Hdr10 certifications along with a refresh rate ranging from 1 to 120Hz. This ensures a viewing experience with transitions even under direct sunlight. Additionally the stereo speakers deliver quality for video streaming while Bluetooth connectivity ensures optimal sound reproduction.
OnePlus 12 Design
Let’s delve into the design aspect now. The OnePlus 12 showcases a design with details that capture attention. The relocation of the slider to the left side enhances connectivity, during gaming sessions. However, this change also makes it easier to switch to loud mode when stowing your phone in your pocket.
The 6.7 inch OLED screen is visually appealing although the curved edges might pose a challenge when using it in bed. The glass back available, in white or a shade of green adds an elegant touch to the phone. Its water and dust resistance also enhances its durability.
I appreciate the placement of the volume buttons to the power button as it allows for one handed use while the iconic OnePlus toggle switch now has its dedicated spot, on the left side. The front glass is made of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 and the back is crafted from Gorilla Glass 5. This phone carries an IP64 rating to protect it from spills and rainy weather.
It’s also convenient to use the phone in conditions because the screen is designed to detect touch inputs when wet. I tested this by wetting the screen with tap water. Although it was slightly less responsive compared to when dry it remained usable with minimal errors. In contrast a similar test, on iPhone 15 Pro Max rendered it nearly unusable. This showcases OnePlus advantage in this aspect.
