Sweet review! This thing kinda came out of nowhere and it's honestly a lot more interesting than a Samsung right now just based off of battery, charging and price. If I end up going back to Android for my next phone purchase then it will very likely be this phone!
A wild Burnsy the king emerges. Yeah I really enjoy the phone, if androids gets iMessage integration down then Apple is ..”cooked” get it… because Tim Cook
Gotta be honest One plus is an amazing Flagship killer phone , for the price that it is sold at the performance , longevity and that style is next to none , been a one plus user for less than a month but have got great reviews from family members using them from back in 2018, and not a bad thing to say about it
13:15 The OnePlus has MANY options to calibrate the display so you can fine tune it to be accurate. Most iPhone users wouldn’t know that because there are NO display calibration settings in an iPhone. EDIT: Ok he eventually found the settings at the end of the video. Lol
If you never COMPARE cameras you will generally be happy with most cell phone cameras except with the basic cheaper phones....but some of those are pretty good. Sufficient light is the key❤
I've just ordered one an 2 hours ago.Roughly 600 euros and it comes with 100w charger included,that's a good thing for me.I don't like to receive a phone and then go buy a charger.......sounds,looks and feels ridiculous not having a charger...

I'm strongly considerring this for my next phone. I had a Oneplus6T for a couple of years and it was an incredible phone for the money. Oneplus OS is very good. I felt it was quite close to pure android, but with some really smart enhancements.

@@tse0123 well I did upgrade from OnePlus 9 to the 12R it is an upgrade with the exception of the camera. The op9 camera is far superior to the 12R. I don't use the camera much so am overall very happy with the 12R

What do you think about one plus UI. People are really exaggerating about oxygen OS looks quite similar to color os . It still looks quite clean while adding more functionalities than pixel s UI.
Seems good to me. My only experience with androids has been a bazillion Samsung and Lenovo tablets… and for phones the pixel. The one plus UI seems very unobtrusive and quite logical to navigate.
I went from iphone to a 12 r i dont regret it once. I understand the iphone eco system but dont regret it. One thing my night time shots are horrible. Remember he is using the best iphone 15 out there vs a 12r and it holds up
Commenting before watching full video. But anticipating shock from an iPhone user that screen protector AND phone cover AND charging brick are all included with the phone.
This means something coming from someone who has been using a 15 Pro Max. I'm currently using the OnePlus 10T, waiting for my 12R to arrive in a few days.
I have a 2 month follow up video coming. I have to eventually switch back since my family is OBSESSED with FaceTime. Going back was/is not easy. iPhones feel so laggy, bloated, and limited . Not to mention they cost a fortune
@@TechGuyBeau that's how I was for YEARS! I kept switching back and forth between Android and iPhone every year or so until it became a running joke amongst my friends that I couldn't make up my mind lol. Everytime I would move away from apple I would inevitably miss being able to randomly FaceTime my wife, disliked being one of the only green bubbles in the chat and not seeing all blue messages lol
Apple announced its last iPhone Like it’s the Best they ve ever had stuff in it but I didn’t need the good stuff the last like three models back then. It’s cuz we r finished the phone thing? I am at a point just looking for price when need a new one
Because they release new phones every year but one in their right mind should be upgrading every year, there's zero reason to - the upgrades are smaller and smaller, the price is more stupid with each release. If you're on a samsung or iphone from 3+ years ago then an upgrade feels good, there's no point going from an s23u to an s24u or equivalent unless you like wasting money
I am watching this on my One Plus 8 and my new 12R is here unopened. The cameras on 8 are decent if you get good lighting into the camera. It will be interesting to see the difference with this 12 R? I am going from 8 GB 128 to 16 GB 256. Both have curved screen which you get used to....😊
I'm considering the 12R over the Poco X6 Pro. $173 difference for similar performance. The lower performing battery of the X6 Pro is a deal breaker for me.
Im in the market now, and my wife means that I need to try an Iphone. Here in Norway I can today get a OnePlus 12r for $550 and a Iphone 15 PRO MAX is $1500. I cant imagine the Iphone beeing worth 3 times as much?
