In the ever-evolving landscape of smartphones, OnePlus consistently leads the charge with its innovative offerings. The latest additions to their lineup, the OnePlus 12 and 12R epitomize the brand’s commitment to pushing boundaries and redefining user experiences.
The OnePlus 12 boasts a stunning display that sets a new standard for visual excellence. Featuring a cutting-edge LTPO Dynamic AMOLED panel, colors pop with vibrant intensity while blacks are deep and immersive. Screen brightness is also perfect for outdoors nearing 4500 nits, and each display is also Dolby Vision and HDR10+ certified. It is also worth noting at this juncture that these are both “ProXDR displays,” which means they can display HDR content (like photos) within the app – like iPhones. They also have a feature called “Aqua Touch” that allows the phone to detect droplets on the screen, so it can distinguish a finger touch and mistouch from droplets. Nonetheless, whether you’re streaming your favorite content or diving into mobile gaming, the OnePlus 12’s display elevates every interaction with its clarity and detail.
Underneath the hood, both the OnePlus 12 and its sibling, the 12R, are powered by 2023’s and 2024’s best Snapdragon processors paired with abundant UFS 3.1 or 4.0 storage up to 1TB. Both are running OxygenOS on top of the latest Android 14 operating system and there are also substantial 8-16GB LPDDR5X RAM configurations available thanks to the inclusion of the brands’ new Trinity Engine (using 3 key components — CPU Vitalization, ROM Vitalization, and RAM Vitalization) this ensures that performance is not just smooth but also responsive, even when multitasking or running demanding applications. From productivity tasks to intensive gaming sessions, these devices handle it all with effortless ease.
Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the advanced camera systems on both the OnePlus 12 and 12r. Equipped with state-of-the-art sensors and lenses, capturing moments with stunning clarity and precision is effortless. The OnePlus 12 with its rear: 50MP primary, 48MP ultrawide, and 64MP periscope telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, delivers exceptional photo and video results, even 8k video recording, besting even the likes of Samsung’s Ultra phone. Up front, we also get a very clear 32MP offering delivering some stunning selfies. The 12R also has a respectable setup with its rear: 50MP primary, 8MP ultrawide, and 2MP macro combined with a front: 16MP camera. One thing is clear though, whether you’re shooting landscapes or close-ups, the OnePlus 12 and 12R deliver professional-grade results thanks to their advanced and intuitive shooting modes.
Design-wise, both devices exude sophistication and style. The OnePlus 12 features a sleek, minimalist design crafted from premium materials, while the 12R offers a slightly more compact and less premium form factor (not that you will notice) without compromising on elegance. Whichever device you choose, you can be sure to turn heads with its premium craftsmanship and attention to detail. Of note is the stunning flowy emerald variant which may be our favorite design so far in 2024.
In terms of connectivity, the OnePlus 12 and 12R are at the forefront with support for the latest Wi-Fi, 5G, and Bluetooth technology. This ensures that you stay always connected, enjoying blazing-fast speeds and seamless connectivity no matter where you are. Whether you’re streaming content, downloading files, or video-calling loved ones, you can do so with confidence, knowing that your connection is both reliable and lightning-fast. Also of note is the phenomenal battery life we have been achieving with each device, with both a 5400Mah (OP12) and 5500Mah (OP12R) we have been clocking 8-12 hours screen on time on a single charge and with the impressive 100-Watt fast charging and 50-Watt wireless charging, this thing is the equivalent of the Energizer bunny – it keeps going and going and going!
In conclusion, the OnePlus 12 and 12R represent the pinnacle of smartphone innovation and OnePlus’ return to form. With their stunning displays, powerful performance, advanced camera systems, and affordable price tags, these devices redefine what’s possible in a smartphone. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast, a photography aficionado, or simply someone who appreciates premium craftsmanship, the OnePlus 12 and 12R are sure to exceed your expectations and redefine your smartphone experience.
