A couple of weeks back, the OnePlus 9 and the OnePlus 9 Pro were delisted by Geekbench for manipulation. This happened when a report by Anandtech revealed that the deices throttle performance of select popular apps but did not do such things while running benchmark applications. Interestingly, the company itself confirmed its doing and now, it has even announced a solution for the same.
OnePlus has confirmed to Android Police that the OnePlus 9R as well as the newly launched OnePlus Nord 2 also have performance optimizations like the OnePlus 9 and the OnePlus 9 Pro. Additionally, the brand has revealed that it will let users opt out of this with the next release of OxygenOS.
OnePlus says that its R&D team is currently working to add an option to turn on/off this optimized mode. The feature is said to arrive in one of the first builds of OxygenOS 12.
Since Android 12 stable is expected to release by September, OxygenOS 12 should also get announced at around the same time. Hence, we expect the so-called ‘optimized mode’ toggle to make its debut by the end of 2021.
Additionally, since OnePlus has merged the codebase of OxygenOS with ColorOS, we can anticipate more OPPO software features. In fact, the newly announced OnePlus Nord 2 with OxygenOS 11.3 with the integrated codebase already looks identical to the ColorOS.
