OnePlus 11 debuts with a sub-CA$1K starting price

OnePlus latest attempt at a flagship killer has officially debuted in the international market. The OnePlus 11 comes to Canada with a $999 price tag for the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage model and $1,149 for the 16GB RAM + 256GB storage variant. There's no storage expansion here, so if you need that extra space, you'll have to get the more expensive option. OnePlus pairs that with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor with Android 13-based OxygenOS 13, which we're happy to report is getting four years of software updates instead of the abysmal two in the past.

It gets a reasonably sized 5,000mAh battery that you can top up in just 25 minutes with its 100W SuperVOOC charging support. You can only hit those speeds with the included charging brick and USB-A to USB-C cable. OnePlus takes an unusual approach of not including a USB-C to USB-C cable. But the company reasons that users will bring the cable and the power brick around and the USB-A to USB-C interface is more useful (at least for now) for charging. Unfortunately, there's no wireless charging here, either.
