Design and Construction
Offered in two color variations, Iron Gray and Cool Blue, the OnePlus 12R is designed to host an alert slider positioned on the device’s left edge.

Additionally, the relocated alert slider supports the integration of a novel antenna system, enhancing the device’s performance, particularly during online gaming activities.
