@@pjanoo6973 It looks like a hell of an upgrade too. I contemplated so much to do get the 13 but I think I'll just wait until the 14 comes out. The main upgrade for me would be ip68 & ip69 since I occasionally use my phone in the shower😢
Got the OP 12 16/512GB about 10 months ago and it is solid, OxygenOS 15 made it even better! Really happy unlike I was really frustrated with my previous OP 10 Pro. The 13 is not much of an upgrade, especially when it comes to camera modules, and if you willing to shell out USD900/+, then go for 13, otherwise 12 is solid and will save you few USD100s. I shall wait for next iteration of OP and hope Elite 2 will bring strong features and performance compared to * Gen 3 and much better camera modules.
Hello, I saw that you were reviewing headphones and I wanted to consult you. I was looking for a headset with a good microphone and high quality sound and a high final sound. I did a lot of research. I was stuck between Anker Liberty soundcore pro 4, Nothing Ear 2 and Earfun Air pro 4. Do you have any suggestions (Nothing Ear) I also liked 2024 and Jabra Elite 10, but they are out of stock right now)
Thanks fam. Mine is scheduled to arrive this Friday. My case and screen protector are already here. I plan to rest my 15 PM for a time for this phone. I'm headed to Greece in a couple months so this should be on time for taking photos.
You didn't mention that 12 has exactly the same AI features with 13. As well as that the telephoto camera in 13 is a downgrade compared with 12, the ultrawide sensor is almost the same in both phones and the main camera have exactly the same sensor. There's no serious reason to upgrade to 13 if you have the 12.
common sense will dictate to not upgrade every year. I still have my s23 ultra and will most likely not update to the 25. Phones have reached peak development
I'm watching this on my OnePlus 12 and I've been waiting for this video thank you for making it. If you have a OnePlus 12 you want an in-depth comparison between the two especially after this last software update
I'm happy with my op13, didn't like the design of op12 so didn't upgrade from op8t last year. Don't have a case for it yet but indeed it's quite comfortable naked. 12 seems similar to 8t with the thin sides, felt really slippery. Nice review
Personally, I chose the black eclipse with 16 gigabytes of RAM and 512 gigabytes of storage. It looks very stealthy and I can't wait for my magnetic black sandstone bumper case to arrive. I'm also planning on picking up the magnetic aramid carbon fiber case as well. Usually, I rotate my case is around. On another note, for a limited time 1 + is offering a free memory upgrade. The 16 GB of RAM with 512 GB storage models are available for $899.99. I don't know how long the sale will last. The 13 is constructed from OnePlus's proprietary material "Crystal Shield" ceramic glass. They've been developing it for quite a while and it's supposed to be on par with Apple's proprietary material "Ceramic Shield".
I see that Mahomes story popping up in your Google feed! 😅 Nice sneaking that in fam! I'm trying to decide between this and Pixal 9 pro. Open + is making it a tough decision!
The OP12 is sitting at £500 on Amazon Renewed. I'll just grab the 13 when it hits that price. I've only had my Pixel 7 Pro for 18 months, so there's no reason to upgrade.
I can see how that feature beacon link can be great for hikers.. if you buy this phone you will no longer be able to tolerate slower charging speeds phones from other manufacturers
Yeah Im thinking of jumping ship to s25 ultra. The one thing that I can't ignore with OnePlus is there camera. They are not up to par with Samsung. I previously had the s22 ultra before getting my OnePlus 12 and immediately saw that it was a level below. I honestly think I stayed with my OnePlus because I do enjoy the battery life and fast charging.
I picked up a 256 gb 12 gb ram OP12 during black friday for $549, but im debating on returning it (still in the return window) to pick up the 13R. There dont seem to be many 13R reviews right now. Any thoughts?
@@ItsBabaEro Hey Mate! The 13R comes with an old USB 2.0 port technology compared to the fastest and latest USB 3.2 OTG in OnePlus 12 and 13. So incase if you want to transfer files over usb cable to pc in a 13R, mind you it will be painfully slow and frustrating.
@@ItsBabaEro Same as me but i paid 529 ( with taxi included ) AND also trade an old one pus 6 for 70$, so in the end i paid 460$ , but I'm not in the return window. I'm think that the 13r Is very similar, but I'm have the Same doubt as you
I've just bought a Oneplus 12 ( 256gb, 12gb ram) for only 460$ (taxes included and also it includes 70$ discount because a traded an old device) Should I have waited until 13R? What do you think?
You cannot go wrong with the price you bought Op 12 at. Op 13 is same as Op 12 with negligible improvement. I upgraded to Op 13 from Op 8 pro which is still working perfectly fine even after 5 years of use. I would have bought Op 12 if it wasnt for the free gift and an extra discount I got for paying deposit for Op 13. 😊
OnePlus truly made an iPhone/Pixel baby. Not even the biggest tech channels did a video test. You're a real one for that! Overall you had the best review for this phone.
Very very small upgrade if that, basically the same phone in the bigger picture. You will see real difference with the One plus 14 compared to the 12. By the way the 12 have all the AI features as well!
I have op12r pixel 9 pro xl and i still use op12r over pixel simply because it dies everything better effortlessly then the pixel however the camera was definitely better in pixel.i usually get the r models on op phones this year im getting the 13 instead of r
I BOUGHT MY ONE PLUS 12 WITH 512 GB SOLD IT FOR $675 WITH THAT AMOUNT WILL PUT THE DIFFERENCE FOR THE ONE PLUS 13 I CAN'T COMPLAIN THE PRICE I SOLD MY ONE PLUS 12!!! 😎👍

