This Could Be the OnePlus 12: First Renders Revealed

The OnePlus 12 Design

OnePlus has been making waves with its upcoming flagship smartphone, the OnePlus 12. We have already received information about its possible specifications and launch timeline. Now, we finally get a glimpse of the highly anticipated device through the leaked renders. Let’s take a closer look.

The OnePlus 12 Renders

Renowned tipster OnLeaks, in partnership with Smartprix, has shared some glossy black OnePlus 12 renders. It’s worth noting that more color options are expected to be available. The renders showcase a design reminiscent of the OnePlus 11, featuring a prominent circular camera bump in the top left corner and a nearly bezel-less display.

Hasselblad Partnership

OnePlus continues to emphasize its commitment to the imaging experience by prominently displaying the Hasselblad branding. However, what truly catches the eye is the inclusion of a separate camera lens located outside the camera bump. This is likely a periscope lens, a feature that has been rumored to debut on a OnePlus device this year. The addition of a periscope lens will significantly enhance the zooming capabilities of the OnePlus 12, which currently offers a limited 2x optical zoom.

Periscope Lens: Becoming a Standard

The inclusion of a periscope lens in the OnePlus 12 seems to be more than just a speculation, especially as Apple is also expected to adopt this technology in its upcoming iPhone 15 Pro Max. We will have to wait and see if this feature becomes a reality. The anticipated release date for the OnePlus 12 is in December (starting with China), so we can expect further information and confirmation during that time.

Other Exciting Features

In addition to the periscope lens, the OnePlus 12 is rumored to come equipped with the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, which is expected to be announced in October. The device is also likely to feature a 2K curved display with a high refresh rate, a large 5,000mAh battery with 150W fast charging support, OxygenOS 14 based on Android 14, and a versatile triple rear camera setup consisting of a 50MP primary lens, a 50MP ultra-wide lens, and a 64MP periscope lens. To complete the package, a 32MP selfie shooter might also be included.

Final Thoughts

As the launch of the OnePlus 12 is still a few months away, it’s essential to take these details with a grain of salt and wait for official announcements from OnePlus. We will keep you updated as more information becomes available. In the meantime, feel free to share your thoughts on the OnePlus 12 design in the comments section below.
