Unknowingly, OnePlus mobile phone has been 10 years old, and I first met OnePlus in 2017, in order to travel abroad, I bought OnePlus 5 as a backup camera camera, and I was amazed by its excellent photo ability and smooth use experience. In the following years, the OnePlus 7 Pro with a telescopic camera, the OnePlus Ace Pro, the Genshin Impact co-branded OnePlus Ace 2 and the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro, which have dominated the performance score for a long time, have been used one after another. Along the way, I have witnessed OnePlus's continuous efforts for the ultimate user experience, and recently the OnePlus 12, known as the "masterpiece of the decade", was officially released, and I was fortunate to get it, and I deeply felt that this is a flagship product with great care.
The OnePlus 12 continues the family-style big red packaging design, and the word 12 on the top is particularly eye-catching. The lower front is equipped with the joint logo of OnePlus and Hasselblad, a top camera manufacturer, to indicate that it is another masterpiece created by the in-depth cooperation between the two companies. In fact, the two have cooperated as early as the OnePlus 9 in 2019, and after 4 years of polishing, the OnePlus 12's photo ability is more outstanding.
OnePlus 12 is a milestone of the 10th anniversary of the establishment of OnePlus mobile phones, so a lot of special details have been added to the package, and the simple copywriting has touched me as an old user.
I got a rock black color scheme, and the texture of the back shell surpasses that of any phone I've seen before, with a delicate graininess and a dazzling brilliance.
The design of the camera area** is inspired by the watch, with a glossy metal frame with full-coverage tempered glass, and an internal radial sandblasted texture starting from the center, reflecting a more intense glow than the back case. The inner circle of the beveled cut is carved with vertical lines, as if simulating the scale of time.
The three-segment slider switch located on the left side of the bezel is a unique element of OnePlus phones, which can quickly switch between mute, vibrate, and ring modes when the screen is locked, which is very convenient to operate. The volume adjustment and lock screen keys are on the right.
An infrared remote control module is added to the top, which can remotely control most of the electrical equipment based on the principle of infrared remote control with the mobile phone APP. The SIM card slot is at the bottom, and 1 Nano SIM can be placed on the front and back of the card tray, which supports dual SIM dual standby. Built-in ultra-linear stereo dual speakers at the top and bottom, and a dual-ring magnetic design for Dolby Vision Atmos, creating an immersive experience when watching movies or games horizontally.
OnePlus 12's screen adopts a "2K oriental screen", 3168 1440 resolution, 510ppi pixel density, 120Hz LTPO adaptive refresh rate, 1600nit global brightness, 4500nit peak excitation brightness, 2160Hz high-frequency PWM dimming. With its excellent display effect, it won the DisplayMate Best Smartphone Display Award and Display Performance Grade of A+ (Display Performance Grade of A+), which is the first domestic 2K screen to receive an A+ rating.
DisplayMate Perspective: The OnePlus 12 has an impressive world-class phone display with near-textbook perfect calibration accuracy and performance that looks like it is perfect. According to the test results, the OnePlus 12 won the DisplayMate award for Best Mobile Display, as well as the highest display performance rating of all time, A+, and set 18 records.
based on our extensive lab tests and measurements the oneplus 12 has a very impressive excellent top tier world class smartphone display with close to text book perfect calibration accuracy and performance that is visually indistinguishable from perfect. based on our objective lab tests and measurements the oneplus 12 receives a displaymate best smartphone display award earning displaymate’s highest ever display performance grade of a+ and setting or matching 18 smartphone display performance records including 8 that are visually indistinguishable from perfect that are listed above.
Regarding the 2K oriental screen, OnePlus claims to be equipped with medical-grade bright eye protection technology, which is achieved through DC-like and high-frequency PWM dimming and hardware-level low blue light technologies. DisplayMate's tests also show that when the eye protection mode is turned on, the color balance changes, and the maximum intensity blue light spectrum is reduced by 80%, and if the display brightness is lowered, the amount of blue light will be further reduced. When the sleep mode is turned on, the color temperature of the screen will automatically adjust to warm colors after sunset and before sunrise, increasing the secretion of melatonin and improving sleep quality.
OnePlus 12's under-display fingerprint sensor has been upgraded from a traditional short-throw to an ultra-thin unlocking module, while the fingerprint unlocking area has been moved upwards, making the unlocking gesture much more comfortable, and avoiding the risk of slipping the phone caused by holding it too low when unlocking.
