    Anyone know if this is a reliable review? 99% of “reviews,” nowadays are just paid by the manufacturer to advertise under the guise of being a review.

    Looks interesting. Especially Si/C battery of which I’ve not yet heard.

      The review is for the Chinese version of the Oneplus 13. So, somethings like software update time is not clear.

      Outside, that it should be fine. You can see the pros and cons mentioned by them in the review.

      And now these “journalists” are blatantly posting about getting cruises as gift from manufacturers.

        Yeah there’s absolutely zero integrity so it’s really always going to be word of mouth for me. But most people don’t think that much about it they just fall for one advertisement or review or claim etc.

      Notebookcheck is one of the best review sites, with extreme attention to detailed testing. I have e been following them for many years, over a decade for sure

        Excellent! Thanks for the endorsement, I’ll have a look. A reputable site is always something to hold onto.
