The OnePlus 12 has been announced in China today. We’ve already talked about the phone in our initial announcement. We’re here to take a closer look at the OnePlus 12 specifications, as the phone does have a lot to offer in that regard.
The OnePlus 12 includes an immensely powerful set of specifications
First and foremost, do note that the OnePlus 12 features a 6.82-inch QHD+ (3168 x 1440) display from BOE. It’s the BOE X1 panel that the company announced together with OnePlus and OPPO. It is a curved display with a centered display camera hole. It is an AMOLED LTPO display with an adaptive refresh rate (1-120Hz).
This panel also goes up to 4,500 nits of brightness at its peak. That makes it technically the brightest display in the industry as of now. The Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protects this phone’s display. The bezels around the display are very minimal, and the screen-to-body ratio is 93.5%. We’re also looking at a PPI of 510. High-frequency PWM dimming is also a part of the package (2,160Hz).
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is combined with up to 24GB of LPDDR5X RAM
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC from Qualcomm fuels this smartphone. That is the company’s most powerful processor. OnePlus is offering 12GB, 16GB, and 24GB (LPDDR5X) RAM variants of the phone. The 12GB RAM model comes with 256GB of storage, the 16GB RAM variant includes 512GB of storage, while the 16GB and 24GB RAM units include 1TB of storage. All storage models use UFS 4.0.
OnePlus is also using advanced cooling here. The company is utilizing a large vapor chamber with a dual-cycle heat dissipation structure. The OnePlus 12 is also IP65 certified for water and dust resistance. It comes with Android 14 out of the box, and OxygenOS 14 on top of it.
A large 5,400mAh battery is backed by 100W wired & 50W wireless charging
A 5,400mAh battery sits inside the phone, while the device supports 100W wired charging. 50W wireless charging is also supported here, as it’s making a comeback this year. The OnePlus 11 did not offer it. 10W reverse wireless charging is supported. OnePlus does include a 100W charger in the box, and a Type-A to Type-C cable. A protective case is also included.
A 50-megapixel main camera (Sony LYT-808 sensor, f/1.6 aperture, 23mm 7P lens, OIS) is included here. A 48-megapixel ultrawide camera (Sony IMX581 sensor, f/2.2 aperture, 114-degree FoV, 14mm focal length, 6P lens, 3.5cm macro shooting) also sits on the back, and so does a 64-megapixel periscope telephoto (OmniVision’s OV64B sensor, f/2.6 aperture, 70mm focal length, 4P lens, OIS, 3x optical zoom, 6x in-sensor zoom) unit. There is a 32-megapixel camera (21mm focal length, 5P lens) included on the front.
A new vibration motor is used here, along with Bluetooth 5.4 & Wi-Fi 7
The company also included a new vibration motor here. OnePlus refers to it as ‘Bionic Vibration Motor Turbo’, though that is based on machine translation. A different name could be used globally, keep that in mind. USB 3.2 Gen 1 is supported here too. Super linear dual stereo speakers are used here, while Spatial Audio is supported. Bluetooth 5.4 is on board, as is Wi-Fi 7, and 5G support.
The OnePlus 12 measures 164.3 x 75.8 x 9.15mm, while it weighs 220 grams. The phone comes in Black, Green, and White color options, as you can see below.
