OnePlus has confirmed that the upcoming OnePlus 12R handset will launch in both Europe and North America. The company confirmed as much during the ‘fireside chat’ on YouTube.
Before we continue, do note that the OnePlus R series was exclusive to India thus far. That same series launched in China under the ‘Ace’ brand, though. Those are the only two markets the devices were made available.
The OnePlus 12R will launch in Europe and North America, it’s official
That will be changing, however, on January 23. That is the global launch date for the OnePlus 12 series, as confirmed recently. OnePlus’ President, Kinder Liu, flat-out said: “Yes, in addition to India, this time we will launch the OnePlus 12R in North America, Europe, and other parts of the world as well”.
The OnePlus 12R will be quite powerful in its own right, at least based on the rumored specs. Previous OnePlus R phones were rather powerful as well, so this is not surprising. It will, however, be inferior to the OnePlus 12, of course.
The phone is expected to include a 6.7-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 will likely fuel the device, while a 5,500mAh battery is also rumored. 100W wired charging is also expected, and the charger will be included in the package.
The OnePlus 12R will include three cameras on the back, and Android 14 out of the box
A 50-megapixel main camera will be backed by a 32-megapixel telephoto camera, and an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera. Android 14 will come pre-installed on the phone, along with OxygenOS 14.
The OnePlus 12 will include a more powerful processor, a slightly larger display, a more powerful camera setup, and so on. It will still clearly be the flagship smartphone, but the OnePlus 12R could attract some people.
If OnePlus manages to get the price tag right for the OnePlus 12R, that phone could prove to be quite popular. The price tag will be extremely important.
