Wow superb good price, wonder if 7.7 can get this price again

That would depend on how fast and how lucky you are. Grabbing the voucher is easy but applying during checkout is the challenge.

Bro do you know why onePlus recently not hype like previous 10 years ago in Malaysia.? I keep wonder why

Right now its no more the flagship killer but the flagship itself, with flagship prices as well.

Oneplus 13 CN set also cant run Oxygen OS "directly" because the Oneplus purposely made it harder to do so this round so that you would buy the international sets instead.

around 2.2k is quite tempting for CN set but the headache

Like mentioned, not recommended if you are not in the know how.

This is with full 5g network, highest refresh rate and resolution. Satisfied la..

WiFi can last 1-1.5hours longer for sot.

Nice.. Thats pretty good.

QUOTE(1024kbps @ Jul 14 2025, 11:04 PM)
you might run into network compatibility issue
CN and international set most likely have different network bands support, international set always support mode bands
plus more CA (Carrier aggregation) bands for LTE-A
and more band for 5GNR, unless you dont really care about them lol
*
I rather not worry about that. Network compatibility issue is not the deal breaker but rather the other main issues like losing network and app compatibity.

Get an international set for a piece of mind. HK sets are international sets too if you could find them.

My Oneplus 12 CN set working flawlessly like it should. I think it would be a better choice if you wanna save yourself from the headache of tinkering with the OP13 CN on OOS.

Yes, I've received 1 OTA update after conversion. The problem I faced was the region SIM lock.

Flashing method I used - https://github.com/kinginu/Oneplus-Ace5-to-13R I used the global ROM, not Indian.
*
Usually sellers will unlock region lock before shipping out the phone. Still lock after flashing to OOS?

Yes some do, but I bought from taobao. I think they are rooting and using the Magisk module to set the SIM unlock status. There are paid services to dry the region unlock off.

I screwed up, flashed Oxygen, rooted and region unlocked with the Magisk module, then removed Magisk and locked the bootloader; ending up with a damaged bootloader requiring EDL. End result I have status '0' for the SIM lock and no more region lock messages. Maybe you can root colour os apply the fix and then straightaway flash to Oxygen, or contact oneplus in China with a receipt and request region unlock.

Anyway I paid a total of RM1,160 for the phone, which is good value in my opinion.
*
Status "0" means the phone is hard locked to a specific network already with no ways of unlocking it with codes. Only option is to send it back to seller and ask if they could help by sending it back to Oneplus China.

The seller usually have some specific codes to remove region lock (the codes are from Oneplus themselves). But it should also work after you flashed to OOS because the earlier region unlock is a permanent unlock.

Unless of course they chose to do it with a different method.

I believe that '0' is SIM region lock is bypassed and it's working fine with a local SIM, no warning message.

My bad for reading your statement wrongly. Status 0 on region lock means no sim lock present. Then it should like like I mentioned that seller has unlocked phone before shipping out the set.

phone long ago buy from hk pay sirim sticker 'tax'...

anyways...

Yes. This is correct. It depends on the seller on what kind of courier he use and how he sends. Also depends highly on your luck. To be safe, buy from Shopee and Lazada. Because the responsibility will be on the seller. Worst case scenario you dont receive the phone, straight cancel and ask for refund.

That is why I said OP13 isn't for everyone. If you are free could you summarize all your manual mods and tinkers into one post so that users and potential buyers know where to look rather than posting in individual posts. nod.gif

Nope. Didnt notice any discrepancy on 5G coverage on mine.
