To address the challenges posed by the curved screen of the OnePlus 12, several accessories are available that can help protect the screen and enhance usability.
Screen Protectors
1. Nillkin Impact Resistant Curved Film:
- This film is specifically designed for curved screens, providing a durable and sensitive touch experience. It is made from PMMA material, which offers high light transmission (over 90%) while being oleophobic and hydrophobic to resist fingerprints. The film is only 0.33mm thick, ensuring that it maintains the original display quality of the device[1].
2. BROTECT 3D Curved Screen Protector:
- Tailored for the OnePlus 12, this matte screen protector offers all-around protection and is designed to fit perfectly on the device's curved edges[4].
3. UV Glass Curved Screen Protector:
- This protector utilizes UV technology for a bubble-free application and boasts a hardness rating of 9H, making it highly resistant to scratches and impacts. It also features anti-fingerprint properties[5].
Cases
While not directly mitigating screen issues, using a case can provide additional protection for the device:
- Dux Ducis Case: This case provides good camera protection and has edges that extend above the screen to help prevent damage during drops[3].
- Nillkin Frosted Shield MagSafe Case: Offers a slim profile while ensuring protection without obstructing the curved edges of the screen[3].
Recommendations
- For optimal protection against drops while using a curved screen, consider combining a high-quality screen protector with a protective case that has raised edges.
- Users have noted that traditional tempered glass protectors often do not adhere well to curved displays; hence, opting for liquid adhesive or high-quality plastic protectors may be more effective[2].
These accessories can significantly enhance the durability and usability of the OnePlus 12's curved screen, helping to mitigate potential issues associated with its design.
