The OnePlus 12 has already debuted in China, offering detailed information about the device. The anticipation for its global introduction in January 2024 is growing. While the OnePlus 12 takes centre stage as the flagship model, OnePlus is preparing to launch the OnePlus 12R on a global scale. This budget-friendly flagship intends to appeal to those looking for a less expensive option without sacrificing performance.
The camera specifications of the OnePlus 12R have been revealed thanks to insider Yogesh Brar’s leak. The primary camera features a 50MP Sony IMX890 sensor with an f/1.8 aperture and a large 1/1.56-inch sensor, as well as optical image stabilization (OIS). Furthermore, the ultrawide angle lens is said to be an 8MP Sony IMX355 with an f/2.2 aperture and a wide 112° field of view. The third camera, a Sony IMX709 with a 32MP sensor and an f/2.0 aperture, offers 2x optical zoom. The primary back camera is supposed to record 4K footage at 60 frames per second.
Previous rumors said that the OnePlus 12R would include a 6.7-inch 120Hz AMOLED display, providing a visually immersive experience. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC powers the gadget, demonstrating that, while not being the most recent, it is still a solid pick for a budget flagship. The phone is also said to include a large 5,500mAh battery and the ease of 100W charging.
Comparisons with its predecessor, the OnePlus 11, indicate some similarities, such as display size and chipset. However, differences emerge in aspects such as the lowered ultrawide sensor and a significantly inferior display, which are compensated for by a bigger battery capacity. The OnePlus 12R is establishing itself as an inexpensive flagship in the premium mid-range category, with its key strength being a deliberate balance of specs.
The OnePlus 12R will make its international debut on January 23, 2023, and it is ready to establish itself as an appealing option in a competitive market. How OnePlus strategically places the smartphone and its subsequent impact on the broader product selection following the OnePlus 12 introduction is still of great interest.