Should I return the 14 pro max, get the 1000 dollars back and buy the oneplus 12r for 700 usd? Its in my store, and also, how do I do with a good easy to apply screen protector. Can’t find as the phone is not a big brand
Keyboard seems to be more accurate in my experience and alot snappier on s24 ultra. Iphone 13 can lag sometimes I'd say the autocorrect on samsung keyboard is worse than iphone tho. But it's funny how even the latest iphone and mine lag in subway surfers and sonic dash but my s24 ultra doesn't lol and these two came out like 10 plus years ago lol
Apple and Samsung have such slow charging speed. It's incredibly frustrating at this point. People say it preserves the battery and that's not a reason not to include fast charging though... you can always use a slow charger if you want. Apple Samsung and Google need to catch up with OnePlus and Oppo and Xiaomi and Huawei etc
i've had a oneplus 10 for 2 years, it charges in 16min 100%, and i've never had a battery problem, samsung and apple want to make more profit that's all.
Its a technological limitation. Samsung and Apple use Li-ion batteries everyone else uses Li-Po. Li-Po are cheaper, safer, cooler and thats why they are easier to fast charge but they have on average 50% the total cycle count compared to Li-ion. If anything though Samsung especially should know that their preference for this battery really affect their phones with their swelling within 3 years and explosion problems in the past.
Got a new 10 pro off amazon. Was $80 cheaper than the 12r. Just oneplus have issues with green lines in the displays, so contemplating on returning it out of the fear of the green line.
There's also a setting for double clicking either volume button to launch camera as well unless media is being played. Helps with not having to fumble for the right button 👍👍@@TechGuyBeau
I used to be an apple fanboy then i got an android and never looed back chineese phones are the best although Google pixel is also great phone o presently have op10t
Comment from someone trying to move from a flip phone to a smartphone. The real fear of buying a OnePlus 12R is the lack of a printable reference manual. The PDFs on the company's website are not paginated for reference, either for the 12R or for the Oxygen 14 OS. RUclips videos can only go so far--but not for someone learning a new style of phone. To further aggravate a potential buyer, OnePlus USA doesn't have any kind of e-mail mechanism whereby one could start a thread answering questions and concerns.
OnePlus user here. You can access the red cable club from the settings. It will link you to forums and customer service. You can chat with them if you have any inquiries. Haven't used that feature yet because the user interface is very intuitive... Or perhaps I'm just so used to OnePlus. Just explore the settings and tweak it to your liking.
I should probably publish that yeah. Long story short it’s a superb phone. So long as you are fine without FaceTime or optical zoom get it. If you need optical zoom get the non r.
So they didn't improve typing experience on ios. I remember it was really bad. Didn't use for a long time, but have some shitty Samsung s10 work phone, I found out that it must be touch refresh rate that is bad, typing experience or using it fast brings like misclicks, it's just terrible experience.
I thought I had these issues on my 14 pro. The best keyboard I believe is of Samsung always registers correctly. On my one plus I use SwiftKey it's okay but not good as Samsung keyboard. When I switch to ios it's terrible to type on it idk why
so, it is so evident that i have made a gigantic mistake at this stage after i had selected oneplus 12R over samsung s23 fe which had no doubt better cameras than this phone. let it be known that i had waited 4 years for this upgrade which was not much but I guess, you dont get what you really want in life
@@TechGuyBeausorry. I mean I had heard everything good about Samsung galaxy s 23 fe except it's camera but the flagship touch and cameras ... And then at the last moment I went with the word of mouth and bought this performance beast instead of the camera I wanted ..
I just ordered one in July 2024. At least in the US Oneplus has a deal where you get $100 off instantly by trading in any phone working or not. I have a very low end phone I got for free via 2yrs of bill credits. So the 2 yrs are up and I am getting $100 for it.
Just to let you know FYI Apple is made by Samsung Samsung isn't making their phones for years and the only thing really sent Apple really makes is their tablets and their computers but their phones in general are manufactured by Samsung and if you do not believe me take one apart and look inside you will see Samsung branded parts
Just switched to the s24 ultra from an iPhone 13 Pro Max . Just to play , great phone no doubt , but for sure I know that I will go back to iPhone in a couple of months , don’t know why , apple magic 😅? , iPhone just feels smoother and responsive more , don’t get me wrong the s24 ultra is dope fast and smooth but 9,/10 smooth if the iPhone is 10 . And the apps , so many apps are better designed on iPhone , why though / why they dint care about android apps .
