I got my Oneplus Ace 3 (china variant of Oneplus 12R) 16+512 for RM1.9k and installed google play store on it. The amount of phone you get for the price is no brainer if you ask me. Another thing to note is that the Ace 3 has ufs 4.0 as suppose to ufs 3.1 on the 12R which is again, massive win in my opinion. If you really want Oxygen OS instead of Color OS you can just flash global rom anyways.
another thing here is the Oneplus Ace 3 (chinese ver) has a better gaming performance because of the Pixelworks X7 chip, it allows the phone to run 120fps in a frame interpolation which is not included in the global version (12R) they removed it in the global version for cost cutting purposes sadly.
@@KhanNizz it matters because it still a features dedicated chip which they removed in global version, yes we can say that the phone is very sufficient in performance but it is still lacking that additional feature which many semi flagship phones doesn't have or few to many
I have the NA version and it came with a 80 watt charger and it blazes to 100 percent in less then 30 minutes. I wouldn't suggest doing that all the time and work on battery management😂 this phone is awesome compared to some others in the range you know like POCO .... With unreliable hardware and loaded with bloatware 😂. I even like it better then Samsung or should we say scamsung😂. Good phone so far 👍 gaming and streaming is what I wanted it for and could care less about the camera. They have deals on it now here that come out to about 300US for this phone it's a good bang for buck imho.
Dude. How did you get the subscribe button on my phone to light up when you were talking about subscribing? Literally broke the 4th wall and for that im subbing
Anything aside this phone just doesn't match the price it is given, for the time now you could get S23 256G around 3k, it only downsides of that is the gaming performance and anything else is way better. Still dk why the distributor here priced the recent oneplus phones at so expensive price point.
@@deRykcihC can get it at Mobile Gadgets store at Shopee for RM 2,849 with additional RM120 discount by Shopee, it's down to RM 2,729. I added it to cart during March sales and it showed that price. I have no need for it because already bought from Samsung website for RM 3,079.
@joshdannieltiiamzon902 i dont think so, it should be cheaper cuz they shared the OS and almost all the specs, my own guess is they let OnePlus Malaysia to target the standard user and Oppo Malaysia target the offline market, you can see Oppo didn't have lot of 8g2 8g3 phones in Malaysia but OnePlus do
I'm not sure what's going on either. OnePlus didn't have any official announcement about the charger getting removed. It might be a batch by batch thing?
no thats just oneplus being garbage lmao try buying imported oneplus 12 and 12r and the price drop is staggering. PH OP12 is 64000 PHP and i can find HK models in Shopee for less than 40000. PH OP12R is 44000 PHP and you'll see HK shops sell it for 32000. Oppo is just garbage as a company
@@hachiko2692 if oneplus only didnt have that pixelworks x7 chip for gaming i wouldve discarded them long ago and also their cooling is miles better than xiaomi 14 which is a deal breaker for me
i also dont like the huge camera bump its annoying especially when gaming or watching videos it gets on the way of fingers. it was hard to handle this huge screen with my small 16,5-17cm hand not a fan of the curved screen it caused miss inputs for me but all this aside its great value but i changed to pixel 8a for the smaller screen
The oneplus camera bump always made me choose to not buy it. If their camera isn't even great why do they even put such a large bump. Iqoo neo 9 isn't a camera focused device yet it does better than 12r. Oneplus cameras are alway a letdown.
The 12r are not a camera focused device either. BTW my oneplus 12 camera absolutely slaughters my S23U and the ultra was considered one of the best cameras last year.
Maybe because it's a budget friendly phone if you want a good camera go for Google but if you go for Google Hardwear is trash so it depends what you're looking for
If we compare it to the OnePlus 12 dose it come with the same RAM speed? Dose it have the same cooling system? dose it also have that second Pixelwork processor like the OnePlus12?
OnePlus devices are very good compared to others, especially the Oxygen OS interface compared to the Samsung 6.1 interface. It made me suffer during this period in terms of sudden battery drain, as well as sudden frame drops .....
@NasiLemakTech you have to have it in the sun, HDR10+ video. That's what peaks are, no phone goes ro it's peak brightness unless you're in those conditions
Oneplus 12R has an average camera and terrible optimization. FPS drops in games are noticeable! Samsung s23 8/256 is now cheaper in my country than Oneplus 12R. Samsung outclasses 12R. Poco F6/F6 Pro will also be a better choice.
Don't get the 8a lol. It heats up for no reason here in India. Too many customers are complaining about it here. Just buy an iPhone for camera oriented device if you have the money for pixel 8a. But I'm sure there are other Androids which has fine cameras at the 8a price range.

