OnePlus is all set to release OnePlus 12R alongside the OnePlus 12 in India. It is expected to launch in late January 2024, with a typical launch planned for January 23. This is a notable event as it is the first time the 'R' series will be seen outside India. The OnePlus 12R is rumored to be unveiled in China on January 4, 2023.
Leaks suggest it will have a stylish metal frame and be powered by last year's top processor, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC.
The OnePlus 12R is likely to come with a 6.78-inch AMOLED screen, offering a 120Hz refresh rate thanks to LTPO technology. This means smoother visuals and better display quality.

At its core, the OnePlus 12R will have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, ensuring fast and efficient performance. It's also expected to include the latest LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 storage, which means more speed and storage space for users.
One of the big draws of the OnePlus 12R is its battery life. It's rumoured to have a 5,500mAh battery that supports 100W fast charging. In India, the phone is expected to run on Oxygen OS 14, based on Android 14, while the Chinese version might have Color OS 14.
Camera-wise, the OnePlus 12R is said to feature a 50MP main camera with optical image stabilization, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 16MP front camera for selfies and video calls. This setup suggests that the phone will be quite capable in photography and videography.
