Pros and Cons

OnePlus 13R

Strengths

The performance is still absolutely banging even for a bit of gaming.

It's a fair compromise for those who can't stretch to the 13
The design doesn't feel quite as premium or as comfortable either but that's forgivable given the price point.
Overall, it still offers great value for money, especially considering its lower price tag compared to the 13
It's a solid choice for those who want a capable phone without breaking the bank
The camera, while not as good as the 13, is still decent and can produce some great shots in good lighting conditions

Camera tech is less capable compared to the OnePlus 13, especially in high-contrast scenarios and macro shots
Lacks wireless charging support, which might be a deal-breaker for some
Design feels less premium and comfortable compared to the 13

OnePlus 13R

The OnePlus 13R is a trimmed-back version of its flagship sibling, sacrificing some premium features for a more affordable price point. While it retains the same performance punch, with snappy gaming capabilities and impressive battery life, some compromises have been made. The camera tech, although capable, falls short of the 13's more advanced setup, particularly in high-contrast scenarios. Design-wise, it feels less luxurious and comfortable, but a reworked alert slider is a welcome addition. Overall, the 13R offers a fair compromise for those on a tighter budget, but doesn't quite match its pricier counterpart.

Oppo K12 Plus

With a 50MP dual camera and lightweight design, this phone promises a seamless multimedia experience. The device also features a 6.7-inch screen, 120Hz refresh rate, and dual stereo speakers.
