The OnePlus 13, like many modern smartphones, has opted to remove the traditional 3.5mm headphone jack in favor of a more compact design and a focus on wireless connectivity. However, that doesn’t mean you have to give up using your favorite wired headphones or speakers.
With the right adapter, you can still enjoy high-quality audio from your wired devices. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process to connect wired (3.5mm) headphones/speakers to your OnePlus 13.
