Sort by:

From vietnam, I have used oneplus 12 for 3 week. I buy with the price 650$. Camera is good, especially portrait. Oxygen os is quite so so. It's better than oneplus 11

    All in all, a really mediocre device for 1000€ in Europe.
    Skip it
    Not worth it

        Maria, 24 Jan 2024Excuse me, GSMArena, I like to remind you: I think you hav... moreThere is no competition at their price range

          As other have said the review is a bit dry.. the software side of the review completely missed the X7 chipset inside the smartphone that helps with gaming/ GPU

          Pixel works x7 had the adaptive frame booster and hyper resolution options in the game menu hub...

          Sometimes gsmarena review format is too rigid/ formulaic to pay attention to some newer stuff

            CamoGeko-XDA, 23 Jan 2024I don't think this device is priced competitively at a... moreThat's a Chinese phone though with a pretty useless 2x telephoto with poor quality sensor and no OIS that is not much better than a 2x crop from the main sensor. The ultrawide is also using a very old omnivision sensor that was used as far back as the k30 pro four years ago. Also, if importing to Europe the k70 pro doesn't support key European bands so it's not a great option for Europe. You could also make the same argument for importing the Oneplus 12 for much cheaper if you really want and the Chinese Oneplus 12 supports all European bands so the signal would be more stable. In fact if you want to import you have loads of options. The global price is not cheap but it is competitive and in line with other brands like Xiaomi and Samsung

              🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

              Looks like Oppo is paying Nokia to be able to sell in some parts of Europe again.

                Excuse me, GSMArena, I like to remind you:
                I think you have to get S24Ultra as alternative, competitor, whatever of OP12 because I knew more than one out there are supporter of OP12 and comparing this with S24Ultra.

                  Nick Tegrataker, 24 Jan 2024Just because OP12's main sensor's pixel pitch mat... moreOpen and Xperia also are 1.12 micron. Not OP11, 890/766 are 1.0.
                  That is my point.
                  They claim 808 and T808 are "twins".

                    justasmile, 24 Jan 2024$799 is quite good though.Lets just say that Oneplus12 pricing is better in the US than in Europe.
                    And in the US, i am not sure how many will spend that much money for Oneplus compared to Apple or Samsung.
                    Even Motorola is more popular in the US if i remember right.

                      Nick Tegrataker, 24 Jan 2024Yeah, GSMArena not mentioning the Master Mode is definitely... moreAt most gonna mention values of shutter and iso possible.
                      Do not expect any samples.

                          CamoGeko-XDA, 23 Jan 2024I don't think this device is priced competitively at a... moreHalf the price, half the cameras, half the display. Surely you can't get a phone at this level with $400.

                            Anonymous, 23 Jan 2024Extremely overpriced. Worst photos take by LYT-808!My buddy is blind 💀

                              Alex, 23 Jan 2024The lack of real water resistance is a shame for a flagship... moreThere is no 'real water resistance'. It's only non-water resistant, or water-resistant, which this phone is (IPX5)

                                It's honestly a work of art.

                                  Anonymous, 24 Jan 2024Pixel pitch of 1.12 matches 789 and 888. If OnePlus/Oppo ... moreJust because OP12's main sensor's pixel pitch matches the one on OP11, that doesn't mean it's been confirmed that they are using the sensor with the same resolution as the predecessor, too.

                                      Nick Tegrataker, 24 Jan 2024We'll have to wait for either a confirmation from OneP... morePixel pitch of 1.12 matches 789 and 888.
                                      If OnePlus/Oppo claim 808 and T808 are equal, then both share all specs except dual layer and T808 is not 2x2 ocl.

                                      Many comments on weibo about it being based on 789.

                                      DCS earlier : " The iPhone 16 Pro Max is a flagship imaging generation. The 48Mp IMX903 custom main camera hardware is very powerful. The 1/1.14" super outsole is equipped with double-layer transistors and is equipped with 14Bit ADC and DCG"

                                        Alex, 23 Jan 2024The lack of real water resistance is a shame for a flagship... moreI dont think everything else is on top.

                                        Check the speaker loudness or the max display brightness test.
                                        Even in cameras, its nowhere close on top.

                                        Oneplus is strong in battery(although very poor while gaming for some reason)and fast charging(alert slider and IR blaster nice bonuses)and thats it.
