Honestly my favourite phone! Last time I felt this good about a phone was the Huawei P30 Pro.
Are the cameras better then the p30 pro you would say?
I agree. I recommend the 30 pro to a lot of people and does with this one to. It's a great phone altogether! 😊
@@HV55VN for sure 👌🏼 the camera are up there with the Samsung S24 Ultra and IPhone. My wife has the iPhone 13 Pro Max and my brother has the S24 Ultra so that's how I know.
@@jonnycarlson9555 you know your stuff 😎 I do the same lol
@@2ru2pacFan i agree with you i had p30 pro before and in 2024 i changed to s24 ultra what a wrong decision :( can you compare oneplus 12 to s24 ultra as iam thinking to do the switch. thanks
Picked up a OnePlus 12 2 monthly ago, hands down the best phone to date I've owned! Switched from Samsung user, now definitely staying with OnePlus!!
I went with the open from fold 4 and same here, don't think I'm going back anytime soon I love the open
Hubby has the OP12 & loves it. But it has one issue - apps sometimes randomly close when he's typing a message in Gmail, WhatsApp, messenger etc. He bought it from Wonda (Global Version). Anyone else have this issue & know how to fix it please?
@@jodaniel2361I wonder if it's worth trying a different keyboard?
@@jodaniel2361 Perhaps he's using battery saver mode or maybe he turned on the battery optimisation?
@@jodaniel2361 I've not experienced this. Hopefully they fix that in the next update. I've been with OnePlus for many years and the update process can be a bit slow.
I’m so glad that other phones haven’t started adopting the ONLY ESIM feature that Apple has…this phone is a gem of a phone , great battery life, beautiful screen and Super smooth UI
YOU SHOULD DO 2ND CHANCE VIDEOS MORE OFTEN IM SOLD❤
Think i will!
Anakin you are my favorite CZcamsr!!!
@@AverageDadOfficialSomeone said honor got an update that fixed zoom quality, could you retest zoom?
I unboxed my OnePlus 12 today. It's my 3rd OnePlus.
I find myself using the op12 more than my s24u. I just prefer the display and the charging speed is a game changer for me. the form factor and looks are unusually pleasing. I really like the weight and feel of the op12 especially with the sandstone case. The case's grip is unique and gives u confidence. It looks cool too😄
It comes with the 100w charger in the box unlike Samsung 😉
i was one of those people who was loyal to known brands like Samsung until it hits me and realize there is other brands who give same spec and sometimes even better specs with much better price and they even include charger in the box and at that moment i left the known brand matrix forever.
same
I was about to purchase a samsung S24, but Oneplus 12 changed my decision, had 2 say it is impressive 🙌
Also...IR blaster for the win. Love being able to shut down my devices before heading off to bed with my phone. I took for granted just how great IR blasters are until they went away on most devices.
I'm an iPhone user back to the 3G early days, but I'm becoming bored with the iOS lineup's incremental updates. So early this year I pre-ordered the OnePlus 12 at a great introductory price here in Canada. I used the phone for three months, working my way through the transition from iOS to Android, and found it really wasn't a big issue to make the swap between ecosystems. Ultimately, I decided to return to my beloved iPhone 13 Pro, since it was just easier and more familiar, but here I am later in the year regretting selling the OnePlus 12. I got a good price when I sold the OnePlus 12, so it would only cost me about CA$150 to buy back in...and your review has fuelled that notion!
2:13 The OnePlus 12 has 2,160Hz PWM dimming, the Honor Magic 6 Pro has 4,320Hz PWM dimming, and the midrange Honor 90 is not that far off at 3,840Hz.
totally agree. People are just stupid. Had 8 Pro, 11 and now 12 and happy with it. Never had any Samsung,just because it's ovepriced IMO and they don't even provide a charging brick for that price. Also had a Pixel 7 Pro, but tensor is junk, battery life sucks big time.
I can confirm this phone is a beast. So many good things about it. Special mention to the camera.
I was able to get it because Amazon offered 12 monthly payments with no interest. So I can keep my cheap SIM only deal going. Although everyone needs to be aware of CEX (in the UK). The 512gb version is £775, but unsurprisingly not many people trading them in.
I will say the one flaw I've noticed with this phone and I'm really picking. Is the scrolling/swiping up and down on menus (that can be on Facebook, other apps or system menus) seems heavy needing a really large swipe to get it moving. It's worse than my OnePlus 8pro. Hopefully, it will be improved with future updates.
Great to see you've come back to this device. I look forward to your thoughts in a couple weeks.
For me I can't see ever needing to upgrade this phone. It's just that good.
