On the afternoon of December 5, OnePlus in shenzhen held a new conference with the theme of "ten years of flagship, beyond the work", OnePlus 12 Smartphone officially meet with us. The first domestic oriental screen, equipped with Hasselblad full focal length ultra-light shadow image, the third generation of Snapdragon 8 support, the new upgraded bionic vibration motor and so on, let OnePlus 12 all aspects of the configuration are full, after the release has also become the focus of netizens' discussion. As a ten-year flagship, can it surpass its predecessors and stand out again in the sea of machines? The following follow our lens, live experience of this ten-year work.
Texture, in OnePlus every generation of products have never been missing. OnePlus 12 is no exception, it adopts the "TI-ME Design" design language, the rear DECO adopts a design similar to high-end wristwatches, incorporating elements such as "crown watch mirror", "starry sky dial", "time scale", and so on, and the overall look is more refined.
OnePlus 12 has three colour schemes: "White", "Pale Green" and "Rock Black", of which the "White" colour scheme is made of a new generation of ceramic glass, which, together with the smooth transition of the bezel, makes the whole machine feel good in the hand. It is worth mentioning that the "White" colour scheme is not just pure white, but also has a pearl white feel to the naked eye, and the overall look is still very textured.
The new "Pale Green" colour scheme is the most special of the three, it is built using a new generation of stacked glass technology, presenting a different texture on the frosted texture of the back cover, just like layered mountain peaks. The rear image module design of the "Pale Green" version is also different from the other two colourways, with the texture of the back cover of the body continuing into the module for a more unified overall look.
The "Rock Black" is the classic OnePlus Silk Glass, and with the new process, the overall feel is smoother and more delicate. Although the overall design of OnePlus 12 is not amazing, after all, in the OnePlus recent models have continued this design language. But in the new process, OnePlus 12 overall texture performance is still good. I wonder which of the "White", "Pale Green" and "Rock Black" colour schemes the partners in front of the screen prefer?
In terms of imaging, the OnePlus 12 is equipped with a triple-camera combination of a 50-megapixel main camera (LYT-808 sensor) + a 64-megapixel super-light periscope telephoto + a 48-megapixel ultra wide-angle. In addition to the outstanding hardware, the OnePlus 12 also fully inherits the OPPO Find series computational photography capabilities, equipped with a new generation of Ultra Luminous Shadow image engine. Specific image capabilities, please pay attention to our subsequent detailed review.
On the front of the body, OnePlus 12 carries a 6.82-inch flexible OLED oriental screen with a resolution of 3216*1440, supporting 120Hz LTPO3.0 screen refresh rate, and the screen full-screen excitation brightness reaches 1600nit.
According to the official introduction, OnePlus 12 on this screen is the first domestic DisplayMate A + 2K screen, and refresh the DisplayMate A + 18 records, in clarity, colour accuracy, colour bias and other dimensions have beyond the industry performance.
Performance has always been a strong point of OnePlus, OnePlus 12 adopts the third generation Snapdragon 8 processor + LPDDR5X + UFS4.0 performance iron triangle combination, with up to 24GB + 1TB storage combination. With the supercomputing platform and the aerospace-grade Skyworks cooling system, it is believed that the whole machine will have a good performance release.
In other aspects, OnePlus 12 has a built-in 5400mAh battery and supports 100W wired charging and 50W wireless charging. OnePlus 12 is also equipped with a new bionic vibration motor Turbo, multi-function NFC, full-function infrared remote control and so on.
On-site experience down, OnePlus 12 overall give me a good feeling. As the work of the decade, there are a lot of improvements in terms of craftsmanship, image, performance and detailed experience. Although it does not have the "Pro" suffix on its name, it is undoubtedly a "Pro" level product under the current stage of OnePlus. Back to the previous article, can it surpass its predecessor? Obviously, we can't say, and neither can OnePlus itself, and it still needs to go through the market's verification. But as far as the price and its product power are concerned, the OnePlus 12 has already taken shape as a tide in a sea of machines.
