According to a well-known tipster, the OnePlus 12 will be even brighter than you think. This information comes from Ice Universe, one of the best-known tipsters in the industry.
The OnePlus 12 display could be even brighter than initially reported
In a post on X, he said that the OnePlus 12 display “far exceeds 2,600 nits” of brightness. That is the number that was initially shared by BOE, when it announced the X1 display. The tipster claims that the brightness will peak at 4,000 nits.
This is very odd. Why? Well, if the display has the ability to reach 4,000 nits, why wouldn’t BOE market that to begin with? It’s a very odd situation. In any case, 2,600 nits of brightness is plenty, 4,000 is… way above everything else on the market.
Just to give you some perspective. The OnePlus Open has two displays, and both of them are current record-holders in the brightness department. Those displays go up to 2,800 nits, maximum.
If true, that panel will be in a class of its own
Those two panels are followed by the display on the OPPO Find X6 Pro, that panel goes up to 2,600 nits. For comparison’s sake, the Galaxy S23 Ultra peaks at 1,750 nits, the iPhone 15 Pro Max at 2,000 nits, and the Pixel 8 Pro at 2,400 nits.
Just to be clear, all those displays are plenty bright, even the Galaxy S23 Ultra. They rarely come close to their maximum potential, that’s how bright they are. So you can imagine what 4,000 nits will offer, as that’s double what the iPhone 15 Pro Max is able to achieve.
We’ll have to wait and see if that’s true, though, as BOE reported 2,600 nist of peak brightness. Perhaps that’s where it will cut off the display, even though it’s able to go higher than that? That’s another possibility, as 2,600 nits is even more than needed.
The BOE X1 display was announced a couple of days ago, and it will be included in OnePlus and OPPO flagship phones. The OnePlus 12 is confirmed to use it, and the OPPO Find X7 Pro will likely include it too.
