OnePlus confirmed in a community postthat the stable Android 15-based OxygenOS 15 is rolling out for OnePlus 12R users in India, European Union, North America and other global regions. The OTA update (3.54 GB) includes software version CPH2585_15.0.0.200 (EX01) for Indian users. The company says the update is rolling out in batches, so if you haven’t received it yet, you may receive it soon.
One of the changes that the OnePlus 12R OxygenOS 15 update brings is smoother animations. According to the company, rendering and animation performance are powered by a graphics engine that uses parallel processing to deliver lag-free visuals, especially while multitasking and running heavy applications. Parallel processing is also said to provide smoother widgets, components and folder transitions. Swipe consistency is said to have improved even with third-party apps, including WebView interfaces.
The OxygenOS 15 update for the OnePlus 12R comes with a refreshed home screen with redesigned icons, including refining the rounded corner design of the icons. The OnePlus OneTake feature allows users to customize properties for the Always-On Display, lock screen, and home screen. The Always-On Display supports classic and flux modes (seamless, fluid animations), while the “lock screen supports clock color blending, glass textures, blurred backgrounds, AI depth effects, AI autofills, and more.” The home screen supports glass patterns, blurred backgrounds and other elements.
The stable version of the OnePlus 12R OxygenOS 15 comes with an updated Fluid Cloud that is said to optimize app compatibility. Users can now take live photos with a playback time of up to 3 seconds and access reversible photo editing features that allow saving previous versions of the edit. The update also brings improved camera and filter integration.
New floating window gestures have been introduced with the OnePlus 12R OxygenOS 15 update, in addition to customizable Split View windows. To open a floating window, users can swipe down on a notification banner and swipe down again to enlarge it. Swiping up closes the window, while swiping sideways hides the window. The size of the Split View windows can be adjusted by dragging the divider line or tapping to expand the viewing area.
OnePlus Share now allows OnePlus 12R users to share files with iOS devices with the OxygenOS 15 update. The Quick Settings feature is said to have been visually improved as well. Split mode allows users to access the notification drawer with a swipe at the top left and the Quick Settings with a swipe at the top right.
The latest OxygenOS 15 update for the OnePlus 12R introduces a “Charge Limit” feature that stops charging at 80 percent, which should help extend battery life and minimize degradation. The company says security and privacy features have also been improved. There are other smaller improvements this update brings, which are detailed in the community post linked above.
