OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 11 Receive AI-Powered Feature Support in China With Latest Updates
New Permission Added: ‘Device Motion & Orientation’ in Latest ColorOS 14 Updates for OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 11
OnePlus has introduced significant updates to two of its smartphones, integrating advanced AI capabilities into their functionalities. The OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 11 have now received the latest ColorOS updates, infusing them with innovative AI-powered features. However, it’s worth noting that these enhancements are currently exclusive to the Chinese market, with no information yet regarding their availability on OnePlus devices in other regions. This development comes on the heels of Samsung’s recent launch of the Galaxy S24 series, which boasts an array of AI-driven functionalities set to expand to other Samsung models as well.
The updates, based on Android 14 and identified as ColorOS 14, bring a trio of new AI-powered features to the OnePlus 12 (PJD110_14.0.0.405-CN01) and OnePlus 11 (PHB110_14.0.0.403-CN01). Notably, these updates are solely accessible to users in China, as the global variants of these smartphones typically operate on OxygenOS 14.
After updating to the latest version, users will have access to a new AIGC Remover tool that can remove people and objects from your photos, according to the changelog for the feature. Meanwhile, the OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 11 can also extract important information from articles and use AI to generate summaries.
A new AI Summariser tool can extract times, places, and action items from your calls to generate AI summaries, according to the company’s changelog. The Breeno Touch app that surfaces relevant information and services based on on-screen content, has also been upgraded. However, the company has not revealed whether any new capabilities have been added to the features.
Besides these AI features, owners of the OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 11 in China will also be able to unlock the phone without waking up the screen, and control QQ Music playback when the always-on display feature is enabled.
The changelog for the latest updates also reveals that the company has added a new “device motion & orientation” permission that blocks apps from recognising your device’s orientation or when you’re shaking it. Meanwhile, users who have installed the latest version will also be informed of ongoing screen recording via a floating window or a status bar indicator.
There’s no word from OnePlus on whether these features will come to users in global markets, including India. The global models of OnePlus’ smartphones run on OxygenOS 14, so it could be a while before these features make their way to all users. Samsung recently announced that select older models would also be equipped with the same Galaxy AI features that arrived on the Samsung Galaxy S24 series of smartphones last month.
