My feelings towards OnePlus over the years are rather ambivalent. Generally, the company makes some pretty good phones, and in the past that included some of the best non-stock versions of Android. But there’s always something that isn’t quite right, a missing feature or a bit of hardware that isn’t up to the high standards “Never Settle” seems to promise. And the OnePlus 12 is no exception.
The OnePlus 12 has a great many things compared to previous phones. The return of wireless charging, improved telephoto camera capabilities, a massive 5,400 mAh battery and all wrapped in a phone that costs considerably less than its competitors. But I’m still irked by the fact the phone only offers IP65 water resistance.