That's a HUGE price difference. I would argue that there's no warranty for an imported phone but for that price, I can look past it
@@NasiLemakTech which is why I bought it as I don't really care about warranty + it was during shopee sale that's why it was so cheap

have you tried nothing phone 2a yet? havent seen any gaming test after new update
is that onlly in your contry with no charger or?
I have no idea. Seems like India is the same
@@NasiLemakTech maybe this is new with no chagrer in the box. Many videos about unboxing op 12r have charger in the box
India gets 100 watt charger and a case in the box. Not sure about the price difference tho
The 12r that I bought in February came with the charger.

Nicely done!! 😊
That's funny, I thought the 12R only have 3 years of Android updates & 4 years security updates
No official record, but I did ask OnePlus directly about it.
@@NasiLemakTech It's the first time I see on RUclips and yours that oneplus 12r does not have a charger in the box, that is very strange to me.
I've heard some people on Twitter complaining about not having a charger too. Maybe this is a new transition?
@@NasiLemakTech who know 🤷🏻
What is in your right hand?
You mean my left hand? That's the teleprompter controller
Right from my perspective hehe. Teleprompter Controller sounds pretty formal and professional.
Mine have free power brick and 2 charging cable tho
What's your wrist size
About 5.5cm top side. I have no idea what's the circumference
Still waiting for iqoo 12 review
they gone more expensive in Malaysia compared to China and still taking the chargers away? NAH
Because Oneplus is now handle by Oppo. That's why it's more expensive compare to old phones.... Which is kinda sad :(
@joshdannieltiiamzon902 i dont think so, it should be cheaper cuz they shared the OS and almost all the specs, my own guess is they let OnePlus Malaysia to target the standard user and Oppo Malaysia target the offline market, you can see Oppo didn't have lot of 8g2 8g3 phones in Malaysia but OnePlus do
OnePlus is now playing with the markets, in the USA it does bring the 80 watt charger, but it offers only 3 years of updates 🤦🏼♂️
I'm not sure what's going on either. OnePlus didn't have any official announcement about the charger getting removed.
It might be a batch by batch thing?
@@NasiLemakTech No, it's because of the markets. I saw that in Mexico they don't come with the charger either.
Oh so it's happening. I wonder how many regions are affected
Thai just launched today and the price was 735$ 💀
Oneplus what are you thinking ?!!
That... is crazy expensive. Is there a charger included?
the one problem is here in the philippines it almost the same price as xiaomi 14 which has a much better camera and snapdragon8 gen3. taxes are crazy
no thats just oneplus being garbage lmao
try buying imported oneplus 12 and 12r and the price drop is staggering.
PH OP12 is 64000 PHP and i can find HK models in Shopee for less than 40000.
PH OP12R is 44000 PHP and you'll see HK shops sell it for 32000.
Oppo is just garbage as a company

oneplus used to be flagship killer. but not anymore. luckily infinix and poco are still doing it .
that phone is super ugly... looks like a good value though. I'm not sure I trust OnePlus though
Nice review. Love that you focus on things that other big players don't know about
What do you think is better iPhone 13 or oneplus 12r?

Nope. Out of the three, I recommend the S23 Ultra
