Is it just me not liking this huge and very protruding, asymmetrically placed camera island at the back of the phone? Remember the good old OnePlus 5T with its sleek 7.2mm thickness out of which a tiny dual camera island protruded only like half a mm? Good old days gone by. Now all phone manufacturers make thicker phones that don't really last longer on one battery charge and worse, with huge camera island monstrosities at the back. So it would be either wobbling on a desk or you have to put a very thick case on it. Wondering how thick the phone would be with a case from which the cameras don't stick out. I guess about 12mm if lucky. Or mabye even 13mm... :-( Also... It's so tall! I wouldn't mind if it was wider (like 18:9 or even 16:9 ratio), but this long, it would barely fit into any of my pockets due to its length... Otherwise I like the specs and software (currently I have a OP 8T) and the price (at least the Chinese price, don't know how much more it will cost in Europe), just the design is what I kind of dislike...

    Jerry, 13 Jan 2024Deciding between Pixel 8 Pro, Galaxy S24U and OnePlus 12! W... moreWe've had OnePlus 8T, Nord 100, 200, 10 & 20 for the past four years in our family. Great Photos, Battery and fast charging. I've had no issues except for an older model. My Nord 200 on its last update a year ago had an os issue. My carrier replaced it with the upgraded version no charge. I still have my 8T and will be getting the 12 when available by me.

    We have had BB, Moto, Samsung, Apple, LG, CAT, HTC, and possibly a Sony at one time amongst our family of 6 and business. For the price, LG [no longer in the phone business] and OnePlus have been the best. I mean at its core, everything has the same internals now and it really comes down to feel and usage. Even the 8T at the time was probably more phone than I needed, but to have the extra available without paying a Samsung or Apple premium price for the name worked for me, our business and family. No, we aren't sponsored either. We all looked at Google, but their super duper extra fine print and control over photos, storage and pricing etc was our issue.

    Giving in to the Big names with every flagship is not for me, especially like mentioned before, at their core the phones are primarily identical. I think you just have to look at what works for and what is important to you in a phone. Long story short, we like the OnePlus, and will continue with the brand until the a] discontinue or b] start overpricing/matching Apple and Samsung prices.

      an2sim, 12 Jan 2024Does it have ASHA support? Audio stream for Hearing ads - ASHA.I'm hard of hearing and haven't got an expensive set of hearing aids. But I did find out that phones with bluetooth 5.0 and higher support it, so almost all handsets with the latest bluetooth standard should have ASHA.

      I plan to get a good set of hearing aids with the ASHA support in 2025, and use with the op12 which I will probably buy by the end of this year. I hope this answers your question!

          I paid $1535 AUD for op 12 Silver CN 24GB/1TB here in Australia (delivered to my door).
          Translates to $934.58 Euro or $1022.92 USD (as I type).
          Which is still cheaper then the $1100 USD price for 16GB/512GB offered by GSMArena partner shops. (Even if they are US/Global version)

OnePlus 12 in the EU in my country now has lower price than Pixel 8 Pro 256Gb and S23 Ultra 512GB. OP12 recently with Colors OS China version available now in EU since the global with Oxygen OS gonna be launched later this month or February. If taking photos or more videos than maybe not OP12 no OIS on front, nor on wide camera. It's under 1000 euros while Pixel 8 Pro and S23 Ultra are at 1200-1500. At least by me in the EU. The OP12 1TB storage is like 950 euros.

                Beast and In Cheap rates compared to its price at launch.

                Pixel 8 pro is shit, Op12 can be good. S24U will dig a hole in your pocket.
                That's why S23 Ultra would be best choice without any doubt afterall it was Declared Best All Rounder Flagship Phone of 2023 by almost ALL Tech reviewer

                    I will go with the OP12 - S24Ultra will have a higher price and I won't be using the phone at nearly 80% of it is capacity, flagships today are very expensive. S24Ultra is more common and heavier
                    The Google Pixel has the best design & colours & software + 7 years of updates but his own chipset is not as good as SD
                    The ultra fast charger in the box of OP is very useful, I currently have the OP9 pro (the OP10 was meh at build quality

Not sure about OP12 cameras but the Pixel ranks very high on dxomark (153 points) whereas S23 Ultra is still good, but not crazy good (140 points). I personally wouldn't pick the Pixel for its subpar chipset but since you're not a heavy user it shouldn't be an issue.

                              Providing your phone hardware doesn't fail in a way that you can't flash it back to it's original purchase state.

                                      Probably lose your suppliers hardware warranty once you do.
                                      I think that's why most people seem to be waiting till the 23/Jan for the Global release of the phone.
                                      The CN versions being sold online will more then likely offer the option for Global rom already flashed while still keeping your hardware warranty from the supplier.

                                      Me I went for the CN version now...lol (Silver 24GB/1TB)
                                      I've already blown my sealed box warranty (unlocked the bootloader with no regrets).
