OnePlus is gearing up to launch its next flagship smartphone, the OnePlus 12, which is expected to offer some impressive features and specifications. One of the most anticipated aspects of the phone is its battery and charging capabilities, which have been revealed by a recent certification.
According to a report by Android Central, the OnePlus 12 has received 3C certification in China, which confirms that the phone will support 100W wired charging. This is the same charging speed that the OnePlus 11 offers in most markets, except for the US, where it supports 80W wired charging.
100W charging is extremely fast and can fully recharge a phone in 25 minutes, while it reaches the 50% mark in only 10 minutes. The OnePlus 12 is expected to come with a 11V/9.1A charger in the box, which will deliver this super-fast charging speed.
OnePlus 12 to bring back 50W wireless charging
Another exciting feature that the OnePlus 12 is rumored to have is 50W wireless charging. This feature was absent in the OnePlus 11, but was present in some previous OnePlus models. According to trusted sources, the OnePlus 12 will support 50W wireless charging, which is also very fast and convenient.
50W wireless charging can charge a phone from 0 to 100% in 43 minutes, and from 0 to 50% in 18 minutes. This is comparable to some wired charging speeds of other flagship phones. The OnePlus 12 will likely require a special wireless charger to achieve this speed, which may or may not be included in the box.
OnePlus 12 to sport a huge 5,400mAh battery
The OnePlus 12 is also expected to have a significantly larger battery capacity than its predecessors. According to a leak from Smartprix x OnLeaks, the phone will have a 5,400mAh battery, which is a big jump from the 4,500mAh battery of the OnePlus 11.
A larger battery capacity means that the phone will have a longer battery life and endurance, which is always a welcome feature for smartphone users. The OnePlus 12 will also have a power-efficient Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and a QHD+ OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, which will further enhance the battery performance.
OnePlus 12 to launch soon with other amazing features
The OnePlus 12 is expected to launch soon, possibly this month, as it has already appeared on several certification and benchmarking platforms. The phone will have other amazing features, such as a high-end Lytia dual-layer stacked camera sensor from Sony, 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage as the base configuration, and OxygenOS 14 based on Android 14.
The OnePlus 12 will be a monster phone that will compete with the best flagships in the market. It will also be more expensive than the OnePlus 11, but hopefully not by a huge margin. The OnePlus 12 will surely be a phone to watch out for in 2023.
