Every now and then, OnePlus’ next-gen flagship, the OnePlus 12, is leaked and rumored. Its key specifications and even high-quality renders have already been discussed. In China, the flagship is expected to launch in December, which is still a few months away. By the time it launches officially, we will probably see more leaks. New details have been revealed about the upcoming smartphone, correlating with previous reports.
According to Digital Chat Station, a well-known tipster on Weibo, the OnePlus 12 will come with USB 3.2 support. It will be an upgrade over USB-C 2.0 support on the current-generation OnePlus 11 5G. As a result, users will be able to read and write data at a faster rate, which is especially beneficial when moving large files.
The OnePlus 12 is also expected to offer 50W wireless charging. While the OnePlus 11 offers many premium flagship features, it lacks wireless charging. It’s something you don’t find on premium Android flagships, so OnePlus is doing something right.
Camera specs:
According to the tipster, the OnePlus 12 will feature a periscope telephoto camera. Yogesh Brar aka @heyitsyogesh also shared camera specs. In terms of its primary sensor, the OnePlus 12 is said to have a Sony IMX966 with an aperture of f/1.7, an 84-degree field of view, and a 23mm focal length. In addition to the Sony IMX581 wide-angle sensor with f/2.2 aperture, there will also be a 114-degree field of view and a 14mm focal length.
In addition to the first two cameras, a third OmniVision OV64B telephoto sensor would be used with a f/2.5 aperture and a 33-degree field of view. There is a 3X optical zoom, a 6X in-sensor zoom, and a 120X digital zoom. Compared with its predecessor, which could only offer a 2X optical zoom, this is a major upgrade. As reported previously, the leaked camera specifications are in line with what we have seen so far.
According to reports, the OnePlus 12 even has an infrared remote control. The smartphone would be able to control various electronic devices, such as TVs and air conditioners. It is expected to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor since it is a flagship device.
This week, OnePlus will launch a new display in partnership with BOE. The new display is expected to have a 2K resolution and a peak brightness of 3,000 nits. It will debut with the OnePlus 12 and will be the brightest smartphone display. According to reports, it has a 6.7-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. In addition to 100W wired fast charging, the battery could have a capacity of 5,400mAh.
