Fresh off its Chinese launch, the OnePlus 12 has already been taken apart by tech experts at WekiHome. The teardown itself follows a standard procedure, but it offers a fascinating look at the phone’s well-organized internals and its impressive cooling system. 

While the video covers all the small details, we will cover the main highlights in this story.

The first thing that strikes you is the clean layout of the internal components. The motherboard and other crucial parts are neatly tucked under a three-piece plastic cover. The cover holds the wireless charging pad, NFC antenna, LED flash, and ambient light sensor.

After it’s removed, we get a clear view of the phone’s impressive camera sensors. The OnePlus 12 boasts a powerful 50MP Sony LYT-808 primary sensor with OIS, a 64MP OmniVision OV64B sensor with an OIS-assisted 3x periscope zoom lens, and a 48MP Sony IMX581 ultrawide unit with autofocus. 

The teardown also shed light on the smartphone’s upgraded haptics motor, which OnePlus claims is 18% more powerful and 60% faster than previous iterations.

The teardown goes further, meticulously removing layers to expose the massive vapor chamber nestled beneath the screen. Particularly, OnePlus has opted for a substantial 9,140mm² VC (Vapor Chamber) cooling system, which covers an impressive area of 38,547mm². 

This behemoth of a cooling system should allow the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor to sustain peak performance even during demanding tasks.

The teardown also reveals several rubber gaskets, which contribute to the phone’s IP65 water resistance rating. This means the OnePlus 12 can withstand splashes and light rain, making it suitable for everyday use.

The OnePlus 12 teardown paints a picture of a meticulously designed flagship. The impressive camera system, powerful cooling solution, and water resistance highlight OnePlus’ commitment to delivering a truly high-end experience.
