OnePlus has just started rolling out an update for the OnePlus 13. The brand recently released an update for the OnePlus 13R, bringing camera and connectivity improvements. Now, the flagship model is getting its very first software update, which also comes with an AI model.
OnePlus 13 Update & Gemini Nano
Unlike the incremental changes and tweaks on the OnePlus 13R, the OnePlus 13 is getting a major update that brings support for Gemini Nano (via Android Authority). This is the smallest version of Google’s larger language model (LLM). Gemini Nano is an on-device AI model that can perform various useful features like search, circle to search, text summarization, and much more.
The premium phone is getting its first OxyenOS 15 update with the CPH2655_15.0.0.402(EX01) build number. This update is around 1GB in size. To check if you’ve received the update, users can head to Settings > System and updates > Software update and finally tap on Download and Install if the update is available. For those unaware, the Gemini Nano from Google requires Android AICore app. So after installing the update, it should appear in the Google Play Store.
This is undoubtedly a major feature of the OnePlus 13, which brings on-device LLM. Typically, one would require access to the internet to make use of AI features. However, an internet connection isn’t required for the Gemini Nano. The AICore app on the OnePlus 13 takes over 3GB of space. While it is the smallest LLM, you still get access to AI powered features like smart replies and text summarization.
