Samsung rival OnePlus is giving away free headphones worth £459 when people buy brand new Android phone

ONE of Samsung’s biggest Android rivals is giving away a free pair of posh headphones in its latest bid to lure more users.

Samsung may have just launched its flagship Galaxy S24 series with a bunch of new AI features.

But competitors such as OnePlus, Xiaomi and Honor have unwrapped new products too recently.

OnePlus’s latest effort comes in the form of the OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 12R.

The pair are launched this week but if you order it at a certain time you can snag a free pair of B&O headphones.

These are usually worth around £459 if you buy separately.

But OnePlus is only giving away a pair away to the first 1,000 customers who buy the phone between January 23 and January 25.

So interested users only have 48 hours and before the 1,000 sell out.

The headphones on offer are the B&O Beocom Portal, Bluetooth over-ears.

OnePlus 12

The OnePlus 12 is set to launch on January 23 as the Chinese company’s latest flagship Android smartphone.

It’s already been out in China for a while now so we have a good idea of what to expect.

Among them is Qualcomm’s mighty latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip which helps the smartphone run nice and smooth – especially with demanding games – as well as a huge 24GB of RAM.

The biggest storage point available will be 1TB so you’ll have plenty of space for high quality videos and photos, on top of all your apps.

As for the battery, it’s a huge 5,400mAh one – by comparison, the iPhone 15 Pro Max battery is just 4,422mAh.

It’ll also charge very quick at 100W with a wired cable and 50W wirelessly.

A trio of sensors are found on the back for photography lovers, including a 50-megapixel main snapper, 48-megapixel ultra-wide and 64-megapixel 3x telephoto rear camera.

There will be three colours available, Flowy Emerald – aka green – black and white.

We don’t know the pricing just yet but in China it’s ¥4,299 which is the equivalent of £477.35 – though judging by previous releases it’ll probably be priced several hundred pounds higher than that in the UK.

The OnePlus 11 started at £729.