Hello mate! I'm writing from op 8 pro, do you think it's worth updating to 12? What's your opinion? Thank you
@@addsfsds I think it's worth it as there were a couple things that just weren't good enough for me on my OnePlus 8pro. The OnePlus 12 has finally just polished all the little annoyances and is just so quick at everything and works. (Apart from Google messages sending 3 text messages when I've just sent once, but luckily don't really use texts any more). I doubt I will ever upgrade this phone as I can't see it needing to get better than this.
I was on the fence between the OP 12 and the Z60 Ultra, both 16gb ram and 512gb storage. They can be had for $750 each in the USA. Any strong opinion on that decision?
I lean towards OP12 because of the significantly better selfie cam for video calls with family. I have been burned by my Pixels too many times with bad cell and internet signal.
Thank you for giving this a 2nd chance. I'm torn between this and the vivo X100 pro. Similar specs but I guess it come down to the cameras. Which one do you feel has the better one?
I have the Vivo, hubby has the OP12. I also previously had the OP Open so have experienced of OP's OS. We've done some camera comparisons and while the Vivo is better in some situations, the OP is somehow easier to use, both as a camera & phone in general (guess it could just be my preference too). Funtouch OS on the Vivo global version is dire, feels basic, dated & clunky, I have to use a launcher. Whereas OP's OS feels premium out of the box. If I was spending my money again, I'd go for the OP12. The OP camera is awesome and I just prefer it as a phone experience in general. Hope this helps.
@jodaniel2361 Thanks alot for clearing my confusion. Now I can buy OP+12 on closed eyes.
I have the OP 12. I love using it❤. Great phone. Poor software support here in Europe/Germany 😢. We have to wait too long to get the latest security patch. I'm still on april.
Overall a great phone that I love to use daily.
Great video. I loved watching it.
Greetings from Germany 😊
I got my OnePlus 12 for $650 cad.
10% discount, plus trade in plus bonus.
People need to read the fine print.
In Canada we no long have contract pricing on Mobile companies. Made it illegal.
I agree, I want to switch from my Pixel 8 Pro to the OnePlus 12 but it's out of stock for the last 2 weeks in my country , hopefully next week it will be available. I love OnePlus OS and prefer it way more than OneUI that I had on my previous s21, s22u and s23u
Dude tell me is it totally worth to buy? Bcoz im actually samsung user for a long time & now due to this phone ,confused between op+12, 15promax & S24U. Which one to buy ? Please tell 🙏
@@TechWidz Finally switched to the OP12, no regrets, this phone is blazing fast and smooth, battery is rock solid and cameras really close to Pixel 8 Pro quality, the 3x zoom is better on the Oneplus.
It even feels slimmer and lighter
Isnt oxygen OS basically colorOS? I just moved from an oppo find x2 device to the OnePlus 12 and its basically the same imo, great software, amazing phone, can't complain 👍
Yes but it's more refined and doesn't come with bloatware..
Excellent phone but I'm getting frustrated The updates are rolling out slow oh my goodness and they have Wi-Fi 7,6E and all that Wait until you tried the individual app volume control and One more thing I want OnePlus to fix the icon problem with third party icon pack I'm a OnePlus 7 pro I used to use different icon now I can't edit it to my likens and I don't want to use a launcher You have to mention that D65 also it's a game changer too knowing that your phone is set to industry standard crazy
Can you compare this to the slightly cheaper iQOO 12 (if you have the iQOO 12)?
Great phone
It's my main phone for 2 months now and love it !!
Can't wait for the One Plus 13 that would be a banger this year .
Got one for £355 from Ali express with global rom,battery is great
It seems very cheap price.. how to get it ? 256GB varient?
Completely agree oneplus such a large company I’m sure they could’ve made deals with carriers or even have it available in more retailers.
It’s my favourite phone in 2024, My previous Oneplus was the 6 model and I thought it was a great phone😊
No trade in deals for the UK this year stopped me from buying one. Went for base Xiaomi 14 instead. Hopefully trade in deals back this year for OP13.
Now you got me interested....I may give one plus more of a look next time I upgrade. Using the S24 Ultra at this point.
The S24 Ultra is better so good choice! OnePlus is more wallet friendly
My father is eighty years old. He is an elderly man and has a medical crutch. Is it possible for my father to use a modern smart phone? Are there any problems or drawbacks? Can you answer?For example, what is a simple phone and how much will it cost in dollars? Do you mean economic category??@@AverageDadOfficial
What's better about the S24 Ultra?
@@A1000RFor the majority they just buy the brand and the flat screen
But my real life experience I think that oneplus has better design and haptics
For Samsung slightly better peak brightness and that's it, You can argue that s24 ultra feels slightly more premium but if you were in my shoes you would pick the oneplus 12
Uhm, I have to mention video recording in s24 ultra has better stabilisation.
