The OnePlus 13 is the latest flagship smartphone from OnePlus. Its global model arrived not long ago, and we’re here to compare it to the very best Google has to offer. In other words, this is a OnePlus 13 vs Google Pixel 9 Pro XL comparison.

Despite the drop in trade-in value, Google is still the only place to get a half-decent price for your old Pixel phone. You will get under $300 on the secondary market for the Pixel 7 Pro, while Apple and Samsung rarely pay handsomely for a Google handset. Still, it’s disappointing the Search company has dropped its trade-in prices for this sale.

OnePlus has always felt like a plucky little upstart against behemoths like Samsung and Google. With a 6.8-inch screen and flagship specs on the OnePlus 13, there’s no better yardstick to measure it against than Google’s Pixel 9 Pro XL.

We gave the Google Pixel 9 Pro our coveted phone of the year award because “it nails the basics so nicely that it never lets me down”. No one wants to swap phones regularly and the Google Pixel 9 Pro means you won’t be tempted to do so for a long time.

The Google Store has made an interesting change that shows the price of Pixel 9 phones if the buyer trades-in a device.

Alternatively, Sky Mobile is offering the Google Pixel 9 with no up front cost for £22 per month, with select data plans now half price for six months. These start at £5 for 3GB, which would work out more expensive than through Mobiles.co.uk, but may be a better option for those who prefer to avoid paying anything up front.