If they are why does subway surfers and sonic dash lag on the last couple of iphones that came out? Lmfao so powerful they can't even optimize some old ass games. They don't lag at all on my s24 ultra but my iphone 13 is crap with almost anything other than cod mobile.
@@robmalcolm8042 sure,laggy Sammy,worst brand ever,had them all,its not even as smooth as Dony or OnePlus,not to mention Iphone- and after two years of usage its so horrible to use.
Honestly!!! Iphone in 2024???? Fancy feel, but nothing else, so time to come down from the clouds. Easily can find android phones with same functionality.
The 12R is really nice, probably the nicest in its price range, but it is not the most premium Android phone on the market. Well done breakdown of the experience, by the by.
This whole video comes off as really not genuine. As your main phone you chose for yourself is the iPhone one. Actions speak louder than -advertisement- words. It's just bizarre to play down the iPhone to hype a phone you will ditch right after you've done doing your review.
If put case on it dose get better for holding phone because curved screen annoying, please is anyone has one and tell about it and really want to buy it but curved screen. Also 12 or 12 r is big different in camera picture quality
@@TechGuyBeauI understand that you're not really complaining about the cameras on 12R but the cameras are better on 12. The processor is also better on 12. A really good and fun comparison from a Apple user point of view. Sub! 👍🏻😊
LOL Not sure why in the world you would think a budget phone would have "the most serious SOC for a Android" ??? Not even close. This uses a 1 year old soc and is mid tier at BEST. The Asus ROG 8 Pro and the Red Magic 9 Pro are both faster than the Iphone 15 in all benchmarks except the Geekbench single core score. Please do your research before making statements like that.
Very slow scrolling is a deal breaker for me. No idea how to fix it. I will probably have to return it. Plenty of comments about it on Reddit but no guru will tell you about it.

Good choice. The base model iphones aren't a good buy anymore. They are just missing too many features!!

Not the 10 pro tho. Last one was 9 series
And they fix that for free
Never had any issues with one plus. But I've heard about the green line issues.
What does everyone do for a case for these curved displays?
I just use the official one plus I show in the video. It seems fine so far
Just got 12r, but I don’t think I’ll get rid of my iPhone 13. For iPhone, the camera is still really good for daily photography and video shooting.
I use my iPhone mainly for RUclips now and as a FaceTime box. The android is what I use otherwise right now
Is it still the same? That's a pretty expensive RUclips box
I’m planning to upgrade from iPhone 13 128 to 12r. I’m impressed with the Oxygen is 15. Animations are buttery smooooooth…..
Trying to decide between the 12 and the 12r. Hard decision
Cost is a big different. The 12 has the better camera with optical zoom but you pay for it
Even the 12 is $500 cheaper than the 15 Pro Max. As I'm typing this they're on sale for $100 off. So that's a $600 difference. 😯
Get the 12R why pay $300 more ? Yes 12 is better but not $300 better unless you care about cameras

The real fear of buying a OnePlus 12R is the lack of a printable reference manual. The PDFs on the company's website are not paginated for reference, either for the 12R or for the Oxygen 14 OS. RUclips videos can only go so far--but not for someone learning a new style of phone. To further aggravate a potential buyer, OnePlus USA doesn't have any kind of e-mail mechanism whereby one could start a thread answering questions and concerns.
OnePlus user here. You can access the red cable club from the settings. It will link you to forums and customer service. You can chat with them if you have any inquiries. Haven't used that feature yet because the user interface is very intuitive... Or perhaps I'm just so used to OnePlus. Just explore the settings and tweak it to your liking.
1 month ago I traded my boring 15 pro max for S24 ultra and I'm glad I did that
green lines after update in OP11 and 12 and dead mother board in 9 and 10 series phones after so called UPDATE
Wow... did you get someone angry where you are getting your phones?
whats the numpad keyboard on the background?
It’s an Epomaker brand numpad. Still available on Amazon. If you can’t find it let me know I’ll give you a link
@@TechGuyBeau found it, Thank you so much!!
