As promised, OnePlus officially unveiled the OnePlus 12 on the afternoon of December 5th in the Chinese market (Vietnam time). This phone boasts powerful hardware configurations and a design similar to its predecessor.

Regarding the overall design, the OnePlus 12 shares many similarities with the previous generation, but the notification slider has been moved from the right edge to the left edge. According to OnePlus, the purpose of this slider movement is to make room for the new integrated antenna strip (which improves signal performance and reduces latency during gaming). The optimal position for the gaming antenna is between the user's index fingers when holding the phone horizontally.

- Rear Cameras: 50 MP + 48 MP + 64 MP.
- Front Camera: 32 MP.
- Battery: 5,400 mAh, supports 100 W wired fast charging, 50 W wireless fast charging.


As seen above, the OnePlus 12 is equipped with the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip from Qualcomm. This is the latest processor from Qualcomm as of now, built on a 4nm process with 8 cores clocked up to 3.3 GHz. It also includes a new Adreno GPU core, delivering up to 30% improved performance and a 25% increase in image processing capability compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. This can be considered the most significant upgrade over the previous generation.

Because the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip has received a lot of early praise from users for its incredibly powerful performance, high stability, and cool operation even during long sessions of heavy gaming. Additionally, the OnePlus 12 is equipped with a sophisticated VC cooling system to ensure smoother operation. Therefore, the OnePlus 12 fully meets the needs of users without encountering any difficulties.

OnePlus 12's Officially Confirmed Specs, Many Worthwhile Upgrades (Updated: 11/10)
According to information from GSMArena, OnePlus 12 is set to debut in the Chinese market soon. Consequently, OnePlus has posted teaser images revealing the specifications of this flagship model on the Weibo social media platform. The highlight is the Sony LYT-808 image sensor and the exceptional display.

Multiple sources have previously revealed that the brand-new Sony LYT-808 image sensor will be equipped on the OnePlus 12. Now, the teaser images posted by OnePlus have officially confirmed this. The LYT image sensor was developed through a collaboration between OnePlus and Sony.

According to OnePlus, the main camera on the OnePlus 12 will be the best in its segment, featuring a combination of a 64 MP 1/2.0-inch sensor and a telephoto lens. The new telephoto lens is manufactured using advanced processes to enhance shooting capabilities, and marketing-wise, it's being referred to as the 'visionary lens.' This visionary lens promises to deliver a zoom range further than the standard 3x.

The camera of OnePlus 12 is likely to be fine-tuned by Hasselblad and will utilize OPPO's HDR technology along with portrait image processing technologies to enhance image quality.

OnePlus 12 is the first phone to feature the highest-grade Sony sensor (updated: 1/11)
OnePlus is expected to unveil the OnePlus 12 in November 2023 in China. Speculations suggest that the device will deliver a top-notch camera experience. According to information cited from TheTechOutlook, OnePlus has officially announced that the OnePlus 12 will be the world's first device equipped with the premium Sony LYTIA image sensor.

Previously, Sony's LYTIA image sensor brand collaborated with OPPO to introduce the LYT-T808 image sensor with dual-layer pixel transistor technology. This camera sensor made its debut on the OPPO Find N3 foldable smartphone, and OnePlus Open was announced in October 2023. Several tech leakers, including Digital Chat Station, have shared that the 52 MP Sony LYT-T808 lens will be the main camera sensor on the OnePlus 12. Li Jie, President of OnePlus China, emphasized that the OnePlus 12 camera not only integrates Sony sensors but also combines Snapdragon technology and enhancements from Hasselblad.

Reports have indicated that the rear camera of the OnePlus 12 will feature a wide-angle camera using the 48 MP Sony IMX581 sensor and a telephoto camera with the OmniVision OV64B 64 MP prospective lens, supporting 3X optical zoom. Additionally, this phone may be equipped with a 32 MP selfie camera.

OnePlus 12 features standout 48 MP camera configuration, premium 'Dragon' chip
In the latest article on Gadgets Now, sources reveal that the OnePlus 12 will be equipped with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 888 chip. This is one of the chips in the Snapdragon 8 series that has made waves in the market for its powerful performance, although it is slightly lower compared to its counterparts such as Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 or Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 later on. Therefore, based on the timeline, I personally believe that the OnePlus 12 will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip.

Equipping the OnePlus 12 with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip also enables the device to perform powerfully and handle various tasks effortlessly. Moreover, having the most powerful chip at that time will make the OnePlus 12 a more formidable competitor compared to other products in the same segment.

Sources also indicate that the OnePlus 12 will be equipped with 8 GB of RAM to enable multitasking and enhanced performance. However, most other products in the same segment are supported by an additional 12 GB of RAM, so I hope that when the OnePlus 12 is launched, it will also be supported by an additional 12 GB of RAM to perform more powerfully. Additionally, the device will have either 128 GB or 256 GB of internal storage to provide ample storage space for users.

Based on current leaks, the specific specifications of the OnePlus 12 are as follows:
- Display: 6.7-inch OLED panel.
- CPU: Snapdragon 888 (could be Snapdragon 8 Gen 3).
- RAM: 8 GB.
- Internal Storage: 128 GB or 256 GB.
- Rear Camera: 48 MP + 50 MP + 8 MP.
- Front Camera: 32 MP.
- Battery: 5,000 mAh, with fast charging support.
What's new with the OnePlus 12? A 5,000 mAh battery along with a 6.7-inch OLED display
Not only does it boast powerful performance, but according to 91mobiles, the OnePlus 12 will also be powered by a 5,000 mAh battery. This is a fairly good capacity and is currently favored by smartphone manufacturers as it can meet both the criteria of slim and lightweight design and good usage duration for basic tasks throughout the day.

The source also reveals that the OnePlus 12 will feature fast charging support, allowing users to save time charging the device. However, the exact fast charging power of the OnePlus 12 has not been disclosed at the current time, but it's highly likely that the OnePlus 12 series will be equipped with 80 W fast charging, similar to the previous OnePlus 10 Pro generation. With this setup, according to OnePlus, we only need to wait about 32 minutes for the device to be fully charged, and wireless charging will take just 47 minutes!

Additionally, the sources also indicate that the OnePlus 12 will have a good display with a 6.7-inch OLED screen and deliver images with Full HD+ resolution. These are sufficient screen specifications to provide good visual experiences for users. However, personally, I expect these specifications to be even higher, such as using an AMOLED panel and outputting images with 2K+ resolution.
How much will the OnePlus 12 cost? When will the OnePlus 12 be released?
As of now, the price and release date of the OnePlus 12 are still not specified. However, based on the leaked specifications, it's highly likely that the OnePlus 12 will be launched in early 2023 with a price ranging from 16 to 17 million VND. All the information provided above is just initial leaks and my personal speculation, so stay updated with the latest information about the OnePlus 12 on the 24h Technology page!
