The OnePlus 12 succeeds the OnePlus 11 as OnePlus's flagship, improving on the older model in three main areas: processor, battery, and camera zoom. The OnePlus 11 runs the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 — a chip that still handles daily tasks, photo editing, and most modern games without trouble. The OnePlus 12 moves to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, built on the same 4nm process but with newer cores that give it a meaningful edge in graphics-heavy tasks and long-term future-proofing.

You can buy a smartphone through Easy EMIs when your preferred model is eligible and available at a partner store, making it simple to upgrade without paying the full amount upfront. Here is what the process looks like.

• Visit more than 1.5 lakh partner stores across 4,000+ cities, including Jaipur, Lucknow, Kochi, and Bhopal
• Choose your preferred model and use the Bajaj Finance Insta EMI Card or Easy EMI Loan
• Convert the purchase cost into Easy EMIs that suit your monthly budget

Pro tip: Zero down payment is available on select models, so ask the store executive if your chosen smartphone qualifies before you check out.

Both phones deliver flagship-level performance, but the OnePlus 12's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 scores meaningfully higher than the OnePlus 11's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 across every benchmark. On Geekbench 6, the OnePlus 12 posts a multi-core score of 6,511 against the OnePlus 11's 5,590 — a gap that translates to faster app switching and quicker exports when editing photos or video. The Adreno 750 GPU in the OnePlus 12 also pulls ahead of the Adreno 740 on graphics tests, which matters most for anyone who plays demanding mobile games. Scores can vary slightly depending on software updates, testing conditions, and the storage variant tested.

The OnePlus 12 is the stronger performer overall, though the OnePlus 11's Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 remains capable for most everyday use — social media, streaming, and casual gaming. Buyers who play graphics-intensive games at high settings, or plan to keep their phone for several years, get more future-proofing from the OnePlus 12. For lighter daily use, the gap is unlikely to be noticeable in practice. Both phones sit well ahead of most mid-range devices at comparable price points.

Pro tip: If mobile gaming at high graphics settings is a priority, the OnePlus 12's GPU compute score — nearly 55% higher than the OnePlus 11's — makes it the safer long-term pick.

→ Does the OnePlus 12 support wireless charging in India?

Yes, the OnePlus 12 supports 50 W wireless charging using OnePlus's AIRVOOC standard, in addition to 100 W wired charging. This lets you charge the phone by simply placing it on a compatible wireless charging pad, without plugging in a cable each time, which is handy for topping up at your desk or bedside table. The OnePlus 12 also supports 10 W wireless reverse charging, so you can use it to top up other devices, such as wireless earbuds, by placing them on the back of the phone. The OnePlus 11 does not offer any form of wireless charging and relies only on its 100 W wired SUPERVOOC charger, so buyers who specifically want a cable-free charging routine should choose the OnePlus 12.

→ How much RAM do the OnePlus 11 and OnePlus 12 offer?

The OnePlus 11 comes in 8GB, 12GB, and 16GB RAM options in India, while the OnePlus 12 is available in 12GB and 16GB RAM variants. Both use the newer LPDDR5X RAM type, which helps apps stay open in the background for longer without reloading. For most people who use social media, streaming apps, and light gaming, 8GB or 12GB RAM is enough for smooth day-to-day use. Buyers who multitask heavily, switching between many apps, editing photos, or playing graphics-heavy games for long sessions, get more benefit from the 16GB option on either phone, since it keeps more apps active in memory at once.

→ Which OnePlus phone has the better camera zoom, the OnePlus 11 or the OnePlus 12?

The OnePlus 12 has the better zoom camera of the two. It uses a 64MP periscope telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, while the OnePlus 11 uses a 32MP telephoto lens limited to 2x optical zoom. In practical terms, this means the OnePlus 12 can capture a clearer, more detailed photo of a distant subject, such as a performer on stage or wildlife at a park, without needing to move closer. Both phones share a similar 50MP main camera and 48MP ultra-wide camera, so the difference between them is most noticeable when you zoom in rather than in standard wide shots.