Looking forward to your follow up video! I love this phone, just waiting for your long-term review before buying. Subscribed
I should probably publish that yeah. Long story short it’s a superb phone. So long as you are fine without FaceTime or optical zoom get it. If you need optical zoom get the non r.
So they didn't improve typing experience on ios. I remember it was really bad. Didn't use for a long time, but have some shitty Samsung s10 work phone, I found out that it must be touch refresh rate that is bad, typing experience or using it fast brings like misclicks, it's just terrible experience.
It’s horrible and autocorrect makes iPhones unusable
I thought I had these issues on my 14 pro. The best keyboard I believe is of Samsung always registers correctly. On my one plus I use SwiftKey it's okay but not good as Samsung keyboard.
When I switch to ios it's terrible to type on it idk why
so, it is so evident that i have made a gigantic mistake at this stage after i had selected oneplus 12R over samsung s23 fe which had no doubt better cameras than this phone. let it be known that i had waited 4 years for this upgrade which was not much but I guess, you dont get what you really want in life
What was the price difference?
@@TechGuyBeausorry. I mean I had heard everything good about Samsung galaxy s 23 fe except it's camera but the flagship touch and cameras ... And then at the last moment I went with the word of mouth and bought this performance beast instead of the camera I wanted ..
@@Shifa379you picked wrong phone, if you need zoom lens.
@@loydloydloyd I was thinking to sell it and buy one plus 11 but have no money for that.
How to move your data and whatsapp to on12
Just use the same email or mobile number.
No telephoto?! Macro 2Mp?!
Their flagship model, Oneplus 12 does, but it will set you back another 350-400 dollars.
I just ordered one in July 2024. At least in the US Oneplus has a deal where you get $100 off instantly by trading in any phone working or not. I have a very low end phone I got for free via 2yrs of bill credits. So the 2 yrs are up and I am getting $100 for it.
The trade in is a nice feature.
Does it work with spectrum carriers?
Spectrum would not allow it ... they suck
Works with any carrier.
I hate review without selfi camera details.
I have never ever been taken a selfie. Why take a picture of myself when there are no many more interisting things to shot😅
Thank you for sharing us your objective review and comparison. Awesome and stay cool! 👍👌❤️
Subbed! 💪❤️
Just to let you know FYI Apple is made by Samsung Samsung isn't making their phones for years and the only thing really sent Apple really makes is their tablets and their computers but their phones in general are manufactured by Samsung and if you do not believe me take one apart and look inside you will see Samsung branded parts
They use Samsung screen only. Just the display
You have wrong one in your hand....try OnePlus 12 against iPhone
Yes 12 is superior to 12R but not $300 more superior.
how is the battery life compare to your iphone in your experience?
They seem pretty similar overall
Just switched to the s24 ultra from an iPhone 13 Pro Max . Just to play , great phone no doubt , but for sure I know that I will go back to iPhone in a couple of months , don’t know why , apple magic 😅? , iPhone just feels smoother and responsive more , don’t get me wrong the s24 ultra is dope fast and smooth but 9,/10 smooth if the iPhone is 10 . And the apps , so many apps are better designed on iPhone , why though / why they dint care about android apps .
If they are why does subway surfers and sonic dash lag on the last couple of iphones that came out? Lmfao so powerful they can't even optimize some old ass games. They don't lag at all on my s24 ultra but my iphone 13 is crap with almost anything other than cod mobile.
What was the year when Ip 13 came out? And it wasnt pro so no 120 hz!!
@@stopwatchg doesn't matter the pro to 60 hz models lag with games that they shouldn't be. My samsung doesn't. Proof is on apple forums.
@@robmalcolm8042 sure,laggy Sammy,worst brand ever,had them all,its not even as smooth as Dony or OnePlus,not to mention Iphone- and after two years of usage its so horrible to use.
Honestly!!! Iphone in 2024???? Fancy feel, but nothing else, so time to come down from the clouds. Easily can find android phones with same functionality.
How has your experience been using the phone with the real fast charging ?
Seems to charge quite fast, gets to 50% extremely fast
The 12R is really nice, probably the nicest in its price range, but it is not the most premium Android phone on the market.
