The OnePlus 12R debuted in the global market last month. At the time of launch, the brand had revealed that the smartphone features UFS 4.0 storage technology on some variants. However, this isn’t true and OnePlus has acknowledged the same. The OnePlus 12R has UFS 3.1 onboard.
OnePlus 12R has UFS 3.1 storage
OnePlus president and COO Kinder Liu made a public announcement on the company’s official forum. He added that OnePlus made an error in stating that the storage type enhanced on the 12R was UFS 4.0. This was also reflected in the spec sheet of the product listing on the official site.
OnePlus clarifies that the OnePlus 12R features a UFS 3.1 storage system on all variants. UFS 3.1 is older than UFS 4.0 which is found on the flagship OnePlus 12. It also has slower read and write speeds. However, the storage type is still present on older flagships like the OnePlus 11. Additionally, the UFS 3.1 on 12R is enhanced by the new Trinity Engine that was fully tested on the device. It is claimed to launch apps faster than ever and keep applications locked open for up to 72 hours. The OnePlus 12R is offered in 128GB and 256GB storage options.
Those who purchased the OnePlus 12R might be bummed by the company’s revelation. Liu also shared another announcement that OnePlus is working on the next steps for OnePlus 12R owners. It will be revealed on February 15. The brand could potentially compensate buyers.
Meanwhile, the OnePlus 12R’s second sale has commenced today. On Amazon, interested buyers can benefit from an extra Rs 4,000 exchange bonus on the purchase of the smartphone. There is also Rs 1,000 discount on select bank cards.