@@DrAlyElashry do you experience stutter in your videos on the OnePlus 12? On mine it's amazingly smooth so I can't see how it could be much better.
I love this phone
Love your review on the Oneplus 12 I'm getting mine next week and can't wait to customize it for my daily go to. Also really dig that Ps5 on the shelf there. 👍🏻
Awesome thank you!
Ive has mine since launch and im loving it. Definitely a slept on phone one of the best phones available
Very hard to buy in Australia too. No retail presence and no contracts.
I love mine, I struggle between using this or my S24 Ultra and that's the honest truth. The OP12 just feels so good in my hands, and it does everything well. The S24 is incredible, but those sharp edges are my only gripe. The OP12 is so comfortable. I can't seem to part with either, so I'll keep my switching my sim card from phone to phone like a weirdo
Great phone, however, it loses a huge chunk of its value straight away
I considered this but went for the xiaomi 14 ultra. Although it would be in a case.. I just really REALLY hate the look of the back of the oneplus 12, plus that green colour would be the only option for 512gb😐
I have a OnePlus 11 , but i have replaced it with a xiaomi 14 . Why , because of the flat screen and the leica camera system. I'm very happy the xiaomi and until OnePlus give me a flat screen I'm not going back . They're hard to protect and give off glare from the edges . But i do like OnePlus phones , they're great .
I traded in my iPhone 15 pro for mine and have no regrets. It allowed me to only pay $301 for the 16g with 512 GB
I absolutely love my s24 ultra ❤the oneplus 12 is def a beast of a phone tho
I just bought the One Plus 12 🎉
1:57 No, it only has an IP65 rating, so don't go dropping it in a bathtub or a sink.
How can anyone not love OnePlus 12? For the price, this is a no brainer choice.
i have it and its amazing, i had oneplus 8 and it was great, then i switched to S24+ , horrible and went back to oneplus 12 :D
Great video breakdown Mike
The font size makes OxygenOS ugly , reduce it a little bit
lol, i am partially sighted so i need large font
Big issue nobody does them on contract why only samsung!
Only reason i got the s24U was the flat screen. Upgrading from a oneplus 9.
Vodafone EE 02 and 3 need to up thier game.
Oneplus software is better. In my opinion samsung try move you Way from google even my wifi passwords wont sync on my s24U
I don't think it's a brand thing ,I think it's an update thing, they are just as bad as Motorola,they don't update their phone's properly especially their mid-range phones..
They will always be at the bottom..
I have I have owned one or two and they are great phones they are absolutely horrible with updates this is why it will always stay at the bottom... 14:37
Love your channel great reviews 💯
Could you please do a video on transferring data from one phone to another sometime❤
Yes I can
Between the op12 and the vivo x100 pro origin os, which one would you recommend? I finally want a phone with good photos after struggling with a series of OP mediocre cameras for the past 10 years. Cheers!
Vivo
The phone i wanted but couldnt get a contract as you say ,so went for honor 6 pro and its very nice from my 11t pro its a step up indeed
I uploaded from the 11T Pro to HM6P too. Are you still happy with the Phone?
@@patrickcaldwell4599 love it pictures are amazing screen great fast as you'll ever need 9-10
Does the 16gb ram perform better then the 12 on s24u?
I can definitely say that the 16 is better, my fold 4 had 12 and would constantly close my CZcams if I minimized and threw a game on or left it alone for an hour, my one plus open I can minimize, leave it for the whole day go back later and it's still on the same video I was watching.
Not to mention expansion RAM crazy up to 12 so 16 + 12 =28 wow 😳🤯😳 I know other phones do that but imagine if you have the 24 GB of RAM with 12 expansion That's 36
3:45 although i ony charge up to 80% i can use it for 4 hours until it only has 20% :/
No ip68.

The channel owner can answer my question!
Maybe you could compare the OnePlus 12 to the Find X7 Ultra? From what I understand the Find X7 Ultra is basically the same as the OnePlus 12 but more. I guess it doesn't really matter since I have the OPPO and think it's awesome. Better in every way than my S24U.
How are the cameras?
@@Devil-ig7kl they're awesome.
"The OnePlus 12 is the Coolest phone ever seen..."
Rarely do we see substantial improvements in the smartphone space. But this year, OnePlus has released a dual heatpipe smartphone system that can wirelessly charge at 50 watts. Going from 0 to 50 percent charged in just 23 minutes. Not to mention the fact that the OnePlus 12 can charged wired with 80watts.
I considered the OP12, but already have the Open and knew I wanted the Xiaomi 14 Ultra. Have to pick and choose due to available money. Probably not going to buy another phone until Mix Fold 4 or Open 2.