Well done breakdown of the experience, by the by.
This whole video comes off as really not genuine. As your main phone you chose for yourself is the iPhone one. Actions speak louder than -advertisement- words. It's just bizarre to play down the iPhone to hype a phone you will ditch right after you've done doing your review.
I did switch, for over a month lol. And the point is to see how easy/hard it is as an iPhone user to go to android.
Not complicated
Bro discovers Android!
I have my 8t with green line 😂 no one plus anymore
my 1+ 9 pro did have 5 pink and green lines. what did i do? i traded it for 1+ 12.
still very happy 1+ user here.
If put case on it dose get better for holding phone because curved screen annoying, please is anyone has one and tell about it and really want to buy it but curved screen.
Also 12 or 12 r is big different in camera picture quality
You should have got the OnePlus 12 not the 12R
This one offers incredible Value for the price
@@TechGuyBeauI understand that you're not really complaining about the cameras on 12R but the cameras are better on 12. The processor is also better on 12. A really good and fun comparison from a Apple user point of view. Sub! 👍🏻😊
Yea no shit the more expensive variant would be better
The apple keyboard is depressing indeed. 😂
bro buys every iphone 😂
The pixel 7a takes better pictures and its cheaper. The nothing 2a is also much cheaper with better software
And in every other aspect the 12r is better
and in everything else, the 12r is waaaay better.
@@newfnshow031 you’re hating on oneplus in like all of his videos lmao it’s clear that you’re just mad that you don’t have one
7a is not close to this. Except cameras maybe. Probably can't tell any difference really.
LOL Not sure why in the world you would think a budget phone would have "the most serious SOC for a Android" ??? Not even close. This uses a 1 year old soc and is mid tier at BEST. The Asus ROG 8 Pro and the Red Magic 9 Pro are both faster than the Iphone 15 in all benchmarks except the Geekbench single core score. Please do your research before making statements like that.
It's literally the second best Android chip Einstein. Mid tier your ass
Cute 🐕
No re sale value for 1+
You don't switch from an Iphone you just play around with an android before you put it back in a draw
Except that I’m still using the android phone
Very slow scrolling is a deal breaker for me. No idea how to fix it. I will probably have to return it. Plenty of comments about it on Reddit but no guru will tell you about it.
I'm sure u got this for free and once the video is done you'll be going back to Apple, so I'll take your opinion with a bucket of salt.
I literally mentioned how much I paid for it……….,,
Several times
Hes gonna return it before the return period is up, then buy it again for his “long term” review. Ez scam 😂
That doesn’t even make sense tbh….
u crazy comparing budget phone with iphone flagship not the pro not the plus version the pro max hahaha what's wrong with u
That’s the point. 3x cheaper phone? Sometimes the price doesn’t justify what you get (aka iPhone).
@@TechGuyBeau I don't like the word u will get use to it, that's the first word u gonna heard from iphone users when u buy the first iphone, I don't like that apple made phones in the way they like, Android phone companies made it based on customer needs (aka Huawei)
#note
with all this enormous huge size the battery should be 6,000 milliamp at least let users use the phone for 3 days on the row why not, the Chinese phone is not better to have it, and what about screen dimming issues under the sunlight and with playing games u can't play for 30 minutes without extreme hot and screen dimming what the point of strong processor if you can't do anything with it, also make back gestures simple like Android, you can go back from left or right in all apps and menus no matter what, also you should support installing apps from outside of Apple store like everybody else give me more choices why not, put the charger in the box and make it fast 30 minutes for full charge at least we are in 2024' it's not that hard thing to do give people what they want bad apple

yeah you keep wiping the truth the important thing you got it (aka loser)
‘I’m switching’?! Still? What the hell is this? 2011? Lmao I bet you’ll have your sim back in you iPhone by this evening, if you even bothered to actually switch
I’ve been using it as my daily driver for about 2-3 weeks now.
Not everyone is in love with apple… it’s ok to like other things
And how is it 2011?.. I’ll bet if you compare the iPhone now from 2011 they would be the same old boring pile of apple shit
He doesn't even have a sim. It's esim in 2024
