Every phone manufacturer out there must have a strategy for integrating AI into its products at this point, which is non-negotiable. OnePlus arrived a little later to the group, but it’s still here. The company first announced plans to add its own personal AI to OnePlus telephones in May, and starting this month, it will be available for the OnePlus 13 and 13R.
At a start event in London earlier this year, I also had the opportunity to learn about the company’s plans for developing more sophisticated and complex AI features for its devices.
Being able to distinguish themselves from their competitions is one way Android phone makers can have a solid AI technique because all of them are increasingly using best-in-class Google chips and relying on Google’s Gemini AI. I was impressed by how far OnePlus appears to be thinking strategically and not to focus solely on AI. Even if its primary AI rollout isn’t completely original, it’s likely to catch people’s attention.
Plus Mind, a declaration AI tool from OnePlus, is conserve, suggest, store, and seek information based on the information being stored on your phone screen before being saved in an application called” Mind Space.” Plus Mind can be activated at any time, either using a dedicated button ( if available ) or a swipe-up gesture. It may suggest making a timeline entry if it discovers information about an occasion or reservation.
According to Arthur Lam, director of OxygenOS and AI technique for the company, Mind Space is a position to “organize your scattered recollections.” All of your most significant information will reside in this gateway. Artificial research will make it possible for you to find what you need without the knowledge load that you might already be familiar with, or it will automatically convert information into another language to make it accessible and visible.
Plus Mind will be made available with the upcoming release of the OnePlus 13S, a phone made specifically for the Asian market and comes with a dedicated AI button ( the” Plus Key,” as OnePlus is calling it ) on the side of the phone. That means we will have to wait a little while before fully enjoying OnePlus ‘ AI vision for ourselves, both in the US and Europe. The OnePlus 13 will eventually become available as an over-the-air release later this year, though the company has not yet provided an exact date.
Plus Mind and Mind Space: My initial feelings
You must instead use a three-finger tap up from the bottom edge of the screen to install the Artificial features on the OnePlus 13, which was released prior to the addition of the Plus Key. When I personally tested this, it was a hit or miss when evaluating whether I could get it to function. There is a certain flair to it; you must start from a few inches above the lower seal, and there is a good chance of unintentionally removing what is on the monitor.  ,
It’s obvious that OnePlus created a dedicated box for Plus Mind, and it’s undeniable that every upcoming OnePlus phone will have one of their own Plus Key. However, it is unfortunate in fact that the key is missing from its most commonly used 2025 premier phone.
After utilizing Plus Mind to keep a variety of articles, I had mixed views about how beneficial it was. I found that Mind Space’s natural language enabled me to access the information of these events after the fact, and the process of recording and creating events out of the details displayed on monitor was simple. Mind Space was only able to summarize the entire length of what I had been reading when I saved articles I thought were exciting, aside from the specific word that was displayed when I turned on Plus Mind.
I had a hard time organizing the Mind Space material into collections. Instead of the AI acting as the default method for categorizing all you’ve saved, this is a mechanical process. This seems to have a missed chance, in my opinion.
OnePlus, like other Android phone manufacturers, has the advantage of utilizing the best features from Google’s Gemini mobile tools while even choosing what additional features it wants to add to its phones to make them stand out from its competition. That said, its first exploration of AI with Mind Space, along with Nothing’s personal dedicated hub for information, snippets, links, and reminders, is bound to bring comparisons.
What comes next for the OnePlus AI?
The first stage of OnePlus ‘ three-stage AI strategy includes Mind and Mind Space, respectively. Next is adding a huge language model to Plus Mind, which will allow your phone to know your habits and create a “persona” that it uses to understand you.
It will help you understand yourself, Lam said, and it might even lead to some” surprising” or “enlightening” aspects of yourself.
When OnePlus reaches the point where it intends to become a complete AI representative and become a personal assistant with complete knowledge of you. However, the business is not yet there. It is currently working on a few more tips.
AI VoiceScribe and AI Call Assistant, which both provide you with in-call language in both text and words, are the first to arrive in India (once more, not the Union or the US).
OnePlus is introducing two AI image equipment in a more lighthearted way. The first, AI Best Face 2.0, will let you change the faces of up to 20 people in a group photo so that everyone in the group is looking their best ( for example, if they have their eyes closed or have what OnePlus refers to as a” suboptimal expression ) ). AI Reframe, in contrast, will evaluate your careless holiday photos and suggest imaginative cropping and framing techniques to give the impression that you weren’t three cocktails full when you shot them.
These pictures features will be available on OnePlus smartphones this summer, but you might have to wait a little longer for the most recent release of the OnePlus AI device.
