Download: OnePlus 8 series and OnePlus 9R receive stable Android 12 with OxygenOS 12 update

OnePlus is gearing up for the global launch of the OnePlus 10 Pro. And while that is something to look forward to, existing OnePlus 9R and OnePlus 8 series owners also have something to rejoice about. After releasing a single Open Beta build based on Android 12 for these devices, the OEM is now rolling out the stable OxygenOS 12 update to the OnePlus 8, 8 Pro, 8T, and the OnePlus 9R.

The build number of the stable release is C.11 (for the OnePlus 8 series)/C.14 (for the OnePlus 9R). Apart from the Android 12 foundation, the first obvious change in the OxygneOS 12 update is the reimagined user interface. There are a number of new quality of life features and improvements as well, such as Canvas AOD and the OnePlus Watch Card in Shelf. The Android security patch level (SPL) is a bit old, though, as OnePlus ships February 2022 security patches with these builds.

Here is the complete changelog for the update:

Although this is the stable build, the release is currently limited to existing Open Beta participants only. Moreover, for the OnePlus 8 series, the update for the European variant hasn’t been ready yet due to additional validation requirements. We expect the stable OxygenOS 12 OTA to roll out to all users over the coming week, unless any showstopper bugs are spotted.
