Pick the OnePlus 12 if you photograph or shoot video regularly and want the better imaging pipeline of the two. The biggest gaps in its favor are wired charging, wireless charging, front camera, among others.
Pick the Pixel 10 if you carry the device everywhere and weight or thickness has been the deciding factor before. Its strongest claims are weight, water resistance, promised os updates.
