When you’re looking to get your hands on brand-new flagship phones, it’s not always easy to find a deal. But OnePlus has a pretty generous offer for those ready to upgrade. Right now not only will you save on your new phone, but you’ll also get a free gift thrown in with your purchase. The OnePlus 13’s North American launch is close at hand, and the company guarantees an additional $50 off the device at launch when you pre-pay $50 today. On top of that, you’ll also get a free smartwatch or pair of earbuds with a value of up to $230 as part of the deal.
So how does this process work, exactly? Essentially, you put $50 down before the OnePlus 13 is officially unveiled on Jan. 7, 2025 — coinciding with CES 2025 — and you’ll be able to take that $50 and an extra $50 off the device during the preorder window. The freebies include the OnePlus Watch 2R or OnePlus Buds Pro 3.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
The catch? Well for starters we don’t yet know exactly what the launch price of the OnePlus 13 is going to be, and that won’t be revealed until Jan. 7 — at which point it’s too late to get in on this campaign. Same goes for the exact specs, which are likely to be broadly similar to the Chinese version of the phone but are as-yet unconfirmed. The free accessories are all limited in supply too, so you’ll want to get in on this promo as soon as possible if you want to lock in your preferred added extra.
It’s important to note that you can get your $50 back if you change your mind. Simply cancel your order during the deposit stage (before Jan. 7) and you’ll get your refund. If you aren’t impressed by the phone or price after its unveiling and don’t pay the remaining balance by Jan. 13, your order will be canceled and you’ll get your $50 deposit refunded, according to OnePlus’ terms and conditions. You will also be able to trade in eligible devices for further credit during the final payment stage if you do decide to go ahead.
