EDITORIAL: Being Oppo's "flagship killer" brand, OnePlus 12 does a great job. Fast performance, long battery life with sub-30min charging 0-100%, excellent screen and a very capable camera setup. Combined with a right price and you have a brand-building success (without full IP68 protection).
PROs
aluminium and glass build, fast Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with UFS 4.0 performance, excellent 36hr endurance from a 5400mAh battery with sub-30min 100W (80W in USA) charging (50W wireless), sharp 510ppi LTPO AMOLED screen with >2000Hz PWM and Dolby Vision, excellent 50MP 23mm OIS main + 64MP 70mm OIS periscope telephoto + 48MP 14mm ultrawide (all with PDAF) imaging, very good 32MP 21mm selfie, 4 years of OS updates and a fast USB-C 3.2 with OTG
CONs
wider and heavier then 11, 1100nits max brightness, only IP65 (no water immersion) protection, no AF on excellent selfie, no expandable memory or desktop replacement functionality, no video out

EDITORIAL: Oppo's sub-brand Realme comes with a very capable midranger that you should know about. It offers good performance, great battery endurance, 144Hz refresh bright screen with all the works, above average tripple-50MP imaging setup (lacks advanced software processing) and attractive build that was considered premium a few years ago. The compromises are short(er) OS support, lack of wireless charging and not-so-loud stereo speaker setup.
PROs
good build, good SD 7 Gen 4 with UFS 3.1 performance, close to 42hr endurance from a 7000mAh lithium battery (there is a Si-C battery version with even longer endurance) with sub-60min 80W charging, high quality >1800nits bright 450ppi OLED screen with HDR10+ and >4000Hz PWM dimming rate, IP69 protection with added Military standard impact protection, very good imaging from a 50MP 24mm OIS PDAF main + better then average 50MP 16mm ultrawide setup, good 50MP 22mm fixed focus selfie, above average video recording
CONs
big and hard to handle with one hand, lack of wireless charging, some image processing missteps, some inconsistencies in video recording, only 3 years of updates of mature and stable OS, weaker speaker setup then the competition
