Which should you buy?
The OnePlus 12 edges ahead on the Mars Score (63.4 vs 69.6), but the 6.2-point gap is small enough that the right pick comes down to which spec advantages matter to you.
Pick the Edge 50 Pro if you photograph or shoot video regularly and want the better imaging pipeline of the two. The biggest gaps in its favor are front camera, weight, wired charging, among others.
Pick the OnePlus 12 if your top frustration with your current device is running out of charge before the day ends — endurance is the lead spec here. Its strongest claims are antutu, battery capacity, pixel density, among others.
Both ship with comparable ram, main camera, 5g support, so those specs don't separate the two — focus on the differences below.
Bottom line: the OnePlus 12 is the safer default. The other model is the right choice only when its specific advantages line up with your priorities.
