming and Aqua Touch 2.0. It is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset with LPDDR5x RAM and UFS 4.0 storage.
The phone packs a 5,850mAh battery with 80W SuperVOOC fast charging, which is large for a phone of this size. On the camera front, it has a 50MP primary camera with optical image stabilisation and a 50MP 2x telephoto camera, along with a 32MP front camera. It runs OxygenOS 15 based on Android 15 and comes in Black Velvet, Green Silk and Pink Satin colours. At 150.8 × 71.7 × 8.15mm and 185 grams, it remains one of the most compact flagships on sale in India.
What Is New in the OnePlus 13s 16GB RAM Variant?
Only the memory configuration is new. The OnePlus 13s 16GB RAM variant offers the same display, chipset, cameras and battery as the 12GB models, with the extra RAM and storage as the only difference. For most buyers, 12GB of RAM is already plenty, but the 16GB model makes sense for heavy multitaskers, gamers who keep several large games installed, and anyone planning to keep the phone for three to four years.
OnePlus 13s 16GB RAM Variant: Should You Buy It?
If you are buying the OnePlus 13s now and want the most future-proof version, the new 16GB model is the one to pick — but only at the ₹64,999 sale price. At its regular ₹69,999 price, the gap over the 12GB + 512GB model becomes harder to justify, since the rest of the phone is identical. Buyers on a tighter budget will find the 12GB + 512GB model at around ₹59,999 the better value, with the same chipset, display and cameras.
The OnePlus 13s also faces fresh competition from upcoming launches. The Vivo X500 series arrives in India on November 26, 2026, and Samsung’s Galaxy S27+ has been spotted on BIS, pointing to an early 2027 launch. The iQOO 16R is also tipped to launch in India in December with a 10,000mAh battery. If you are not in a hurry, it may be worth waiting to see how those phones are priced before deciding.
Where to Buy the New Variant
The new 16GB model is available on Amazon India and the OnePlus online store in Black Velvet, Green Silk and Pink Satin. OnePlus is also offering up to 12 months of no-cost EMI on the phone. Before buying, check the live price on both stores, as the sale price and bank offers can change.
