Alert slider is dead! OnePus 13s to debut in India with Apple-like customizable ‘Plus Key’

After announcing the removal of the alert slider on its phones earlier this year, OnePlus has officially confirmed that the OnePlus 13s will be the first phone in India to debut without the iconic feature, and will instead feature a ‘Plus’ button that can be customised for various tasks.

Notably, the alert slider was a physical metal slider that was present on almost all OnePlus devices except the Nord series and allowed users to quickly turn their phones to silent, ring or vibrate.
