OnePlus today introduces OnePlus AI, which the company described as “Intelligently Yours.” This marks a new phase in OnePlus’s strategy to deliver personalized artificial intelligence experiences.
Alongside this, OnePlus announced the Plus Key, a customizable hardware button debuting on the upcoming OnePlus 13s, along with a broad set of AI tools designed to improve productivity, creativity, and user privacy.
Plus Key: Personalized AI Features
As the next evolution after the familiar Alert Slider, the Plus Key can be set to perform tasks like switching sound modes, opening the camera, starting translations, or launching recordings.
At the center of this update is AI Plus Mind, which activates either with the Plus Key or a three-finger swipe. It lets users save and organize important on-screen information — such as events, bookings, or listings — into a dedicated Mind Space, helping avoid information overload.
Beyond simple saving, AI Plus Mind uses artificial intelligence to understand the context of saved content. For example, it can pull event details from an image or message and add them directly to the user’s calendar.
Using AI Search, users will be able to locate saved content through natural language questions. Additionally, OnePlus intends to add automatic sorting features to AI Plus Mind before the end of the year.
OnePlus AI: New Tools in Development
The company noted that OnePlus AI includes several new tools they are actively developing, all aimed at enhancing the user experience:
- AI VoiceScribe: Records, summarizes, and translates calls or meetings across major messaging, video, and conferencing apps.
- AI Call Assistant (India only): The Dialer app on the OnePlus 13s will provide features like automatic summaries of calls and real-time translations.
- AI Translation: Combines text, live voice, camera, and screen translation into one streamlined app.
- AI Search: Supports conversational searches across local files, settings, notes, and calendars, working together with AI Plus Mind.
- AI Reframe: Analyzes photo scenes and suggests multiple creative framing options.
- AI Best Face 2.0: Arriving via OTA in summer 2025, enhances group photos by fixing closed eyes and unflattering expressions, working with images of up to 20 people—including photos taken on other devices.
Integration with Google Gemini
OnePlus also announced deeper integration with Google Gemini. Soon, Gemini will work across OnePlus apps like Notes and Clock, as well as Google apps, creating a unified AI experience. Gemini Live will allow real-time conversations about what the phone’s camera sees or what’s displayed on the screen.
Privacy and Security
OnePlus emphasized its focus on privacy with its Private Computing Cloud (PCC). For sensitive tasks, AI processing runs securely on the device. If cloud processing is needed, the PCC keeps all data encrypted and protected through a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) that secures the entire process — from device to cloud servers.
The company said its goal is to deliver “deeply personalized and secure AI experiences” through innovations like the Plus Key, AI Plus Mind, and PCC, aiming to create an AI system that fits naturally into daily life.
Availability
The company confirmed that AI Plus Mind will launch first on the OnePlus 13s on June 5, 2025, followed by a software update for other OnePlus 13 Series devices, with plans to expand to more models later.
