The OnePlus 12 is set to be unveiled in China next week on 4 December. Ahead of the phone’s launch, the company revealed the design of the upcoming flagship phone. Not only is the OnePlus 7 offered in a rather sleek-looking Flowy Emerald colourway, the alert slider has also been repositioned. Previously positioned on the right side of the phone with the OnePlus 11, the alert slider on the OnePlus 12 is being moved to the left side. According to OnePlus, this is done to improve the antenna performance of the phone to achieve lower latency when gaming. The OnePlus 12 in Flowy Emerald Beyond the ..read more

The OnePlus Open made its debut last week on the same day as the Oppo Find N3, and it’s no secret that both of them are essentially the same device.

The OnePlus Nord series is positioned as the Chinese company’s more affordable mid-range lineup, which is why the new OnePlus Nord 3 is particularly interesting. Not only is it powered by a reasonably powerful MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chip, it feels quite a bit like a flagship phone in other aspects too. Priced at RM2,199, the value proposition of the Nord 3 is excellent, given its feature set. While it also has its fair share of shortcomings, this is still an easy phone to recommend. Without further ado, let’s get to the review of the Nord 3. What It Is Display 6.74-inch Super Fluid AMOLED ..read more

OnePlus’ recent wireless earbuds surprised me quite a bit, especially when it comes to audio quality. This trait is carried over to the latest OnePlus Buds Pro 2, with a dual-driver design that elevates the sound quality even further. But as much as I enjoy listening to my favourite tunes with the Buds Pro 2, it still falls short of expectations, especially for a premium pair of true wireless earbuds. That being said, it doesn’t take away from the fact that these are great-sounding earbuds. If you can live with its shortcomings, the Buds Pro 2 is well worth considering. What It Is Available in ..read more

Just a week after its global debut, the OnePlus 11 has just been launched right here in Malaysia.

The base 8GB + 128GB model in Titan Black is priced at RM3,299, while the higher-end 16GB + 256GB configuration in Eternal Green goes for RM3,599. Decent price tags for a flagship phone of this calibre. For that kind of money, the OnePlus 11 features the aforementioned Snap ..read more

The OnePlus 11 made its global debut yesterday, and it looks to be the company’s most exciting flagship phone yet. Not only does it continue to offer high-end features – along with the return of the alert slider – it is also priced competitively with a $699 starting price. That’s only about RM3,000 if we do a direct conversion to our currency. After spending a few weeks with the OnePlus 11 as my daily driver, I do think it is the brand’s best flagship to date. It is a return to the company’s original philosophy as a phone maker that offers flagship hardware at a lower price point, though the O ..read more

The OnePlus 11 and the OnePlus Buds Pro 2 are set to be unveiled globally on 7 February next month. Ahead of their global launch, Nextrift received these two new products, and we’re allowed to share some of our thoughts on them, albeit with some restrictions. Nonetheless, the OnePlus 11 and OnePlus Buds Pro 2 look and feel great, which makes sense, given their premium positioning. At a glance, these are quite compelling products, especially if OnePlus Malaysia can offer them at competitive price points – like how it is in China. The OnePlus 11 and OnePlus Buds Pro 2 are packaged in a rather i ..read more
