Here is the OnePlus 11 phone that we have been anticipating and monitoring all its leaks over the past weeks. It comes to us with its glory and greatness to shake the throne of competitors’ phones with its advanced cameras and break records with its revolutionary specifications.
Finally, after a long wait, the Chinese company OnePlus announces its 2023 flagship, the OnePlus 11 phone, as a preliminary launch in its mainland, China. It is scheduled to be launched worldwide on the seventh of February. And by 100%, the global model will have the same specifications as the Chinese model without any differences, but the only noticeable exception may be the RAM capacity and storage options.
OnePlus 11 is official
Although the phone is still a long way from making its way into the hands of third-party reviewers, thanks to this initial launch, we can expect what we’ll be able to see next month.
In terms of the leaks that we were getting, they were very correct, especially when it comes to the amazing design of the phone. In fact, OnePlus has shared a bunch of amazing renders revealing the phone’s design on its official account a few days ago.
We have seen how elegant this phone is really in terms of look and feel, although there are no fundamental differences between it and the OnePlus 10 Pro phone, however, it will be easy to distinguish between both phones thanks to the rear camera island design.
Speaking of the overall design, the phone has a curved screen and features a glass design and frames made of high-quality aluminum metal. As usual, the hole punch for the front camera is located in the upper left corner of the screen.
On the back of the phone is the circular island that houses three cameras and a Flash LED light unit printed with the logo of Hasselblad, the leading Swedish optical technology company. It is also easy to see that the rear island is attached to the left frame of the phone.
The edges of the phone are very slim, and the iconic slider alert button is available on the right side, which gives the user the ability to switch the phone’s sound modes between normal, silent mode, and vibrate mode. The company logo is clearly visible in the middle of the back side. The phone is available in only two colors, green and black, but the colors may be marketed with decorative names such as Mate Black and Glossy Green when the time comes for its worldwide launch.
SD 8 Gen 2 processor and tons of RAM
As for the technical specifications of the phone, we will find that the company used the leading Qualcomm processor Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC manufactured by TSMC with a manufacturing accuracy of 4 nanometers, and it is currently the latest chips of Qualcomm and the most powerful processing chips on the Android platform.
The company also used the OnePlus 11 with the new generation of LPDDR5X RAM and ultra-fast UFS 4.0 internal storage.
The phone is available in the Chinese market in a typical form, one with 12 GB of RAM, while the other with 16 GB of RAM. The 12GB model includes 256GB of storage, while the 16GB model is available in 256 or 512GB of storage.
The screen is a 6.7-inch AMOLED LTPO 3.0 display panel, with a 120Hz refresh rate, QHD + resolution, and ultra-high brightness rates of up to 1300 lumens, with support for HDR10 + and Dolby Vision visuals.
Enough battery and insane charging speed… BUT
The beast draws its energy from a massive 5000mAh battery that supports 100W fast wired charging. But the strange thing here is that wireless charging is not included in the list of phone specifications, which means that the phone does not support wireless charging, or at least this is what we believe so far because it is not mentioned in the list of specifications. Each phone comes with a 100-watt charger included in the purchase box.
Also, the IP68 rating was not mentioned in the specifications of the phone, which means that it is unable to resist water and dust, and it will be difficult to use it in harsh environments or underwater.
Unfortunately, these sacrifices may greatly affect phone sales, given that the OnePlus 10 Pro phone supported wireless charging and was rated IP68. However, we will have to wait for a while until we are better sure of these subtleties.
The phone supports Bluetooth 5.3 and WiFi 6 connectivity, and of course it provides support for 5G networks, thanks to the modem built into the Qualcomm processor.
Let’s move on to the most exciting specifications that shine in the camera department, as the phone comes with amazing photographic capabilities that photography enthusiasts and professionals will certainly welcome.
OnePlus 11 has a 50MP Sony IMX890 main camera sensor with OIS and PDAF super wide-field sensor for the 48MP Sony IMX581 ultra-wide lens and the third camera is a 32MP IMX709 telephoto camera with telephoto 2x optical.
The front camera has a resolution of 16 megapixels. The camera was designed in collaboration with Hasselblad for color tuning of the lenses and optimization of the camera’s software algorithm.
OnePlus 11 price
The phone is shipped with the Color OS 13 interface based on the Android 13 system, but the global model will be shipped with the Oxygen OS 13 interface. The phone is available in China at a selling price of 3999 Chinese yuan, equivalent to $ 580, but it is expected that it will be sold at a higher cost when it is launched in the market. Globalism.
