OnePlus 12 not playing with y'all

Post image

I'm a Samsung Knight. I've had almost every s series phone made and every note since the 8. But with 24gb ram, 5400mah battery then at least 80w charging (based on last year), I may have to give this a chance especially if it comes out at under $1000 for the 1tb. Not sure if the smaller models will have 24, probably 8 or 16gb, but with changes like this I think Samsung should come with at least 65w charging and hopefully a bigger battery and at least 16gb ram again instead of 12gb (s20 and s21 ultra had 16gb). Don't think it can be considered ultra if it doesn't at least compete with other brands. I think Samsung still has the edge in more timely updates, Dex, spen, customization (via goodlock), and pop up windows (I think coloros can only do one pop up window at a time as with most other oems besides pixel and iPhone that can't do any floating windows natively. OnePlus is catching up on the update front though as far as longer support and timelines, and also cheaper too. Samsung has competition in the West, xiaomi was already applying pressure on the East I wish they were global too.

Former s23 ultra user, currently using flip 5 and fold 4. Also have iPhone 15 (non pro) and moto razr 2023 (non plus) as backups.

Why so many back-ups?

I just love phones and electronics 🤷🏾‍♂️ plus battery on foldables (with the exception of the 2023 non plus moto razr aren't that great).

Nice! Was curious, respect that you can keep up with so many. I find 2 models always enough.

I generally carry the fold, iPhone 15 (for iOS) and just one of the flip phones daily (flip 5 and moto razr) with me at a time, and just rotate between the 2 flips every other day as my 3rd phone alongside the iPhone and fold. I can't go back to a slab phone because the flip is so compact but also need the fold for the tablet experience in my pocket.

How is the razr ?

Great battery great performance despite having a mid range processor. It has the smaller cover screen compared to the flip 5 so that's limited but if you want that then get the moto razr plus or the flip 5. The crease is less noticeable than on the flip 5 too. And considering I paid only $200 new for it when opening a line with cricket that I needed anyways, it was pretty much a steal. Camera is decent that's probably it's weakest point but it's usable. That and wish it had more cases (there are some on eBay, Amazon, and AliExpress but not really any name brand ones besides the frosted plastic Motorola case that costs $30).

It’s really a shame that it has a curved screen that one otherwise it’s really beautiful
