The present OnePlus 11 is an outstanding flagship smartphone that continues to contend with more recent models such as the iPhone 15 and Pixel 8.
OnePlus 12 Release date rumours: One of the first major phone releases of 2024 could be the OnePlus 12, which could usher in a new iteration of Android smartphones. Furthermore, the purported enhancements it has received thus far could potentially convince you to switch from the Samsung Galaxy or Google Pixel that you had previously expressed interest in.
The present OnePlus 11 is an outstanding flagship smartphone that continues to contend with more recent models such as the iPhone 15 and Pixel 8. However, leak-o-spheres indicate that the OnePlus 12 will feature enhancements such as a new, brighter display, a better telephoto camera, and impressive charging and computing performance. As a result, it should be much more competitive with these devices and upcoming ones, such as the Galaxy S24, which is expected to release around the same time as the new OnePlus.
For your convenience, a summary of all the speculations surrounding the new OnePlus that have surfaced thus far is provided below. And we’ll continue to add to this page as new information becomes available, so that whatever you might need to know about the OnePlus 12 will be available here whenever you chance to visit.
The OnePlus 12 is reportedly scheduled for global release in January 2024, with the Chinese market receiving it in December 2023 at the earliest. Additionally, the Galaxy S24 series may debut around that time, which could hinder OnePlus’ efforts to market its phone to Android consumers.
At this time, there are no specific pricing rumors, but it is desirable that OnePlus maintains its $699 flagship price point, which is competitive with rivals’ devices such as the Pixel 8 Pro, Galaxy S23 Plus and Galaxy S23 Ultra, and iPhone 15 Pro, which all cost $1,000 or more.
According to leak-based renderings of the OnePlus 12, its design does not appear to contain many surprises. In earlier iterations of the renderings, one of the rear camera apertures within the large circular camera block on the back was square-shaped, indicating a periscope telephoto camera. Recent renders depict three camera apertures that appear more conventional, so the arrival of this feature is less certain.
OnePlus 12 is rumored to have an IP rating, although the precise magnitude remains unclear. We are anticipating dust and water resistance of IP68, which is comparable to that of other leading flagship phones.
Speculation suggests that the OnePlus 12 will feature a 6.8-inch (or 6.7-inch) OLED panel that operates at 120Hz and emits 2,600 nits of luminance. The OnePlus 12 may be among the brightest smartphones available at this level of illumination, surpassing the alleged and verified values of competing devices.
Additionally, OnePlus might incorporate 2,160Hz PWM dimming for the 12’s display. Theoretically, this system prevents the eyes from straining as rapidly when using the phone’s display; therefore, it may be beneficial for heavy users who wish to watch extensive videos or play video games without experiencing the dreaded eye strain.
With the OnePlus 12’s rear camera set-up expected to include a 50MP main, 50MP ultrawide, and 64MP 3x telephoto combination, in addition to a 32MP selfie camera, it appears to be marginally superior to the OnePlus 11’s 50MP main, 48MP ultrawide, 32MP 2x telephoto, and 16MP selfie camera.
The rumored specifications indicate that the resolution of the ultrawide and selfie cameras, as well as the resolution and zoom level of the telephoto camera, will be enhanced on the new OnePlus.
The OnePlus 12’s telephoto camera appears to be a major focal point. It could potentially be a telescopic telephoto camera, employing the same technology that enables competing smartphones to provide magnifications of 5x or 10x. The 3x speculation would be a regression to OnePlus’ previous highest magnification of 3.3x on the OnePlus 10 Pro and earlier OnePlus smartphones; however, we expected a periscope camera to provide a magnification greater than 3x.
In addition to the fundamental hardware, it appears inevitable that OnePlus will secure the endorsement of Swedish camera manufacturer Hasselblad for the cameras on the OnePlus 12. This partnership, which has been in effect for a number of years, appears to have assisted OnePlus in achieving photo quality comparable to that of the market’s top smartphone cameras.
OnePlus Ace 2 Pro: A Glimpse into the Next Level of Performance
It should come as no surprise that rumors have been circulating that the OnePlus 12 will be equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. OnePlus consistently equips its flagship phones with the most recent and greatest Snapdragon processors from Qualcomm; therefore, the Gen 3 is an obvious choice that will undoubtedly compete with a number of the other top Android phones of the coming year.
There have been rumors that the OnePlus 12 may be available in a variant with 16GB RAM and 256GB storage. However, it is still conceivable that the entry-level model will only include 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. A new high-end configuration, however, could include as much as 24GB RAM and 1TB storage. This would give the OnePlus 12 more memory than any other phone on the market, with the possible exception of one or two gaming phones.
OnePlus excels at charging speed; therefore, speculations that the OnePlus 12 will feature a 5,400 mAh battery and 100W charging align well with the company’s motto of “speed and fluidity.” Nevertheless, it is doubtful whether the United States market will receive this maximum charging pace. Prior iterations of OnePlus phones have provided American consumers with slower charging rates compared to customers in other regions due to voltage differences. For instance, the OnePlus 11 features 100W charging worldwide, with the exception of the United States, where the 80W standard is functional but still substandard.
Wireless charging, which was not an option on the OnePlus 11, is an attribute that we would like to see reinstated on the OnePlus 12. Reportedly, the new OnePlus will support 50W wireless charging, which is good news.
OnePlus is a significant competitor to Samsung, Google, and even Apple in the flagship smartphone market, providing users with an affordable means to acquire the most advanced smartphone technology. For this reason, among all the speculations discussed on this page, the one we most fervently hope materializes is that the price remains unchanged.
We would still be satisfied with the verification of the remaining assertions. By incorporating a brighter display, superior cameras, a larger battery, and additional RAM and storage, the OnePlus 12 would surpass the specifications of the OnePlus 11 and become, when it becomes available, one of the finest smartphones available for purchase.
Unfortunately, the OnePlus 12 will not likely be available outside of China for another month or so after its official announcement. Nonetheless, the delay appears to be worthwhile.
