    Same way some cheap phones with 8mp outout 12mp.

    LYT808 is successor of imx789. Its effective res is 48 as well.
    Physically unable to use more than 48.

    Was not supposed to be 12.5/50

Some reviewers have it on par with other SD8G3 phones, but GSMA isn't the only one that saw unusually low scores with Geekbench 6:

          is it just me thinking OnePlus will sell much more phones if making them with a flat display?

            The lack of real water resistance is a shame for a flagship but why such a low score when everything else is on top?

              Anonymous, 23 Jan 2024You cant really compare them like that. When op11 16/256 ca... moreThe 12gb 256gb version of the Oneplus 12 is the base version and is not €1049. The top version of the Oneplus 12 is the 16gb 512gb version. In France and Spain the initial sales price for the top 16gb 512gb version is €999.

                That's the smartphone I've been waiting for. Excellent battery life, bright and crisp display, fast and responsive UI, versatile cameras. Thanks for the review, I was waiting for it to make sure that would be a great choice for me. :)

                      Some of us would appreciate if you'd test the PWM values, instead of just citing them. And call quality, that's also lacking.:)

                        Aierlan, 23 Jan 2024The pricing is not much different than the previous generat... moreAnd inflation.

                          Anonymous, 23 Jan 2024For some reason, OP and Realme are doing upscale. If other... moreYeah, the 50MP mode on Oppo is still a simple upscale from 12.5MP resolution, unfortunately. 2x shots are a proper centre crop from the full resolution so it's technically still 12.5MP, but because of the 2x2 OCL design of the sensors they use, the level of detail is very low and suffers from a lot of wormy artifacts (Commonly seen on many phones that use IMX766 that also has 2x2 OCL).

                          Personally, I would say OnePlus 12's camera setup is a marked improvement from OnePlus 11 - less sharpening, less noise, overall better retention of details both during the day and night, a more neutral colour palette etc. X100 Pro and Find X7 Ultra set the bar *extremely* high in every single aspect though, and while OP12 still performs well in this regard, it's absolutely no match against the other two BBK flagship phones.

                            Expected better results in the camera, why would they put a quad bayer 32mp in a 1k phone ? even samsung mid rangers have better sensors.

                              LoneOwl, 23 Jan 2024In my country from the official Oneplus store, its 80euro m... moreYes, last year's 256gb version had more ram. It was 919 euro though at launch based on the official Oneplus launch price (not current prices). For example, in larger European countries like Spain, Italy and France that was last year's launch price on the Oneplus website. Of course it's possible that in some European countries they could have charged a different price but that was the official European launch price they quoted at the launch last year

                                  Snap8gen3 devices in general on geekbench have over 2000 on single score and around 7000+ in multiscore(S24Ultra gets around 7200)

                                        I have held one, albeit the Chinese variant and if your talking about photos it teaches Apple exactly how it should be done.
