glitchyy, 01 Feb 2024Should I get this or Samsung s23 ultra ??S23 Ultra is more serious phone

    With the Snapdragon 8 gen 3 allowing a strong generative AI a lot of phones are making use of it, of course it looks amazing because it has a lot of information to work with, but I guess some brands don't really give too much importance.

      It would have been a perfect phone if
      1. Ut wasn't as bulky as it is now. May be about 6.5inch display with under 160cm height
      2. No curved display as it is only a fancy one that reduces longevity and usability.
      3. A better design for the back of the phone and the camera island.


      The renadged colour os is a disappointment but the other three mentioned above are deal-breakers

            Why must they continue to make phones so slippery. Some of us don't like cases. I'll buy a new phone if I break it

              6.8 is a good size in my opinion...the gripe I have is why curve the screen when tempered glass protectors are impossible to fit to them? I am struggling to find a curved tempered glass protector for my Xiaomi Mi 11 and I was considering buying this phone but have decided against it solely due to this problem if anyone has found a solution, I would love to hear about it.

                    Why does the screen keep getting bigger? What good does that do to ease of handling or battery performance? If I want a tab I'll buy a tab. They don't even make functional pockets for women yet. How are we supposed to use this phone?

                      Make a smaller phone for Christ sake. 6.8? This is ugly big.

                              Your Geekbench 6 benchmark results are wrong. Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 cannot score less that 8 Gen 2 and awful Google Tensor. Please fix it

                                Aierlan, 25 Jan 2024I've bought two phones that had lens flaws in the past... moreMy Nokia N8 had a small blurry area somewhere in the frame (forgot where), could easily be seen. I didn't return that phone since the blurry area was very small (not like third of the frame like with the Oneplus 12 tele camera).

                                Out of all my Samsungs it hasn't happened yet. S4 Mini, S6, S8+, Note 10, S22 and S23 Ultra. No lens defects in 6 phones. Quite good. Also no other defects on any of those 6 phones. Had an LG V30 between S8+ and Note 10, it had a defective selfie camera. It was a fix focus lens but was focused was somewhere up in the roof like 2-3 meters from the phone. Rarely take selfies but I had it serviced so it wouldn't affect resale value when I sold it.

                                It's a good idea to test all lenses these days because one phone have so many cameras.

                                  In the video "4K 2160p 30fps (telephoto camera, 3x) - OnePlus 12 low-light video sample" you can see the internal reflections of the bright headlights floating across the top of the screen.

                                  I dislike that a lot, and there's no reason to believe that it (internal lens reflections) doesn't occur during the daylight videos; just that it's more difficult to see.

                                  That ruins an otherwise excellent nighttime performance.

                                    I love Chinese e waste phones with flashy spec and 3 years of "updates" that does almost nothing. I wonder if my city is still in the middle of the ocean on Xiaomi's world clock map.

                                      It's unbelievable that in 2024 there are still such extreme differences when it comes to demosaicing Quad Bayer Sensors. The difference at 2x between the OnePlus 12 and Vivo X100 Pro is huge even though both main cameras deliver the same number of pixels per object.
                                      The demosaicing algorithm of the Oneplus 12 at 2x is one of the worst Quad Bayer demosaicing algorithms I have seen, though I have seen other bad results some years ago.
                                      It shows again that the color filter array can have a huge impact on the image quality, if the manufacturer doesn't have the right algorithms.

                                        Aierlan, 26 Jan 2024This screen is definitely better than the ones on the Vivo ... moreahh yeah exactly man, I'm thinking it's a software thing like there have been a few Find X7 Ultra comparisons online but that phone got a huge update for basically everything recently. So I'm guessing Oneplus needs an update too. Vivo got an update for 4k selfie vids. Seems like BBK kind of rushed their products.
