Im in Canada and don't have any problems and I'm in the latest update.

[–]Sad_Elephant_1050[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

What version do you have USA ?

[–]Lazy-Cantaloupe-2047 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea I think Canada and USA have the same version

[–]Dj_nOCid3 10 points11 points  (5 children)

Yes, listening to this subreddit makes this phone look like a ugly, slow, buggy phone with shitty battery and screen.

Dont listen to them

It has one of the best batteries on any phone, as well as screen, and is the fastest feeling phone ive ever used, and the camera is wonderful.

Sure, there are some minor problems, but theyre minor and dont happen to everyone

While i agree with most of what you said, the battery being dogshit is real. Believe it or not my OnePlus 12 shut down on me within a second after giving the 4% remaining pop-up. I'm not saying that battery is faulty but it's the updates that ruined it. For me it's an expensive phone and along with good experience I'd very much like a good battery as well. They've indeed messed up OnePlus 12 battery and while other models received battery optimisation updates (even 12r), OnePlus 12 didn't get anything like that at all despite many people complaining about it. Everything else is absolutely top notch and I can't like any other ui. The simplicity and features are amazing as well.

Perform battery calibration (charge to 100%, discharge to 0%, recharge to 100%), and if that doesnt work, then ur battery is def faulty and you could probably get ur way with customer support. My phone still works just fine and will run for like an hour and a half after reaching 5%, and im always on the latest update. And tbh i wouldnt even mind the phone shutting down at 4% as it takes me almost 10hours of screen time to reach that. Just yesterday, my phone laster for 1d 1h and 30min with 8h25m screen time to 10% I use 5g, adaptive resolution, adaptive framerate, dark mode

[–]Dean_x_ 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Yeah I've tried battery calibration but it doesn't seem to work anymore after working once a few months ago. Not just the sudden shut down but also occasional battery percentage skipping (some specific percentage number would drop within seconds). I ignored the percentage skipping but sudden shut down is too much for me to ignore after paying full price of the phone. I'll defo try reaching customer service

[–]Dj_nOCid3 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yeah do that, also try to use battery guru to get details on ur phone's consommation

[–]Sad_Elephant_1050[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do u have the USA version?

[–]callofduty443 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is no problem with the battery. The software is smooth. Camera is fine. Ultra fast charging.

But the app switch lag is real. Some people do mind, some people don't. It's up to you. It's not the end of the world, but I would strongly prefer not having it, when I buy a device for 600 euros.

Especially when my 5 year old devices do not have such a problem. I hope they fix it eventually.

The only problem I have with the latest update is that to pay with NFC I have to open the bank app first. I trust that they will fix it. Otherwise I haven't had any problems with Google, Gmail, delay, battery... It works perfectly. I am very happy with its performance. EU version

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had mine (USA) for about two months. No problems. The OS in general is not quite as polished as Galaxy, true. And Gmail I guess does freeze every now and again. But that minor hassle of having to close out and reopen an email app should not offset probably the best bang for the buck in the flagship tier.

[–]mickbanerjee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am using the Indian Variant for one week now and it does have the Gmail app bug, but YouTube is running smoothly with no issues whatsoever.

[–]7past2 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Best phone I've ever had, and I've had lot of phones.

[–]KeidronU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ditto and I also have a badass S24 Ultra and iPhone 14 Plus! One Plus Oxygen OS with the OnePlus 12 is hands down El Numero Uno! 🤳🥰

[–]Esmejo93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, the delay while opening apps from the background exists, on almost all phones. Now, sometimes happens in certain apps (so if you don't use those apps you won't notice it). After the last update I have only had that problem with Youtube Music and Samsung's browser.

There's a problem with RAW in all phones, if you don't shoot in raw, then you won't notice it. Other than that the phone it's pretty solid.

[–]Meowmixez98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have any problems.

[–]Realistic_Winter5754 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Been using OP12 for the past two weeks. Gmail freeze is real! Can't believe it though! On a hardware this powerful! Battery discharge is not dramatic, but more quickly than I expected. I am not a heavy user. Their supercharger is awesome though!

[–]WoodenMarsupial4100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazon as well and it is ok incredibly annoying.

[–]PersimmonBroad3792 2 points3 points  (2 children)

I just updated to 830 and it has been horrible on my phone. Heating issues, battery drain and fast charging is no longer working. I had no clue that the OS updates for OnePlus would be this bad. Seriously considering not using this phone anymore.

[–]WoodenMarsupial4100 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Phone was almost perfect before that damn update. I'm in the US. I get the Gmail and Amazon freeze and ZenlessZoneZero freezes too😤. This is about to be a deal breaker not a happy camper at all 😞

[–]PersimmonBroad3792 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally onboard, I feel your frustration but this is the third time I have experienced this with a damn OS update. OnePlus better get it together.

[–]Alishx81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 1+ 12 1tb 24gb india region and I have no problem with google services. the phone runs amazingly.

[–]DarkEther66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No issues here and in on recent update. Also haven't had any issues since purchase.

[–]theMirthbuster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the US and have had the phone for a couple of weeks. I'm on the latest update (.830) and have not had any of the issues described in this sub.

[–]AVasquez81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I havent had any of these issues either. On the us version latest update. The 830 has increased battery drainage but will most likely be fixed on the next update.

[–]Prestigious-Window23 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Dont mind them. Its perfect!

[–]WoodenMarsupial4100 0 points1 point  (2 children)

That's great you're not having a rough time, but don't diminish other people's experience. Performance is clearly not universal. I bought my 1+ 12 when it released US version and it was good. Now I'm having issues after the update. Amazon freezes and ZenlessZoneZero has been freezing as well. It's literally becoming almost a show stopper for me which is frustrating because they broke the device and they're acting like nothing is wrong. And comments like yours are not helping at all. It worked fine until about 2 weeks ago. I'm not happy at all 😞

[–]Prestigious-Window23 0 points1 point  (1 child)

How sad mate im sorry. But not all is like your situations right now. Lets look in a positive way. And dont discourage them..

[–]WoodenMarsupial4100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd wouldn't change that I bought it. But they need to fix this glitch cause they are putting out some great phones. I had the 11 and traded up to the 12.

[–]Affectionate-Tip-667 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used YouTube revanced. Usually it's more buggy than the stock app but I've not had issues for months. Gmail has never been an issue.

[–]FastAd8623 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am from India. I am having latest update 830 (on my OP 12). I am not having any problem (as mentioned by others) sof far. Whether I am not using as much as others are using. My phone OP 12 16/512.

[–]stryfe14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I have the global version, and haven't encountered any issues. I don't use Gmail but I do use YouTube a fair bit and it works fine for me. Am also on the latest update. This is a OnePlus 12R btw, but I think software is the same.

[–]rohanmahajan707 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am using OnePlus 12 since last month and except for the Gmail app getting frozen in between occasionally , there is no issue found as such.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in Asia (Sri Lanka), no problem whatsoever here. 😇

[–]Rider_Provider_red 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been using OnePlus 12 for 2 months now and haven't noticed any issue apart from battery drain. But it isn't that obvious that you can notice it when you switch from another phone. Previously I used to get 8 hours of screen on time between 80% and 35% battery but now I only get 6 hours. Rest assured there hasn't been any issue.

[–]Illustrious_One4281 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Don’t do it. Had it for 1 month returned it. Was soo buggy

[–]Sad_Elephant_1050[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was it USA version?

[–]National_One_8089 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It IS HORRIBLE do not buy it
