    Got the full 12 myself. But it was tough to make the decision not to get the 12R for that price. Camera isn't a huge deal to me. That camera (12R) is on par or better than my Note9. Which is all i need. Love the 12 though. It's camera is excellent.

    I truly understand and appreciate what 1 + has done this year. They've done away with terms such as Pro, Plus and Ultra and they're moving forward with a much simpler classification system. Moving forward, the numbered models will be the flagship and the R versions will be the scale down regular variance. Of course, you could tell they were taking steps towards this by calling last year's flagship the 11. Although, for whatever reason they didn't release the 11R globally. At least, the R variance are here now.

    I'm considering upgrading from oneplus 10T and this has basically the same specs,except higher battery than my 10T (which was criminally underrated is actually a great phone except for the fact that got ran over by a car and the screen is cracked but it still works fine)..biggest difference between the 12R in the 12 that I see is the wireless charging which I don't care about anyway.. I'm not an avid photographer just need a good enough camera to take social media pics and it's crazy how much this phone and my 10t keeps up with only a 8 megapixel ultra wide and no telephoto. and I actually love the macro camera because it helps me read fine print on things like chargers, exercise equipment and otherelectronics.. I have a 125 watt charger with the 10T and I wonder if it will have this phone charging at 100w instead of 80w u.s. standard

    I'm still on the Oneplus 7 pro. looking to upgrade, saw the 12R and loving the color over the regular 12 green. I'm waiting for the 13 and/or 13R to come out to see if any significant upgrades are made and if not, then I'm just gonna bite and buy the 12R. It's damn good deal and a big enough jump from the 7 pro for me. I was really just holding out for another new phone to have the same hidden selfie camera as the 7 pro does but no luck. thoughts?

    I think the OnePlus 12R is the best "midrange" phone to get in 2024 I've had 2 OnePlus phones in the past and they lasted about 4 years. I can't say that about my Samsung phones as of yet, I really enjoyed the new skin on OnePlus phones as well. I think this is a good grab for the money. I wouldn't get the Samsung FE now that this phone is out or the pixel 8 pro but that's just my thoughts.

    Macro camera instead of telephoto camera is silly. Ultrawide or telephoto camera can double as macro camera. I also prefer flat side panels like that of Xiaomi 14 or Apple 15 series or Samsung galaxy s24 series. But design is subjective so it's understandable.

  • @Megatron-sl5us
    @Megatron-sl5us 3 місяці тому +3

    CNET dislikes Oneplus like they do with Moto. They recommend Apple, Samsung and Google, however they want consumers to buy the Apple Max or Plus, Any Google Pixel phone, Samsung Galaxy Plus and Ultra because they offer 5 to 7 years of OS updates, 5 or more years of security patches, have great pictures and video, and wireless recharging. Which is why I would never buy any of them. Why should I have to spend up to 1k to buy a high-end phone? What I like about Oneplus is now they're offering the R class in America, which is much less but offers a great experience. Granted that this phone offers 3 years of OS updates and 4 years of security patches, but I prefer to buy phones every 3 to 4 years instead of holding to one phone for five or more years. Also, Moto and Oneplus tend to lower their prices all the time.

    Correction at 2:45 and Admission by OnePlus themselves - 128 and 256 both are UFS 3.1.
    They have scammed the buyers and are offering full refund in India.

    This is the perfect phone for me! I rarely uses phone camera (since I own a sony camera lol) and I always feel that the wireless charge is somewhat of a gimmick .. like why would you slowly charge your phone with wireless when u can fast charge with wire? lazyness? lol

    So I guess OP11 is a better option for a similar price, but all depends on what is the price of it and 12R in your region 🤔

      The OnePlus 11 is about $200 more in the US. The OnePlus 12r has a super cool cooling system in it too. It has the same as the 12.

    12R has only ip64 . Such a mistake was unlikely from GSMarena.

    700e for this phone in Europe is not worth it. Let's see what prices giztop comes with.
