TheOnePlus12 is heavily tipped to be coming this side of Christmas, with a launch in December being the safest bet. And that looks even more convincing now, considering the company’s own president has posted photos he took using the forthcoming phone.
Li JieLouis took to the Chinese social media platform Weibo to show three images taken using the OnePlus 12. They were taken using the main camera and, what seems to be, at least one taken using the telephoto lens.
9to5Googleclaims that it seems to be the same camera as found on the new OnePlus Open, with the telephoto image being a 3x zoom with a 6x crop.

It’s also hard to tell exactly how well the rear cam will perform from the images he offers – not least because they have been compressed for posting online – but the colour balance seems decent and there are no obvious artefacts.
According to anearlier post on Weibo, this time from a tipster, the OnePlus 12 is said to be using a newSonyLytia sensor. This will debut in the phone, it is claimed, although there are few other details.
Previous rumours have stated that the main camera will sport a 50-megapixel sensor (the Sony IMX966) but that no longer seems to be the case. As the OnePlus Open also uses a Sony Lytia sensor, it is far more likely to be a variant employed in the OnePlus 12 too.

Hopefully, we won’t have too long to wait to find out. OnePlus is expected to announce its new flagship for the Chinese market in December and then roll it out globally early next year.
We should therefore see the replacement to one of thebest Android phonesof the year – theOnePlus 11– on these shores around February 2024. That’s just in time for Mobile World Congress, so it could be an exciting show on the horizon.
