A recently surfaced string of rumours is hinting at the integration of AI features in the OnePlus 11 and OnePlus12.

Since the development has come to light as an speculation, it's not clear whether the release will be a global one or will be confined to some specific countries. However, the leak in question clearly suggested that the integration AI features into the OnePlus 11 and 12 will surely be observed in China.

Courtesy of Mishaal Rahman (@MishaalRahman) who disclosed, among ColourOS Android 14 update and various other features to be added, that OnePlus is rolling out several AI features, as per a report by PCMag.

Out of all, the most notable and significant one include an AI Summariser “to help generate call summaries by extracting times, places, action items and other key information from your phone calls.”

Moreover, the devices are expected to offer AIGC Remover, an AI feature "to help you remove unwanted objects or people and make your photos look cleaner."

On top of that, the upcoming AI tools might also enable users to generate summaries “with just one tap through key information extraction” and “recognise onscreen content and provide quick access to relevant services" with the help of an upgrade to Breeno Touch.

Contrary to most of its rivals such as Samsung, the company did not announce the addition of any AI features at the time of OnePlus 12's launch.

OnePlus 12 specifications

The phone initially launched in China, so it’s possible OnePlus is simply bringing AI features first to the country as well. The phone comes packed with a large 5,400mAh battery that can charge at up to 50W via the company's proprietary AirVOOC technology.

The phone runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 system-on-a-chip and the base model also ships with 12GB of memory and 256GB of storage and it can be configured with up to 24GB of memory and 1TB of storage.

The device deserves a 5/5 rating for the phone’s excellent battery life, powerful processor, bright, crisp display, and ability to be charged rapidly with a wired connection and wirelessly.
