OnePlus detonated a bomb earlier this month when she was accused by AnandTech di castrate his latest flagship. In fact, according to the team's benchmark tests, the Chinese company would have limited the power of the smartphone in the Pro version. justified their choice, saying it was a necessary step and that all that power, at the end of the fair, was not needed. Today follows one second answer which will allow the brand to "get back on the right path".
Is it true that OnePlus limits the power of its smartphones? Yes, he admitted it and justified the choice. But now comes a second answer
After explaining the performance of its smartphones in some applications, the company released another statement. As it turned out, owners of OnePlus devices will soon have the opportunity to disable the controversial optimization feature which "cuts" some of the processor power in some scenarios.
In an interview with Android Police, representatives of the brand said that in the firmware OxygenOS 12 it will be possible to disable system optimization. This will allow owners of branded devices to get the most out of their hardware.
The company states:
As the different chips work differently and we want to get the best performance and efficiency from each, we have implemented an optimization function for the OnePlus 9R and Nord 2. However, based on user and media feedback, our engineering team is now working on adding an option that allows you to enable and disable this mode in order to better control the performance of your smartphones
Previously, OnePlus explained the inclusion of the default optimization mode with the desire to provide the best balance between smartphone performance and battery life. This scheme of work was activated in a number of popular applications: YouTube, Twitter, Microsoft Office, Zoom, TikTok, Instagram, Discord, Strava and others.
At the same time, after detecting the launch of the benchmark, the device went into maximum performance mode, which it has caused a misunderstanding between OnePlus and the developers of Geekbench.
