Xiaomi 16 leak reveals screen size and massive 7,000mAh battery
Even though we're still months away from the rumoured launch of the Xiaomi 16 series, new leaks are already giving us a pretty good idea of what to expect. The phone is expected to be the successor to the Xiaomi 15 — a device that launched in India just a few months ago. And yet, fresh information about its features and hardware continues to surface online. The latest scoop comes from tipster Digital Chat Station, who claims that the Xiaomi 16 will feature a 6.3x-inch display. We speculate this could be the same 6.36-inch AMOLED panel used on the Xiaomi 15. The leak also brings more clarity on the phone's battery — and it looks like we're in for a serious leaks had hinted at a battery larger than 6,500mAh, and now Digital Chat Station has specifically mentioned a 7,000mAh cell under the hood. That's a significant jump compared to most flagships on the market today. To put that into perspective — the just-released OnePlus 13s already features a 6.3-inch screen paired with a 6,000mAh battery. So, Xiaomi going even bigger with battery capacity by the end of the year doesn't feel far-fetched. Technology is clearly moving fast, and battery innovation — especially with silicon carbon cells — seems to be gaining momentum. It's high time Apple and Samsung also joined the for performance, the Xiaomi 16 is expected to be powered by Qualcomm's next-gen Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chip, which will likely be announced during the Snapdragon Summit later this September. This would make it the direct successor to the current Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, which powers the Xiaomi 15 and many other current Android flagships. While there's a chance that Xiaomi could even potentially use its own Xring 01 chip — the same one that's in the Xiaomi 15s Pro and Pad 7 Ultra — it seems more likely the company will stick with Qualcomm's top-end silicon for this The camera system on the Xiaomi 16 is also said to feature three 50-megapixel sensors — a primary lens, an ultra-wide lens, and a telephoto lens with macro support. Nothing wildly different from the Xiaomi 15 on paper, but we'll likely see improvements in processing and in all, the Xiaomi 16 looks like it'll be a compact flagship phone with some serious battery muscle — possibly the biggest in its class if this 7,000mAh rumour turns out to be true. If Xiaomi follows the same release pattern as last year, we can expect the Xiaomi 16, 16 Pro, and 16 Ultra to be unveiled in China by October, with an India launch likely around March tuned to India Today Tech for all the latest on the Xiaomi 16 series.

OnePlus 13s vs iPhone 16e: A spec-by-spec comparison of two flagship contenders
Earlier this year, in February 2025, Apple launched the iPhone 16e, a new entrant in its iPhone 16 lineup. Fast forward to June 2025, and OnePlus has unveiled the OnePlus 13s in India today (June 5), a feature-rich Android smartphone that appears to challenge Apple's offering directly in the premium mid-range segment. While both smartphones are targeting a similar audience, a closer look at their on-paper specifications reveals notable differences that could influence buying decisions. In terms of pricing, the OnePlus 13s clearly aims to undercut its competition. It starts at ₹ 54,999 for the 12GB RAM and 256GB storage variant, while a higher-end model with 512GB storage is priced at ₹ 59,999. The phone will be available from 12 June via Amazon India, the OnePlus online store, and select retail outlets, with pre-orders already live and promotional offers including discounts and exchange bonuses. In contrast, the iPhone 16e starts at ₹ 59,999 for the base 128GB model, with 256GB and 512GB variants priced at ₹ 69,999 and ₹ 89,900 respectively. Display-wise, the OnePlus 13s features a 6.32-inch LTPO AMOLED panel with a 1.5K resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and peak brightness of 1,600 nits. It also supports high-frequency PWM dimming, Aqua Touch 2.0 for wet-finger usability, and Glove Mode. In comparison, the iPhone 16e sports a slightly smaller 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display. While Apple's screen is renowned for colour accuracy and HDR capabilities, it likely continues to operate at 60Hz, falling behind OnePlus in terms of refresh rate smoothness. On paper, the OnePlus display offers a more advanced experience, especially for gaming and multimedia consumption. Under the hood, the OnePlus 13s is powered by Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, paired with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage for swift app performance and data access. The phone runs on Android 15 with OnePlus's OxygenOS 15 skin, known for its fluid interface and customisability. Apple, meanwhile, equips the iPhone 16e with its latest A18 chip, which offers an 80 per cent performance boost over the A13 Bionic. A 4-core GPU enhances graphics processing, while a 16-core Neural Engine supports machine learning tasks. Apple has also introduced its first in-house modem, the C1 chip, which is designed to improve 5G connectivity and power efficiency. Although OnePlus brings more RAM and storage into the mix, Apple's hardware-software optimisation, coupled with its custom silicon, ensures top-tier real-world performance. When it comes to software features and AI integration, OnePlus takes an aggressive stance with its new 'OnePlus AI' suite. This includes camera-focused tools like AI Detail Boost, AI Unblur, AI Reflection Eraser, and AI Reframe, alongside productivity-focused offerings such as AI Translation, VoiceScribe, Call Assistant, and a new feature called AI Plus Mind Space for content organisation. The OnePlus 13s also introduces a programmable 'Plus Key,' a customisable side button that users can map to specific functions. Apple, however, continues its push for seamless integration with its Apple Intelligence platform, enabling natural language photo searches, text cleanup in images, and the ability to generate emoji (Genmoji) using AI. While OnePlus offers more visible and direct AI tools, Apple's approach focuses on subtle, behind-the-scenes enhancements rooted in privacy and ecosystem consistency. In terms of imaging, the OnePlus 13s boasts a dual rear camera setup with a 50MP Sony LYT-700 primary sensor that includes optical image stabilisation, alongside a 50MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom and electronic stabilisation. The front houses a 32MP selfie camera. Apple's iPhone 16e, on the other hand, features a 48MP rear camera enhanced by computational photography under its 'Fusion' system, and a 12MP front-facing TrueDepth camera with autofocus. Battery and charging are other areas where OnePlus takes the lead on paper. The 13s includes a large 5,850mAh battery with support for 80W SuperVOOC fast charging via USB-C. Meanwhile, the iPhone 16e houses the 4,005mah battery. With the iPhone 16e, Apple claims improved endurance over older models—up to six hours more than the iPhone 11, and twelve hours more than the iPhone SE. The iPhone 16e supports both USB-C charging and MagSafe wireless charging, but its charging speed is likely to be slower than OnePlus's wired solution. Apple also gains an edge in safety and emergency features. The iPhone 16e includes Crash Detection, Emergency SOS via satellite, Roadside Assistance, and Find My via satellite—capabilities that are unmatched in the Android ecosystem. The OnePlus 13s offers an in-display fingerprint sensor and standard Android security features but lacks any comparable emergency integration. On the connectivity front, OnePlus supports 5G, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, NavIC for GPS positioning in India, and NFC. Apple's iPhone 16e also offers 5G connectivity and introduces its custom C1 modem, which enhances network performance and battery efficiency. The inclusion of satellite-based services further broadens its connectivity capabilities, particularly in remote areas. To sum up, the OnePlus 13s delivers tremendous value on paper with top-tier specs, aggressive pricing, and a rich suite of AI and productivity features. It is a phone built for users who prioritise raw performance, display quality, and fast charging. The iPhone 16e, though more expensive, excels in overall software polish, long-term support, emergency services, and ecosystem integration, making it ideal for users already embedded in the Apple world or who prioritise reliability, privacy, and safety. In the end, the choice between the two depends on what matters more to the user: the customisability and spec advantage of OnePlus, or the ecosystem cohesion and user assurance of Apple.
