I have not had a problem with the phone. First week with it, the only thing I can stress is remember the R when purchasing accessories. I don't recall if I picked the case due to it being suggested or if I found a case separately. What I can say is the case I have doesn't cover the cameras as well as it would, and the power button doesn't sit well in the fitting on the case. I reviewed my orders and saw the case was for a OnePlus 12 and not a OnePlus 12R. That being said, it was probably my fault and I ordered a new 12R case and will eat the loss on the first case. Not a big deal. Battery drains significantly faster than my previous phone, but it was a powerhouse (Ulefone Power Armor 18T), so my basis for comparison is quite a bit larger/longer lasting. The processing power and speed is way up from the Ulefone though. Ultimately happy with my purchase. This phone is wafer thin and insanely light compared to the Ulefone as well. I do kinda miss the heft and insanely bright torch!
I think Chinese phones are hidden and affordable gems in the US market. This phone is cool looking and super fast. The battery life beats my Pixel 7a by a mile. I'm on frequent video calls and I have up to 35% battery left when I sleep! It doesn't heat up a fast as my pixel. The screen is super smooth (I like the rounded edges for scrolling with a tempered glass cover). There are two physical sim slots I can put my overseas sim in along with my Tmobile SIM. Because so few phones are esim compatible if you travel alot two physical sims is a must. My Tmobile connection is fine on this phone. Two issues so far only:1) fingerprint reader is not great (maybe it is my tempered glass)2) no as waterproof as I would like
The phone is great value and good quality. My text app is glitchy...some issue btwn the phone and the app, otherwise very satisfied.
Having used the OnePlus 12R for the past four months, I can confidently say it offers excellent value for users looking for a powerful and long-lasting smartphone without breaking the bank. Here's a closer look at its strengths and weaknesses:Pros: Excellent Battery Life: The 5500mAh battery is truly impressive. On moderate usage, you can easily get a full day or even two on a single charge. Blazing-Fast Charging: The 100W SUPERVOOC charging is incredibly fast. You can go from near empty to a full charge in about 26 minutes, according to OnePlus. Powerful Performance: The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, paired with 16GB of RAM in this configuration, delivers smooth performance for everyday tasks and even demanding games. Great Display: The 6.78-inch 120Hz ProXDR display is bright, clear, and responsive, making it a joy to use for watching videos, browsing the web, or gaming. Large Storage: With 256GB of storage, you have ample space for apps, photos, videos, and other files.Cons: No Wireless Charging: This might be a dealbreaker for some users who have grown accustomed to the convenience of wireless charging. Uninspiring Design: The design leans toward the generic side and doesn't offer the same level of flair as some other flagship phones. Lacks Versatility in Cameras: While the 50MP main sensor takes decent photos, the overall camera system isn't as versatile as some competitors, lacking a telephoto lens and offering only a basic ultrawide sensor. Software Update Concerns: OnePlus offers only two years of software updates for the 12R, which is less than what some other manufacturers provide.
I bought the OnePlus 12R after my Pixel 6 Pro's screen broke. It was well before it was paid off, so I really appreciated the fact that the 12R was only 529 bucks for the 16GB model. I have the One Plus Pad, and ear buds so I knew they are a quality company, but was a little nervous about buying a mid-range Android phone. After a lot of YouTube reviews being watched, and the alternatives not looking too good, I took the leap. It is an amazing phone. The only thing not so amazing is the rear camera. But for doing music, games, work stuff, and even watching videos it is a beast. It lasts for easily 1.5 days on a charge. With the included charger it charges really fast too.
The wifes phone being 4 years old wasn't cutting the mustard to say. Battery was shot so it was time to retire the note 20. I opted to get her this model. I own the 12 she didn't want the giantic screen. So the 12r was the same size as her old note.Without me going after a day or two. Actually a whole week, she flat said the battery lasts all day, pictures are 10x better and it charges in like two seconds. And everything is just faster. She has been super impressed with it.Owning now the 12 (me) and 12r (her). You honestly can't go wrong.If you asked me whats the biggest difference is of the two the 12 camera is far better. BUT the 12R can hold it's own and takes amazing shots. The detail and saturation is wonderfull. She even took some video at our son track meet. Said I can't belive how clear the video is and you can here all the sounds. And on a personal side note here the 12r is superrrr easy when it comes to shots and video recording. Can I tell the speed difference in the two nope they are both just as fast.If this is what the one plus has to offer and these hold up ill stick with one plus phones.And the os system is little different but my wife is not a tech person at all. She figured the thing out pretty quick which surprised me and even our teenage son. Ha!!So if your one the fence buy one. In a nut shell you get more bang for your buck.Oh and she's loves the alert slider and finger print sensor.Guys these phones are bad a**
Long time Android phone user, but I never used one with 16GB RAM. This phone was over-budget and too high a spec for what I do on a phone, but I'm glad I bought this. No sluggishness (again I don't do much), and very stable, with pretty good battery performance. Hopefully they provide Android 15/16 upgrade. Then I think I'll still be happy 3 years down. Let's see...
This is my second phone after initially purchasing the Redmi Note 13 Pro after many hours of phone research. I ended up having to return the Xiaomi because MIUI was so awful. The dealbreaker for me was the inability to use gestures w/ third party launchers.Anyway, as for this phone. The phone is snappy, launching apps and switching between apps is utterly seamless. The camera is solid, and Oxygen OS, unlike MIUI, actually looks like something designed for an adult rather than a child with ADHD. The only SLIGHT downside is the fingerprint reader can fail a bit too often. Maybe it's because I have a cut on my finger and tend to come at it from odd angles. It usually has no issues when you place your finger dead-on. The other slight downside for some would be the lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack. I personally avoid wireless headsets because EMF isn't great for you, so this was a bit of a downside for me, however, I simply bought a cheap 3.5mm to USB-C adapter and problem solved.UPDATE 4/2/24: I'm on my 2nd OnePlus 12R after returning the first one due to it randomly crashing and restarting while driving. The replacement is doing the exact same behavior. This is inexcusable and makes the phone unusable. I just can't have a phone that will randomly restart on me without warning. Too dangerous and frustrating. Oneplus dropped the ball big time. The sad part is, this is probably an easy bug fix, but who knows when they'll fix this... No thanks. Will have to go elsewhere.
