The Oppo K12 Plus is driven by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset, built on a 4 nm process with a CPU configuration of 1 x 2.63 GHz, 3 x 2.4 GHz, and 4 x 1.8 GHz cores, supported by big.LITTLE technology and multithreading.

The Oppo K12 Plus features a dual rear camera system with a 50MP primary sensor at f/2.2 and an 8MP secondary lens at f/1.8, both backed by CMOS and back-illuminated sensor technology, along with optical image stabilization and phase-detection autofocus. Video recording reaches up to 2160p at 30fps, with support for slow-motion recording, continuous autofocus during video, and no HDR10 or Dolby Vision recording capability. Manual controls cover exposure, ISO, focus, and white balance, while burst mode, touch autofocus, timelapse, and in-camera panorama are also available, though manual shutter speed, laser autofocus, RAW shooting, and 360° panorama are not supported.