At present, there are many mobile phones with IP65 waterproof, but the real pain point of users is that the touch of the screen will often fail after the mobile phone is wet. Surprisingly, the OnePlus 12 has solved the problem of the century, and the iPhone doesn't seem to have been solved.
OnePlus 12's camera has evolved again, and the main camera is Sony Light Yu LYT-808, 1 14-inch outsole, 50 million pixels, f16 23mm, the imaging effect is second only to the strongest 1-inch sensor;The ultra-wide angle is IMX581, 1 2 inches, 48 million pixels, f22 14mm；Telephoto returns to periscope structure, OV64B 1 2-inch sensor, 64 million pixels, F26 70mm, with 3x optical zoom and 6x digital zoom capability. In addition, it is also equipped with a 13-channel multispectral sensor, which is believed to have good performance with Hasselblad's full-focus ultra-light and shadow image algorithm.
I used a short time to test the shooting capabilities of the OnePlus 12, and the built-in camera has 5 focal lengths by default (equivalent to 14mm, 23mm, 47mm, 70mm, 140mm), and it is not difficult to see that it can maintain excellent visual effects even in the middle of the night when it is not well lit, with vivid colors, strong contrast, high saturation, and no color spill on the edges of the high-brightness light box. The 140mm 6x zoom image stabilization is as steady as an old dog, and it's hard to imagine that this is achieved on a mobile phone.
In addition to Hasselblad's full-range ultra-light and shadow image algorithm, the most Hasselblad flavor is the XPAN 65:24 ultra-wide format ratio mode, which brings the classics of the era back to life. When taking the photo, the frame will be displayed in the style of Hasselblad xpan, and pressing the orange-red shutter will simulate the whole process of negative film development, which is full of film flavor.
OnePlus 12 uses Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen3, which is the performance ceiling at this stage, and TSMC 4nm process process, and the core combination is fine-tuned again: 1 33 GHz Cortex X4 ultra-large cores, 5 Cortex A720 large cores (3 of which 3.).2 GHz, 2 30ghz pc2The 3GHz Cortex A520 small core significantly surpasses the previous generation Snapdragon 8 Gen2 on paper.
According to the official data released by Qualcomm, CPU performance is increased by 30%, game performance is increased by 25%, and the corresponding energy efficiency is increased by more than 20%, which means that in games with frame lock 60, the load of CPU+GPU is lower, and the heat generation and power consumption will inevitably decrease.
OnePlus 12 Antutu ran the score to break through the 2,100,000 mark, and there is no suspense in reaching the top of the performance rankings!Compared to the previous generation flagship with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, it is nearly 30%!At this time, the temperature rose by less than 3 degrees, presumably thanks to the 9140 square millimeter VC heat dissipation area and the joint blessing of diamond thermal conductive gel and superconducting thermal graphite.
Use the Genshin Impact that I have recently indulged in to experience, and when the game is opened, it will prompt "Provide professional Genshin Impact performance", and at the same time turn on the Hyper Boost game engine. Wandering around in Inazuma at the highest image quality, stable 60 without dropping frames, and the frame rate with the game super frame function turned on has been increased to 78 frames, which is as smooth as silk.
OnePlus 12 comes standard with a 5400mAh large-capacity battery, which can make it difficult for me during the actual test, and the battery life is too long and too long. After I got it, I only flushed it once, and then I played Genshin Impact for more than 3 hours, took photos, etc., and there was still 58% of the battery left, and it seemed that I couldn't finish the power before the deadline.
In most of the previous Android phones, wireless charging and NFC could only choose 1 of 2. OnePlus 12 not only achieves the best of both worlds, but also strengthens the effective area of NFC induction, and the official claim is that there is no need to aim, and the front and back sides can be brushed.
In addition, there is a small detail, the unit responsible for vibration has been upgraded to a bionic vibration motor turbo, which is applied in the direction of simulating physical keyboard typing feedback when typing characters to enhance the sense of confirmation. At present, the input methods that support this technology are Sogou and.
Overall, the OnePlus 12 is almost perfect in terms of appearance, performance, camera capabilities, gaming experience, and battery life, and it is really a flagship phone that is beyond words. In fact, there are a lot of design ingenuity, because of time and space reasons can not be presented in this article, and then it is planned to release 2 separate articles on the game experience and shooting effect, of course, it is not excluded that more features will be found in the follow-up evaluation process, so stay tuned!
