On January 23, the much-awaited OnePlus 12 and 12R will make their world premiere, giving Android fans new hope among a deluge of flagship updates. Although the official specifications and pricing for India are yet unknown, leaked US prices provide a tantalizing look at what these powerful phones might cost.
OnePlus 12: Premium Power with a Premium Price Tag?
The OnePlus 12 is rumored to have a significant price increase over its predecessor. The entry-level 12GB RAM + 256GB storage model should cost you $799 (about Rs. 66,400), but the 16GB RAM + 512GB combination might cost you as much as $899 (roughly Rs. 74,000).
This is a substantial increase above the $699 starting price of the OnePlus 11, putting the 12 in direct rivalry with flagship devices like the Google Pixel 8, Samsung Galaxy S23, and Apple iPhone 15.
What, though, justifies this prospective price increase? A powerful device with the most recent Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, up to 24GB of LPDDR5X RAM, an amazing 6.82-inch quad-HD+ LTPO OLED display with a fast refresh rate of 120Hz, and a triple rear camera configuration optimized by Hasselblad is revealed by the leaked information. With the 5,400mAh cell offering 50W wireless, 10W reverse wireless, and 100W wired SuperVOOC charging, battery life shouldn't be an issue either.
OnePlus 12R: Affordable Flagship Alternative?
In case someone is looking for something a little bit more affordable, the OnePlus 12R seems to be a good alternative. With a somewhat smaller 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, it provides an additional subdued but nonetheless remarkable experience. According to the speculations, there will be three back cameras, the first of which will have a 50-megapixel main sensor and be capable of taking outstanding pictures.
The price of the 12R starts at a very enticing $499 (about Rs. 35,000) for the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage edition, which might make it a compelling choice for consumers seeking a robust phone at an affordable price.
Global Unveiling Awaits: Hype on High
A high level of excitement is being reached for the official global debut on January 23rd, with leaked specs and US pricing details adding to the fire. The "Smooth Beyond Belief" event is expected to unveil all official information regarding the OnePlus 12 and 12R, including pricing in India.
It remains to be seen if these reported prices apply to the Indian market, but one thing is for sure: the OnePlus lineup of future devices is set to upend the flagship market by providing a unique blend of cutting-edge features, unadulterated power, and possibly affordable pricing.
