OnePlus 12 Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
8.0/10
Verdict
The OnePlus 12 continues to embody OnePlus` flagship-killer mantra. It may not focus heavily on generative AI features yet, but it provides a reliable performance, which most regular customers value. For upcoming content creators, some versatile editing tools should help you up your Instagram game. For professional content creators, OnePlus 12 can be a good choice. However, the iPhone 15 Pro and Google Pixel 8 Pro offer more versatile cameras.
Pros
- Vivid display
- Clean Android 14 experience
- Reliable telephoto camera
- Solid battery backup
Cons
- Bulky design
- Average ultra-wide camera
Design and display

As mentioned, the OnePlus 12 looks more or less similar to the OnePlus 11 of last year but thicker. There are a couple of physical upgrades, purely for ergonomic reasons, but these aren't substantial. For instance, the position of the volume buttons and alert slider has been interchanged. The volume buttons also rest above the power button, which is more convenient for me.

One of the biggest updates that the OnePlus 12 incorporates is an upgraded camera system. The rear camera setup now includes a 50MP primary camera with a new Sony LYT-808 image sensor (1/1.4-inch) and a 64MP periscope-style telephoto camera with 3X optical and up to 100x digital zooming. There's also a 48MP ultra-wide camera. The front now includes a 32MP that can capture videos in 4K resolution at 30fps.

The OnePlus 12 comes in two storage variants, with the base model having 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 256GB of UFS 4.0 storage. The unit I am reviewing comes configured with 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage, priced at Rs 69,999. As mentioned, the OnePlus 12 draws power from Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC.

To support all the new features, the OnePlus 12 now houses a bigger 5,400mAh battery. In a nutshell, the OnePlus offers an excellent battery life. With performance mode enabled, the highest screen resolution and refresh rate, and heavy gaming, the OnePlus 12 easily lasted for 12 hours. Toning down on these settings will easily fetch a longer battery life.
