Originally launched in China last month, the OnePlus 12 series has just made its global debut in India last night. Right after the launch event was over, the company also revealed the availability and pricing of the new flagship series for Malaysia.

OnePlus 12 quick specs
To match its flagship status, OnePlus has equipped the new smartphone with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. Accompanying the premium-class chip are LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0-based internal storage.
The OnePlus 12 also features a 6.82-inch QHD+ ProXDR display with dynamic refresh rate capability of up to 120Hz and 2160Hz PWM dimming. Protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, it also has a maximum brightness level of 4500 nits in addition to the ability to support multiple HDR formats including HDR10, HDR10+, HLG, and Dolby Vision.
When it comes to photography, the OnePlus 12 relies on a tri-camera module that the brand co-developed with Hasselblad. It features a main camera that is equipped with a 50MP Sony LYT-808 sensor, f/1.6 lens, and an optical image stabilisation system (OIS).
Aside from that, there is also an ultra-wide camera with a 48MP Sony IMX581 sensor and a 64MP periscope telephoto camera that features 3x optical zoom capability. For selfies, the OnePlus 12’s front camera comes equipped with a 32MP Sony IMX615 sensor.
Completing the main hardware specifications of the IP65-rated phone is a 5,400mAh dual-cell battery. The OnePlus 12 supports SuperVOOC wired fast charging technology as well as 50W AirVOOC wireless fast charging.
OnePlus 12R quick specs
Unlike its higher-end sibling, the OnePlus 12R is running on the older Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. However, the device still features LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0-based internal storage.
Another factor that makes the OnePlus 12R different from the OnePlus 12 is the fact that it has a smaller 6.78-inch AMOLED ProXDR display. The phone’s native resolution is also slightly lower at 2780 x 1264 but the display still comes with 120Hz dynamic refresh rate and 4500 nits peak brightness as well as support for HDR10+ and Dolby Vision.
The easiest way to spot the OnePlus 12R is by checking out the rear camera module which has no Hasselblad branding on it. It still has a tri-camera setup though which includes a main camera with a 50MP Sony IMX890 sensor, f/1.8 lens, and OIS.
The module also features an 8MP f/2.2 ultra-wide camera and a 2MP macro camera. Not to forget, there is also a 16MP front-facing camera with f/2.4 lens for selfies.
Similar to the OnePlus 12, the OnePlus 12R also comes with a dual-cell battery albeit with a slightly higher total capacity of 5500mAh. The support for 100W SuperVOOC fast charging technology has been retained for the device but not the AirVOOC wireless fast charging.
