[Download] OnePlus 9RT gets OxygenOS 12 Open Beta 1

OxygenOS 12 Open Beta 1 is now being rolled out to the OnePlus 9RT. Users of 9RT who are running A.08 will be able to get the update. With Android 12 and OxygenOS 12 features, it’s about 4.5GB in size and comes with a lot of changes.

The Work-Life Balance feature has been added to the OnePlus 9RT. It facilitates the transition between work and personal life for its users. Improvements in performance were made to the camera app as a result of these changes. The user interface will be completely different. It gets a new set of icons with improved textures for the desktop. Now that the auto-brightness has been improved, it can adapt to more scenes. Now the shelf can accommodate the Earphone Control Card, the Scout and even the Watch. See what’s new in the changelog.

Installing the ROM is as simple as downloading it to your device, selecting the Local Update option from the Device Settings menu, and then following the on-screen instructions. OnePlus recommends a security backup instead of a factory reset during the procedure.
