OnePlus 12 design (expected)

  • As per the live images, video, and renders, we know the OnePlus 12 could follow the design language of its predecessor but with some small changes. One obvious difference is that the colour within the camera island matches the rest of the back panel. 
  • The camera panel is still round, big, and slightly protruding while also flushed to the left frame. 
  • We have seen the phone in three colours viz Green, Black, and White.
  • On the front, it is the same old hole-punch cutout in the centre.
  • The edges are a tad curved. On the right side, we have the power button and the alert slider. The slider has been placed here as beneath the other side lies the gaming antennas. The other side has the volume rockers though.
  • On the bottom lies a speaker grille, a mic, and a USB-C socket. Another mic hole is up top.

  • Display: The phone is expected to bring a 6.82-inch AMOLED panel with a 2K resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, up to 4,500 nits of brightness, and 2,160Hz PWM Dimming. OnePlus boasts that the phone has got DisplayMate A+ certification.

  • Processor: Inside, we have Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC taking care of the performance. It has reportedly managed the highest AnTuTu score too.
