It is not easy to shine in a high-end product that is increasingly reaching the top in hardware. OnePlus is clear on how to find a niche: based on value for money. OnePlus 12 is a terminal that we were able to test recently, although it is unknown what will happen as soon as it lands in Europe.
We already know this. The fact that this phone can be bought in Spain for less than 1,000 euros is a very important competitive advantage, given that it does not cut a single spec, starts from 12 + 256 GB and the photo section promises.
OnePlus 12 price and availability
OnePlus 12 will be available in Spain for 2,500 TL 969 euros for the basic version, 12+256GB. It will be available for purchase both from the OnePlus website and from the brand’s authorized distributors starting from January 23.
Additionally, if we buy it within the first 48 hours, it comes with the Bang & Olufsen Beoplay Portal headset as well as OnePlus Buds 2 Pro as a gift.
This is a price well below the almost 1,500 euros that its main rivals, the iPhone 15 Pro Max and the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, cost. Although the company has lost the “Pro” surname, OnePlus 12 is a device that has no shortcomings.
It comes with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, the best processor in the Android market. The 5,400mAh battery with 100W fast charging and the new panel also appear for the first time BOE X1 with 2K resolution and 4,500 nits maximum brightness.
The camera is Sony’s, with the LYT-808 showing very good results in OnePlus Open. This is accompanied by a 48 megapixel ultra wide angle and 64 megapixel telephoto lens signed by Omnivision.

In short, the OnePlus 12 is a device that, at least on its technical page, is a clear rival to any of the high-end premium devices we currently have (and are coming) on the market.
If you’re wondering about support, it’s good to know that OnePlus guarantees four years of system updates for this phone. Its life cycle is a little shorter than other competitors (Google, Samsung and Apple), but it is more than valuable for this terminal.
