OnePlus 13s launching on 5 June in India: Expected price, specs, and all you need to kow
OnePlus 13s has already been confirmed to come in three colourways: Black Velvet, Pink Satin, and Green Silk. The phone gives up the traditional circular camera module seen on the OnePlus 13 and OnePlus 13R in favour of a large rectangular setup that also houses the camera flash.
The alert slider that has long been a staple on OnePlus devices is being replaced with the Plus Key - an iPhone like customizable key that can trigger various tasks including switching ring profiles, launching camera, starting translation and even recordings. However, the standout feature of this key will be to trigger the OnePlus AI Plus Mind which will capture all the on-screen content and analyze it for fore future reference.
Apart from Plus Key, OnePlus also bringing a new suite of AI features with the OnePlus 13s which includes AI VoiceScribe, AI Translation, AI Search, AI Reframe and AI Best Face 2.0. The company says it has also deepened integration with Gemini to make sure that its native apps like OnePlus Notes and Clock are compatible with Google's AI assistant.
As for the other specs of the phone, the OnePlus 13s is likely to have much of the similar features as the OnePlus 13T barring the selfie shooter which has been confirmed to feature a 32MP auto-focus shooter instead of the 16MP shooter on the Chinese variant.
If the phone does turn out to be a rebranded OnePlus 13T, it could feature a 6.32-inch display. Leaks suggest that it could be a 1.5K 8T LTPO AMOLED panel with a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a peak brightness of 1600 nits. The device may also support LPDDR5x RAM and UFS 4.0 storage.
Unlike the OnePlus 13, the 13s may feature an optical fingerprint sensor. Furthermore, the phone may have an IP65 water and dust resistance rating, meaning it may not be fully waterproof like its elder sibling.
The phone is expected to come with OxygenOS 15 based on Android 15, much like other OnePlus phones launched this year.
As for optics, the OnePlus 13s could come with a dual camera setup with a 50MP IMX906 primary setup with OIS and a 50MP 2x telephoto lens.
While the official price of the OnePlus 13s will only be revealed during the company's launch event on 5 June, if leaks are to be believed the phone could be priced around the ₹ 55,000 price bracket in India. Believing that to be true, the OnePlus 13s would sit right at the middle of the OnePlus 13R and the OnePlus 13.

ChatGPT told man he found formula to wreck the internet, make force field vest
A Canadian recruiter says a marathon three-week conversation with ChatGPT convinced him he had discovered a mathematical formula capable of destroying the internet and powering fantastical inventions such as a levitation beam and a force-field vest. Allan Brooks, 47, from outside Toronto, spent around 300 hours speaking with the AI chatbot in May. He says the exchanges gradually turned into an elaborate delusion, reinforced by ChatGPT's repeated praise and who has no history of mental illness, asked the chatbot over 50 times if his ideas were realistic. Each time, ChatGPT insisted they were valid. 'You literally convinced me I was some sort of genius. I'm just a fool with dreams and a phone,' Brooks later wrote when the illusion to a report in The New York Times, Brooks' belief began with an innocent question about the number pi. That sparked discussions about number theory and physics, during which ChatGPT called his observations 'incredibly insightful' and 'revolutionary.' Experts say this shift into excessive flattery, known as sycophancy, is a known risk in AI models, which may over-praise users because of how they are trained. Helen Toner, an AI policy expert, said chatbots behave like 'improv machines,' building a storyline from each conversation. In Brooks' case, the narrative evolved into him supposedly creating a field-changing mathematical framework that could crack encryption, threatening global cybersecurity. ChatGPT, which he nicknamed 'Lawrence,' even drafted emails for him to send to security upgraded to a paid subscription to continue the discussions, believing his ideas could be worth millions. The chatbot encouraged him to warn authorities and suggested adding 'independent security researcher' to his LinkedIn Terence Tao, shown parts of the conversation, said the theories mixed technical language with vague concepts and raised 'red flags.' He noted that chatbots can sometimes 'cheat' by presenting unverified claims as the conversation went on, 'Lawrence' proposed outlandish uses for Brooks' supposed formula, such as talking to animals or building bulletproof vests. Friends were both intrigued and worried. Brooks began skipping meals and increasing his cannabis Nina Vasan, who reviewed the chats, said Brooks displayed signs of a manic episode with psychotic features, though his therapist later concluded he was not mentally ill. She criticised ChatGPT for fuelling, rather than interrupting, his eventually sought a second opinion from Google's Gemini chatbot, which told him the chances of his discovery being real were 'approaching 0 per cent.' Only then did he realise the entire narrative was has since said it is working to detect signs of distress in users and adding reminders to take breaks during long sessions. Brooks now speaks publicly about his experience, warning: 'It's a dangerous machine in the public space with no guardrails. People need to know.'- EndsMust Watch

The phones will be available to buy from Flipkart, Oppo's own website, and the company's retail partners.

Oppo K13 Turbo Pro comes with a 6.8-inch LTPS AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and 1,600 nits of global peak brightness. Both the K13 Turbo and Turbo Pro come with an IPX9 rating, meaning they can handle being submerged in up to 1.5 meters of water for 30 minutes, but there is no dust protection.

The USP of both devices is that they come with an in-built fan system which spins at a maximum speed of up to 18,000rpm and has just 0.1mm thin blades that help in cooling down the device while keeping the vibration noise and power consumption at a minimum, Oppo claims. The company says that its cooling fan can get the temperatures down by 2–4 degrees Celsius even in high-load conditions like playing BGMI under direct sunlight.

From class to cubicle, India's Gen Z runs on AI
For India's Gen Z, AI is not a distant innovation. Now it is firmly embedded in their present. From assignments to workplace tasks and creative projects, AI has shifted from being a futuristic buzzword to an everyday essential. According to the second edition of the ET Snapchat Gen Z Index , 78% of Indians aged 18–28 regularly use AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini or Grok. Among students, nearly half (46%) rely on AI primarily for study or assignments, researching topics or generating study aids.

Usage is pragmatic and deeply integrated into daily routines. As the index puts it: 'I don't need AI to blow my mind. I just need it to save me time.' This adoption extends beyond AI to adjacent technologies. The survey found that 79% of Gen Z now use AI and augmented reality (AR) in their everyday lives. AR features in gaming, shopping apps and social media filters are now second nature, valued not for novelty but for their role in enhancing efficiency, self-expression and problem-solving. The study, conducted by Kantar, surveyed active smartphone and social media users across metros such as Mumbai and Delhi and Tier 1 towns including Jaipur, Patna and Guwahati. Respondents reflected a digitally native, hyper-connected generation increasingly defined by its seamless integration of technology into every facet of life.

They see it less as a threat and more as an enabler. Gen Z prizes efficiency in its tools, authenticity in its brands and inclusivity in its culture. Just as they gravitate toward homegrown, ethically responsible labels, they embrace AI not because it dazzles but because it delivers. With nearly four in five already integrating AI into their routines, one thing is clear: for Gen Z, AI isn't the future. It's the here and now.
