Oppo K13 Turbo series coming 11 August: Specs, features and everything we know so far

Oppo is set to expand its mid-premium smartphone portfolio in India with the launch of the K13 Turbo Series on Monday, 11 August 2025. Aimed at gamers and power users, the series introduces two new smartphones: the Oppo K13 Turbo Pro and Oppo K13 Turbo, each promising sustained performance, advanced cooling systems, and on-device AI capabilities.

India’s First Smartphone With Built-In Cooling Fan

One of the most notable features of the series is the integrated cooling fan, making the K13 Turbo Series the first in India to offer active cooling in this form. The fan is part of an active + passive thermal management system, which also includes a vapour chamber and a seven-layer graphite cooling structure. Oppo says this setup can reduce surface temperatures by 2–4°C compared to competing models, enabling long-term stable performance at high frame rates during intensive gaming sessions.

The Pro variant is tailored for users seeking flagship-like performance in gaming and multitasking. Oppo claims the device offers up to 120fps sustained frame rates and GPU performance that even outperforms some Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 phones in extended stress tests.
