Oneplus Phones To Get An Option To Disable Throttling With Oxygenos 12

OnePlus was caught throttling the performance of many popular apps on the OnePlus 9 series last week. Soon after, the company admitted that was the case and claimed it is for optimizing the device’s performance. However, given the vocal feedback and backlash, OnePlus is now planning to add an option to let users turn off this optimized mode in OxygenOS.

Speaking to Android Police, OnePlus revealed its plans to add the optimized mode toggle with OxygenOS 12. From what it looks like, this toggle is unlikely to arrive in a software update to OxygenOS 11. As a result, owners of affected OnePlus phones like the OnePlus 9 series will have to wait for months to utilize the device’s complete potential.
