Instead of going all-in on AI, the OnePlus 12 is a more straightforward device centered around a big 6.8-inch screen and a speedy new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip. It also has a very capable triple camera setup along with increasingly rare features like an IR blaster. And while it’s still not quite as good as what’s available from competitors, the 12’s IP65 rating for dust and water resistance is the best we’ve seen on any OnePlus phone to date. But the best things about this phone are its truly excellent battery life and an $800 price that’s $200 less than an equivalent S24+. And that’s before you factor in any deals or promos.
