OnePlus 12 Set to Dominate Brightness Levels in US Smartphone Market

Highlights

• OnePlus 12 is rumoured to feature a record-setting 2,600nits of screen brightness.
• Leaked reports suggest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, up to 24GB RAM, and 1TB storage.
• Camera setup to include a 50MP primary lens, 48MP ultrawide, and 32MP telephoto.
• Device expected to offer 5,400mAh battery with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging.

Set to dazzle the US smartphone landscape, the OnePlus 12 is rumoured to shine brighter than any of its mobile rivals, boasting unprecedented luminosity levels.

The most recent contender as of now is the Pixel 8 Pro with a claimed brightness level of 2,400nits. That’s bright.

But what about the OnePlus 12?

Well, leaked reports have indicated that the OnePlus 12 is likely to sport a panel with 2,600nits.

In terms of scale, that would certainly make the handset one of the brightest (literally) consumer electronic devices on the market.

Samsung is also purportedly upping the ante as far as screen luminosity is concerned.

Reports out of South Korea claim that the upcoming Galaxy S24 series might feature 2,500nits of peak brightness.

However, the OnePlus 12 claim has so far outstripped all its competitors.

Samsung or BOE Panel on the OnePlus 12?

The device is set to get a 6.7-inch OLED panel although it is not immediately clear if it is of a Samsung make or BOE.

For the better part of its existence, OnePlus has mostly relied on Samsung for its viewing experience, and for good reason, since the South Korean giant is the foremost authority on smartphone displays.

However, BOE is not far behind and is even supplying its displays for foldable devices, if reports are to be believed.

What is more than certain is that it will feature a QHD+ resolution (3,168 x 1,440 pixels) and 120Hz refresh rate, as is common for premium flagships these days.

Backing the high screen brightness will be the LTPO technology which can dynamically alter the refresh rate of the smartphone from 120Hz to 1Hz where required.

All in all the OnePlus 12 is more than likely to become a useful tool even under the harshest of sunlight outdoors.

Of course, any information provided above should be taken with a grain of salt till the company officially confirms the device’s specs.

OnePlus 12: Expected Specs

Based on multiple sources, the OnePlus 12 is slated to come equipped with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset and will offer a memory configuration of up to 24GB RAM along with a massive 1TB storage capacity.

In terms of photography, the smartphone is expected to feature a trio of cameras: a primary 50MP shooter with a quality akin to a 1-inch sensor, a 48MP lens for ultrawide shots, and a 32MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom capabilities.

Additionally, the device is said to be fuelled by a 5,400mAh battery, supporting 100W rapid wired charging and 50W swift wireless charging.
