RealLifePhones, 31 Oct 2024so the strategy works. People used to complain about high p... moreI'm not. We knew phones would be getting more expensive because of the 8 elite and the higher prices for memory and storage. So yes, it's more expensive than last year but not by a lot and you get a much better phone.

    Is the sd 8 elite very power hungry. all smartphone makers are increasing their battery capacity. If it's very power demanding then handling the heat will also be a headache🧐

      FredrickX, 31 Oct 2024So it actually ends up being cheaper than the leaked prices... morePhone of the year easily , the problem is green line issues and motherboard failure which i hope is rectified

        jiyen235, 31 Oct 2024and? This has a more expensive Snapdragon 8 Elite and it�... moreOnly 200rmb more expensive than the Oneplus 12 base model. The Oneplus 12 base model was 4,299rmb. That's really very good for the specs on offer. It's the best value Chinese new flagship launch so far. Basically this is at least as good as the Xiaomi 15 pro but a lot cheaper. Definitely for the price it's the best allround newly released flagship

          I guess what they're missing against Apple is good video and camera performance.
          And what they're missing against Samsung is having 6-Year software support.
          Finally what they're missing against Google is having Community Support (root, recovery, drivers, kernel, custom roms, etc etc).

          BBK Electronics (Vivo/Oppo/OnePlus) can fix these shortcomings. If they want to. Judge not what they're saying, judge them by their actions!

            Mills, 31 Oct 2024630USD for 12/256 is amazing. Making it cheaper than iPhone... moreBro thats price for chinese with chinere rom inside.
            The blobal one will be like +500 bucks,

              IpsDisplay, 31 Oct 2024If this is "nothing new" I'm waiting for you... moreS25 Ultra is S24 Ultra with 8 elite and no tube design. Nothing more.

              Rog 9 is Rog 8 with periscope that replaces super wide + 8 elite

              Xperia 1 vii ( or what ever it is called) is probably 1 vi with 8 elite + maybe 1 difference exmor .

              Edge 60 Ultra : I expect same phone with successor of 8sg3 ( that will exist, hyperOS codes show it). Lyt600 to replace ov64b

              Mate 70 / P80 : just like previous gen. Hardware from 2022, soc from 2020, retail price of 2025. Nothing new.

                This is good launch and good pricing by Oneplus.
                Competes well with Xiaomi 15, Vivo X200, Honor Magic 7, Oppo Find X8.
                This has similar cameras like others while having bigger battery and largest cooling chanmber. So +1 for 1+.

                Iqoo 13 remains the biggest disappointed of the year.

                  Aierlan, 31 Oct 2024Wow priced the same as Xiaomi 15 but with better specs. I t... moreWell the global version will be no less than 1200 still better price than Samsung or Apple which for much worse phone ask much more money.

                    Very interesting just have to wait for UK pricing. Is there going to be a 13r?

                      Just one question why all the new phones with new CPUs cant be unveiled before Xmas as global only in China. Not many Chinese accepts Xmas and people from EU and US would benefit greatly from having new phones as an Xmas gift.

                        jiyen235, 31 Oct 2024and? This has a more expensive Snapdragon 8 Elite and it�... moreCritics is about brands just changing 2 or 3 components compared to previous phones. Nothing really new is being done .

                        Nothing different like Samsung K Zoom, LG wing, Blackberry Priv has been seen for years.

                        That happens because Qualcomm and mediatek only focus on raw power and make chips too expensive, which harms budget to create phones.

                        Worst part is when brands fool people into believing they need chip that scores over 2.800.000 antutu + at least 12gb ram to use " circle to search" , " object eraser" , " live translation" .

                          Allegedly will be using an older screen technology, same charging speeds ,no new battery chemistry too

                            I wish the blue colour also had a matching blue coloured camera lens. That white/silver looks pretty jarring compared to the sleek blue of the rest of the phone

                              Smithravi, 31 Oct 2024That means OnePlus can take better pictures and record bett... moreNot better but for less money, it's pretty close! It was already well demonstrated with the old op 11 on 12, and we will see how this one works.

                                Anton .el PAPI., 31 Oct 2024Are you talking about the pixel 9 pro xl and the iPhone 16?... moreThat means OnePlus can take better pictures and record better videos than iPhone 16 Pro Max or 15 Pro max or better than Pixel 9 pro?
                                I don't think so.
