OnePlus' new ‘small' phone isn't coming to the US, but its AI features are
While the latest phone in the OnePlus 13 lineup is exclusive to India, the AI features that it comes with will be making their way to US users. The most notable is Plus Mind, which allows users to easily save information to a dedicated 'Mind Space' instead of manually logging important dates or appointments.
Schedules, reservations, event information, and other data can be extracted from images or text and then automatically added to a user's calendar, and then it can be quickly retrieved later using OnePlus' AI search feature. OnePlus says a new Plus Mind feature will be rolling out 'later this year,' which will automatically categorize saved information to help improve organization.
Plus Mind will initially be available on the compact OnePlus 13S that's launching in India on June 5th, a variant of the 13T that was recently released in China. Both phones, which are unavailable in the US and Europe, have the new customizable Plus Key button, which replaces OnePlus' signature Alert Slider. Like the Alert Slider, Plus Key can be used to switch between normal, mute, and vibrate-only modes, alongside other actions like launching the camera, recording audio, or translation.
Plus Mind will be rolled out to the rest of the OnePlus 13 series via a future software update, and the company says that more devices will follow. Plus Mind can be activated with the new Plus Key button or an upward three-finger swipe on older phones that lack the Plus Key, such as the OnePlus 13. Every OnePlus phone launching this year is expected to feature the new Plus Key.
Alongside Plus Mind, OnePlus is developing a suite of AI tools, including an AI translation app that combines text, live voice, camera-based, and screen translation capabilities, and an image-reframing tool that analyzes photos to suggest the best cropping options. Another AI editing tool that's rolling out 'this summer' will be able to automatically correct facial expressions and blinking.
Two features that are only launching in India are AI VoiceScribe, which OnePlus says can 'record, summarize, and translate calls and meetings' directly within messaging and meeting apps, and AI Call Assist, which provides automatic summaries and real-time translation during calls. The Verge reached out to OnePlus to ask if it's planning to roll out these features globally but we haven't heard back yet.

HJT Everywhere: Huasun Demonstrates Flexible PV Integration from Balconies to Electric Vehicles at SNEC 2025
SHANGHAI, June 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Huasun Energy, the world's leading heterojunction (HJT) solar technology provider, launched three astonishing new products to push the limits of solar application on the first day of SNEC PV Power Expo 2025 in Shanghai, including aesthetic balcony solar products, vehicle integrated photovoltaic (VIPV) solution and anti-glare PV modules. Urban spaces often present multiple challenges for traditional rooftop solar. Huasun's new colorful balcony solar system meets this need with a compact, plug-and-play design tailored for apartments and high-density housing. It features pre-assembled brackets, vibrant HJT modules, and built-in microinverters—allowing residents to install their own clean power within only 15 minutes. As electric mobility accelerates, so does the need for extended range and off-grid charging options. Huasun's VIPV solution addresses this by integrating HJT solar modules directly into the vehicle surface. Featuring cambered HJT modules with 0BB design and curved glass, the system generates over 1.2 kWh of electricity per day—sufficient to support up to 25 km of additional driving range. Over the course of a year, that translates to approximately 2,000 km of clean, solar-powered travel—ideal for remote, off-grid, or low-infrastructure environments. Where solar installation used to be restricted by glare concerns—particularly near highways, railways and airports—Huasun's anti-glare modules now offer a breakthrough solution. Engineered with specialized optical treatment on the module surface, these HJT modules minimize glare while maintaining high power output—ensuring coexistence of superior safety and performance. As the world's largest HJT manufacturer, Huasun Energy keeps leading in the R&D and large-scale production of high-efficiency n-type silicon-based HJT ingots, wafers, cells, and modules. By continuously adapting advanced HJT technologies to real-world scenarios, Huasun is driving the broader adoption of solar energy across modern life.

Billionaire Lance Gokongwei's Robinsons Land Sells $536 Million Of Malls To REIT
Philippine billionaire Lance Gokongwei is hiving off about 30.7 billion pesos ($536 million) worth of shopping malls into his family's RL Commercial REIT that will help the group's diversified property arm Robinsons Land Corp. raise funds to bankroll its expansion plans. Robinsons Land—a developer of offices, residences and hotels controlled by the Gokongwei family's JG Summit—will sell nine shopping malls to RL Commercial in exchange for 3.85 billion shares, priced at 8 pesos each, according to a Philippine Stock Exchange filing. The latest infusion of 324,108 square meters (sqm) of mall space to RL Commercial will boost the REIT's portfolio by 39.2% to about 1.2 million sqm of shopping malls and office buildings. The deal comes a year after Robinsons Land sold 34 billion pesos of properties into the REIT. The transaction provides Robinsons Land, the second-largest developer of shopping malls in the country, with RL Commercial shares it can sell to help fund a five-year expansion plan that will entail investments of as much as 125 billion pesos ($2.2 billion). Robinsons Land and rivals Ayala Land and SM Prime are stepping up expansion plans amid a consumption boom in the country. Spearheaded by Robinsons Land CEO Mybelle Aragon GoBio, the first non-family to take the helm at the 45-year old developer, the company will boost its mall and office space by 50%, increase hotel room keys by 25% and double its logistics capacity. Robinsons Land aims to have 69 malls with 2.45 million sqm of gross leasable area by 2030, up from the existing 55 malls with a combined GLA of 1.7 million sqm. Its leasable office space will increase to 1.2 million sqm from 793,000 sqm in the same period. JG Summit also has interests in airlines, food and beverage, banking, petrochemicals and utilities. The business was founded by the late billionaire John Gokongwei in 1954 as a corn starch factory. After Gokongwei passed away in 2019, his six children—Lance, Robina, Lisa, Faith, Hope and Marcia—inherited his fortune. The siblings had a combined net worth of $3 billion, placing them at No. 7 on the list of the Philippines' 50 Richest when it was last published in August last year.
