Hurry up and buy the OnePlus 12 flagship at a decidedly non-flagship price after a $150 discount
What could possibly be better than a high-end OnePlus 12R handset at a hefty (Prime-exclusive) discount well ahead of Amazon’s second Prime Day festival of the year? How about a higher-end OnePlus 12 for a whopping 150 bucks less than usual… with a Prime membership?
This is yet another surprising Amazon deal kicked off right in time for this year’s back-to-school shopping season but a good few months before the e-commerce giant’s traditional fall sales events. That’s why we don’t expect the $150 discount to last very long for either the 256 or 512GB storage variant of the OnePlus 12 flagship.
The former configuration packs a generous 12 gigs of RAM at a regular price of $799.99, while the latter model takes that memory count all the way up to 16GB for a typical cost of $899.99. You obviously don’t need to trade anything in to slash a cool 150 bucks off your OnePlus 12 version of choice, but you may have to hurry and you already need to settle for a black colorway as far as the cheaper model is concerned or a green hue if you can afford the more expensive one.
Our OnePlus 12 review a while back praised this bad boy for everything from its sleek and ergonomic design to that unbelievably bright screen and the overall system performance. Of course, there’s no such thing as a perfect phone, with the OnePlus 12’s imperfections including occasionally high temperatures under heavy load and middling software support compared to Samsung and Google’s best mobile devices right now.
All in all, however, it’s really hard to argue with the value equation of an absolute Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 powerhouse with a decidedly premium construction, exceptionally versatile camera system, and massive battery with blazing fast charging capabilities. And that’s undeniably true even if we consider the imminent launch of an undoubtedly improved OnePlus 13 super-flagship.
