At an event in New Delhi, OPPO India today launched the OPPO K13 Turbo Series 5G comprising of the OPPO K13 Turbo Pro 5G and OPPO K13 Turbo 5G — India’s first smartphones to feature a built-in cooling fan for thermal management.
The OPPO K13 Turbo Series feature OPPO’s self-developed Storm Engine, the most advanced air-cooling technology ever implemented in a smartphone. It claims to be capable of delivering 220% more airflow than conventional smartphone fans and improve overall cooling performance by 20%. To address the challenge of limited internal space, the Storm Engine module is 70% smaller than traditional solutions, creating space for other components and enabling the integration of a larger 7000mAh battery without increasing thickness. Setting a new benchmark for durability, it is also the industry’s only smartphone cooling fan module with full-level waterproofing, certified to IPX9, IPX8, and IPX6 standards. Complementing the active system is a large 7000mm² vapour chamber cooling and a 19,000mm² graphite layer, which passively distribute and dissipate heat across the CPU, battery, and display. Together, these systems maintain stable frame rates, accelerate recovery from heat build-up, and ensure comfort even in outdoor gaming conditions.
The OPPO K13 Turbo Pro 5G is powered by Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 delivering a 31% boost in CPU speed and a 49% jump in GPU power over its predecessor. Its next-gen Adreno GPU, built on an advanced sliced architecture similar to Snapdragon 8 Elite, ensures ultra-smooth graphics and rapid frame delivery even in demanding titles. Beyond raw performance, the integrated NPU brings advanced on-device AI capabilities — from real-time image understanding to intelligent gameplay optimisations — without relying on the cloud, preserving privacy and reducing latency. Future-ready connectivity with Wi-Fi 7, 5G speeds up to 4.2 Gbps, and Bluetooth 6.0 guarantees uninterrupted online play and lightning-fast downloads, making it an ideal choice for gamers and creators alike.
The Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 on the K13 Turbo Pro 5G enables Snapdragon enhanced Super Frame and Super Resolution, intelligently boosting frame rates and upscaling graphics in real time for sharper details, HDR visuals, and fluid motion without the need for a separate display chip. Precision control is delivered through the Synopsys 3910P flagship touch IC, Gaming Hot Zones calibration, Screen Protector Detection that maintains over 95% tap accuracy, Splash Touch for responsiveness with moisture, and Glove Mode for accurate input even with gloves up to 5mm thick. Dual stereo speakers, OReality Audio, and Ultra Volume Mode up to 300% provide a spatial and realistic soundstage, while AI Game Assistant features such as One-Tap Replay, Silent Launch, and Footstep Enhancer and X-axis linear motor give players a competitive edge.
The OPPO K13 Turbo 5G is driven by the MediaTek Dimensity 8450 and is paired with the ARM G720 MC7 GPU. The upgraded NPU 880 boosts AI efficiency by 40%, enabling features like real-time scene optimisation, lag-free voice commands, and smart system tuning.
The OPPO K13 Turbo Series is powered by a 5-year durable 7000mAh large-capacity battery which is supported by 80W SuperVOOCTM Flash Charge, and the devices can charge from 1% to 100% in just 54 minutes.
