OnePlus Releases Stable OxygenOS 15 Update for OnePlus 12R with Major Visual and Functional Upgrades

OnePlus continues its OxygenOS 15 rollout momentum by releasing the update for the OnePlus 12R, following the recent stable OxygenOS 15 update for the OnePlus 12 that was released ahead of its scheduled release date. The latest update is currently available in India, Europe, and Global regions, with North American users scheduled to receive the update next week.

The latest OxygenOS iteration substantially improves the system’s animation and visual performance. A new graphics engine has been implemented to deliver superior rendering capabilities, particularly beneficial during resource-intensive tasks and multitasking scenarios. The update also introduces system-wide consistency in swipe animations, extending to third-party applications and WebView interfaces.

Among the notable additions is the enhanced “Fluid Cloud” feature, which now supports more international applications including Spotify, Swiggy, and Zomato. Users can access real-time information through an improved central display system, with interactive alert capsules that expand into detailed cards.

Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the new LivePhotos feature, which captures up to three seconds of motion, and improved photo editing capabilities. The system now remembers previous edit settings and allows for post-capture filter modifications, streamlining the creative process.

Privacy and security have also been strengthened, with the introduction of app security controls to manage unwanted pop-ups and background activities. The Private Safe has been optimized with categorized views for different types of media and documents.
