I'm Switching? - An iPhone User's Experience with the the OnePlus 12R

Ойын-сауық

The OnePlus 12R cost 3-4x LESS than my iPhone.. but can it get me to switch?!
I will have a long term follow review as well with much more in depth testing after 30-60 days.

    Its a technological limitation. Samsung and Apple use Li-ion batteries everyone else uses Li-Po. Li-Po are cheaper, safer, cooler and thats why they are easier to fast charge but they have on average 50% the total cycle count compared to Li-ion. If anything though Samsung especially should know that their preference for this battery really affect their phones with their swelling within 3 years and explosion problems in the past.

    Comment from someone trying to move from a flip phone to a smartphone. The real fear of buying a OnePlus 12R is the lack of a printable reference manual. The PDFs on the company's website are not paginated for reference, either for the 12R or for the Oxygen 14 OS. KZread videos can only go so far--but not for someone learning a new style of phone. To further aggravate a potential buyer, OnePlus USA doesn't have any kind of e-mail mechanism whereby one could start a thread answering questions and concerns.

    LOL Not sure why in the world you would think a budget phone would have "the most serious SOC for a Android" ??? Not even close. This uses a 1 year old soc and is mid tier at BEST. The Asus ROG 8 Pro and the Red Magic 9 Pro are both faster than the Iphone 15 in all benchmarks except the Geekbench single core score. Please do your research before making statements like that.
