OnePlus - 12 512GB (Unlocked) - Flowy Emerald

The phone first of all is priced solidly and goes on sale from time to time. The build is amazing and feels very good in hand. The screen is one of the brightest and sharpest on a phone I’ve seen. From having this phone for a bit the battery is subjective but in my experience where I use the phone all day I get all day battery life and then some. Personally I love oxygen OS and it’s fast and buttery smooth animations compared to Samsung one ui. This feels smooth as if not smoother than my iPhone 16 pro and pixel. The camera is big for me and it doesn’t disappoint. For the price of the phone undercutting many rivals by few hundred dollars it performs really well in all lighting conditions in my use. Its sharp and vivid pictures are something I enjoy looking at and sharing. Overall this phone is worth every penny. Only issue I have is curved display not the most practical but very luxurious.

I have been using this phone full time for approximately a month now after transferring from a Samsung S22+. The phone excels in many places but has a few detractors that are minor annoyances. Display is very good, and has options for changing resolution as well as refresh rate. Easily gets bright enough for outside use but wish it would dim lower. When looking straight on, a slight ghosting effect takes place due to the decision to curve the edge of the glass. (Photo attached) Camera is good a majority of the time, and the app has many features available. I've had issues with color accuracy in dim lighting, as well as poor shutter speed resulting in blurry photos that need to be retaken. In my experience shooting at 4k 60 FPS videos look excellent, and the microphones capture audio well. Battery life I am slightly let down by their claims. With resolution and refresh rate set to automatically adjust, I find myself charging the phone at the end of the day; typically with 20-30% remaining. Big plus is the charging, as the you can fully charge the phone from dead in under 30 minutes. Performance of the phone is great, I've experienced no slow downs and wouldn't expect to with 16 GB of RAM. There are a few small features Samsung incorporates into their operating system that I miss, and system/security updates are not as frequent. Speakers I have no input on as I typically listen on headphones. The customization and overall feel of the vibration motor is impressive. Build quality is nice, having a physical silent/vibrate/ring slider is a nice convenience to have, as well is the built in I.R. blaster. Design is subjective, I personally feel the camera array did not need to take up 25% of the back of the phone. Overall a great buy for the asking price of $899 as it easily hangs with or exceeds the more expensive flagship phones. I was able to purchase mine as an open box in excellent condition to make it an even better deal as well.

This is a great phone! The battery life is perfect. Lasts all day and more. Standby power is very low so it doesn't drain when you're not actually using it. I charge my phone at night wake up at 4 am for work and don't really touch it until lunchtime at noon and it's still at 99%. Charges ridiculously fast with the included charger. About 20 minutes for a full charge. I use an iPhone wireless charger at night for normal charging and it works perfectly. You only need the official wireless charger if you want to wireless charge at 50w. The camera is great. Some online reviews talk badly about it because the S24 camera is better but this camera is better than most phones out there. The chipset is super fast.Nothing seems to slow it down and so much RAM It never runs out. I'm extremely satisfied with it. It can be rooted easily too if that's important to you. Awesome phone!
