OnePlus has been a popular choice for people seeking high-quality, affordable smartphones. With the launch of its latest offering, the OnePlus 12, it’s time for OnePlus fans to pay close attention. While the device has only been launched in China so far, fans across the globe are eagerly waiting for its release in their respective countries.

For those who rely on wired headphones or earbuds, the presence of a headphone jack is a crucial factor in their decision to purchase a new device. While some manufacturers have done away with the jack, others have opted for alternative solutions like USB-C or wireless options.

Unfortunately, the OnePlus 12 model does not have a headphone jack. In fact, OnePlus hasn’t included one in its flagship devices for quite some time. Although it may be disappointing for individuals who are looking to use a wired connection to listen to music on their new smartphone, it shouldn’t be a complete surprise. Most smartphones, including the best ones of the year, no longer have headphone jacks.

Similar to the OnePlus 11, the only port available on the OnePlus 12 is its USB-C port. You’re sure to find wired headphones that work with this port that are among the best on the market.

In addition to using USB-C headphones, the OnePlus 12 also has Bluetooth 5.4 for use with wireless earbuds/headphones. And if you don’t mind listening to your audio externally, you can always use the phone’s stereo speakers.

The OnePlus 12 is expected to be launched globally in “early 2024,” including in the U.S.. The prices for the new handset worldwide have not yet been announced, but they are expected to be higher than the prices for the OnePlus 11. In China, the starting price for the base 12GB/256GB model is 4,299 yuan ($607), while the top-end 24GB/1TB model costs 5,799 yuan ($818), which is a 300 yuan ($42) increase from the OnePlus 11.

OnePlus surprises us with dazzling Android tablet and smartwatch

OnePlus has launched a new Android tablet and a desirable special edition of the OnePlus Watch 2, both in beautiful color schemes that make us want them both right now. Unfortunately, that won't be easy if you live in the U.S.. The company has announced the OnePlus Pad Go tablet and OnePlus Watch 2 Nordic Blue edition smartwatch at an event in Helsinki, Finland, and both are currently only destined for a European release.

If you recognize the OnePlus Pad Go's name , it’s because the tablet was released in India last year, and it comes in the same stunning Twin Mint color scheme, which is as trendy as it gets. Although the company hasn't been forthcoming with all the details about the tablet, the specifications are unlikely to have changed from the model released in India. It has an 11.3-inch screen with a 2.4K (that’s 2408 x 1720 pixels) resolution, which it claims is currently the highest available on an Android tablet, and a 90Hz refresh rate.

OnePlus' merger back into its parent company, Oppo, has been both good and bad for the "Never Settle" brand. While OnePlus has seen a dismaying downfall in the quality of its previously distinctive interface, it has helped make up for that in camera performance -- thanks in large part to Oppo's partnership with imaging stalwart Hasselblad. That collaboration is rumored to bear fruit once again, this time in the form of a flip phone with a robust camera.

Owners of the OnePlus Watch 2 are about to receive a new software update that will improve the smartwatch in one key way. The OHealth v4.21.5 update adds a data migration feature that allows switching phones without losing health data, which wasn't possible previously. Android Authority first spotted the update.

Google's Wear OS 4 launched with the new data migration feature. However, it wasn't available on the OnePlus Watch 2 until now. Once you install the update, you can see a new option called "Migrate data" in the profile settings. To use this new tool, your old and new phones must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. You will also need to scan a QR code to initialize the migration process. If you are logged into the OHealth app, make sure that you sign in to the same account on both devices before migrating the data.
