OnePlus 13 gets customizable battery charging limit with Android 16 update
Users testing the update have more choice for when they want the charging limit feature to kick in.
- OnePlus 13 recently received the Android 16 beta 2 update, intended for developers and advanced users.
- This update improves the battery charging limit feature by removing the fixed 80% limit. Instead, users can customize the limit, going from 80% to 95% in 5% increments.
- This change brings better flexibility for balancing daily battery needs against long-term battery longevity.
OnePlus recently rolled out Android 16 beta 2 for the OnePlus 13, making it the first device outside Google Pixels to get the platform update this early. This update is meant for developers to test their apps on, but it also helps find some of the new features that are coming to OnePlus smartphones in the near future. As it turns out, OnePlus has improved its 80% battery charging limit feature to give power back to the users, figuratively.
As spotted by an unofficial OnePlus System Apps channel on Telegram, the latest Android 16 beta 2 for the OnePlus 13 improves the battery charging limit feature. On Oxygen OS 15, which is based on Android 15, users could merely toggle the 80% charging limit setting present at Settings > Battery > Battery health. On this new Android 16 beta 2 build (which OnePlus still labels as Oxygen OS 15 in the Settings app), users can toggle the battery charging limit and then choose the limit they want to restrict themselves to, going from 80% to 100% in 5% increments.
