TheOnePlus12 will officially launch in China on 5 December (a day later than previous 4 December leaks), and we’ve been given our first official look at the new flagship handset.

Writingon micro-blogging site Weibo, OnePlus president Li Jie confirmed the handset will feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 (Gen 3) chipset, a 2K display, wireless charging,Sony’s Light Metaphor camera sensor - whichwe reported previously- and camera processing upgrades in partnership with Hasselblad.

It’s also set to inheritthe ‘Rain touch’ featurefrom the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro which enhances touchscreen performance in the rain, reducing the frequency of inaccurate inputs from water droplets.

Interestingly, OnePlus also released a couple of official press images showing us what the new flagship smartphone looks like - from the back at least.

And the images confirm the OnePlus 12 will be available in at least three colours; white, black and a intriguing green finish with a marble-like pattern to it. It doesn’t appear to be therumoured wood finish, but there’s a chance it uses a different material to the other options.

It appears there will be a difference in finish between the black and the white versions too, with the white appearing to be a glossy texture, while the black looks to be a matte finish with a potentially grippier texture.