Terrible price! With price of iPhone 16 pro who in the world would buy it? And why?! They are so stupid with the prize especially when I know that’s almost each application for android is a little bit worse than the same for iOS. I would buy this phone with the price 700.
I am not an Apple fan but all flagship slab phones are slowly becoming the iphone when it comes to design & software yet the tech community rips Apple and praises these other guys Google/Samsung/now OnePlus 😂

Video image stabilization seems to be an issue still with One Plus. I've seen several videos where the video is very stuttery.

The quality is so good I thought you had at least 100k subs but looks like youtube algorithm is doing you dirty
My oneplus 12 had the green line bug. First experience with oneplus. But everything except that was so good that i had to test the 13
$463 trade in value of 1+12 is a joke
@@loon9600 Exactly! I can probably get a better trade in value for my S23 Ultra for the S25 Ultra.

You are the only person so far who has given an in-depth, good review of the OP13!
Thanks!
Would you trade a s24 plus for the One Plus 13 or wait for the s25 ultra to be released
Personally, I'd wait since the S25 ultra is around the corner!
@CEONTHEMAKING I agree and I know Samsung already
Wait
Good and in-depth video
Nice review. Some people say the videos are laggy but here in your video i dont see any lagg
I haven't noticed anything so far
I've seen stutter in some reviews but I haven't really seen stutters on my 13 videos, granted I haven't really filmed much yet
Awesome review! 👍
Thank you!
thanks for the info, great video
Appreciate the watch!
GREAT REVIEW 🔥🔥🔥
Much appreciated!
great through vid! not sure why the algo blueballin

the algorithm is definitely working against you, excellent video quality

I've used a magsafe case on my oneplus 12 since I got it. From poetic
💯🔥
I don't think it is better than the 12 for day to day use
Good upgrade but I'm happy with my OnePlus 12 ❤
Im upgrading from a blackberry.
Biggest downgrade of oneplus 13r and 13 is slow charging which no paid youtubers would talk about. Also downgraded periscope lens with increased price.
It's the same charging speed as before.
Terrible price! With price of iPhone 16 pro who in the world would buy it? And why?! They are so stupid with the prize especially when I know that’s almost each application for android is a little bit worse than the same for iOS. I would buy this phone with the price 700.
Currently, you can get the OP13 with 512GB for $899. iPhone 16 Pro with 512GB is $1,299. $400 is pretty significant.
