We're just half an hour away from the big reveal of OnePlus's newest flagship phones, and we can't wait to see what they have in store for us. One of the most impressive features we've heard about is the insane brightness of 4500 nits on both models. That's like staring at the sun. Of course, we'll have to see how that translates to real-world performance, and we'll be sure to let you know in our reviews.

The OnePlus 12 will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. The Chinese variant of the device comes with up to 24 GB of RAM and 1 TB of internal storage. But there is a chance that RAM could be limited to just 16 GB for the global variant, while the entry-level variant might get an upgrade from 8 GB to 12 GB.

The OnePlus 12R will use the previous generation Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and will come with up to 16GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage. Its performance is expected to be similar to the OnePlus 11. The phone will have a 6.78-inch AMOLED screen with a 1.5k resolution and 120 Hz refresh rate and up to 1600 nits of peak brightness.

The OnePlus 12 will come with a triple camera setup featuring Sony’s 8MP LYT-808 wide-angle lens, 48MP Sony IMX481 ultra-wide angle lens, and a 64MP OV64B telephoto lens with support for 3X telephoto lens. The selfie camera will also get a much-awaited upgrade in the form of a 32-megapixel sensor that will support 4k video recording.

The company earlier announced that the OnePlus 12 will feature Pixelworks’ X7 independent visual processor in a bid to offer much better visual quality while gaming. The device will come with a “HyperRendering” feature that will allow it to deliver 2k resolution visuals at 120fps with ultra-low latency.