Yeah, that is fair! you have great phone choices
I had a Xiaomi few years back I found it very was bad in the software department as I couldn't side load apps was a big issue as I use CZcams vanced at the time due to. Security feature. This was about 3 years ago though maybe they have improved.
@@gwales10 I have been using Xiaomi phones since the Mi Mix 2 (2017). Never had a problem side loading anything.
@jimmcnevin9367 the app I use wouldn't work only phone I had that it wouldn't work on.
@@gwales10 So was the app or the phone? One can easily say that the app wasn't optimized to run in that environment. Blame the dev 🤣
ă have oneplus 12.its a great phone
bro you are brighter than my future. :/
OxygenOs is already based on colorOs. they look exactly the same along with realmeui
lol, i know but they have small differences... trust me
OP 12 is a great phone!
Hello my friend of course I am loyal to OnePlus for being clean system and snappy devices not laggy like the ones we have n the US😊
Nice but where you getting not popular from? The OP12 has been pretty much universally praised by every tech reviewer and CZcamsr on the planet as one of, if not the best flagship of 2024, taking into account performance, specs, charging, price etc etc. Of course OP doesn't compare to apple in sales, apple pretty much owns the entire north American phone market and oneplus parent company barely even pushes oneplus in asia as they already have oppo, vivo and Realme. ln india for example vivo is no.2 in sales behind Xiaomi and Realme is 4th and Oppo 5th . You can also buy the imported model of the OP12 for £600 in the UK without hassle on reputable sites like Wonda mobile, even has a warranty.
Is the anti reflective screen of the 24 ultra still efficient with a screenprotector on?
No
I own a OP12 and prefered it over Pixel 8 Pro, everything is so much faster, much more battery life, lightning charge. The pictures are almost as good.
How close are the cameras though? That's my main concern, I'm a stickler for best pics taken not s24u oversaturated stuff. Plus Google goodies....
are you selling this device?
So I see on wonda mobile it comes flashed with an EU ROM, is this pretty much the same as a global ROM or will there be a couple of functionality issues?
no it work flawlessly like its global
Got one. Love it 😊
Good choice!
Not true I get only 5 hours of backup 120 fps gaming highest settings game name Mobile legends it's easy very easy to kill it under 5 hours
My S24 Ultra will go for a trade-in deal next year for next year oneplus phone. By then, Oneplus will come with a flat screen
Yes the reason why cheap people don't get the one plus 12 is because they have to buy it outright no one is going to do that including me if I want a normal phone I would buy the s24 ultra because it's the best phone out right now but I don't want a regular phone so I bought the one plus open because I only buy folding phones now that's why I didn't buy the one plus 12 there's no point in buying it there's much better
But you can buy them and comes to att, we did qndnits freaking Rocking and rolling
The channel owner can answer my question!
What question?

Oxygen OS vs Magic OS please
oxygen
I bought it and my wife is currently using it as her daily driver. She's a Samsung loyalist but has yet to pull the trigger on the S24 Ultra.
I have a s24U I do think oneplus is better except for the zoom and the curved screen.
the OP 13 aprently has 4d screen and a better zoom camera. Hopefully be very small curve 😂
@gwales10 I thought oneplus has 120x zoom compared to samsung?
@HV55VN samaung camera is still superior but oneplus battery is better
@@gwales10 no, oneplus outperforms the samsung s24 ultra in photography. Samsung just wins by a tiny margin in long range zoom.
curved screen any issues?
no, palm rejection is great! screen is stunning!
You meant ip65 😁
I did!
Does it have e-sim? Thank you.
yes it does
Yes
@@AverageDadOfficial where I live (UAE) I can only buy online the Indian version of it which doesn't have e-sim,so frustrating. Thank you for your reply, your videos are very much appreciated ,keep doing what you are doing, you rock!
@adimandea9930 go for indian version instead of chinese one because chinese has some manufacturing fault issues. I saw on CZcams.
I have a OnePlus 12 and I killed the phone in a day
With no problem 7 a.m. till about 10:00 pm at night but I'm able to kill the phone today I guess I used it more it only made it from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. at which point it was down to 20%
How?? you must be on it for 12 hours?!
I get two full days with my😊
EE is the biggest mobile provider in the UK
Your point? still no OnePlus lol
@@AverageDadOfficial my point is EE is the UK biggest mobile network not 02 or Vodafone as you said lol
I actually tried to kill it in a day and I couldn't xD !!
lol, i told you.. it is a beast
Well it's ip65, not ip68, and also it hasn't the highest pwm on any phone, because it has 2000+ pwm and Honor magic 6 pro has 4000+ pwm.
Despite this, it's probably the best flagship phone for the price of all the market.
Thanks for correcting me....
OnePlus seems to have lost their lustre after Carl Pei left the company.
Did you get the Nothing?
