OnePlus has officially confirmed that its latest budget flagship, the 256 GB variant of the OnePlus 12R comes with UFS 3.1 storage and not the earlier claimed UFS 4.0. After many users raised queries regarding the lower read and write speeds of the OnePlus 12R, the company clarified that both variants of the OnePlus 12R include UFS 3.1 storage. However, as of now, the brand has announced no compensation for those who bought this phone thinking it had UFS 4.0 storage.
In a community post, Kinder Liu, the president and COO of OnePlus, shared that “due to an error, we stated that the storage enhanced by Trinity Engine would be UFS 4.0 in some variants. I can now confirm that the storage in all variants of the OnePlus 12R is still enhanced by Trinity Engine but is actually UFS 3.1.”
