It's been close to a year since Google announced Android 12 and several OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers) such as Samsung, Nokia, Oppo, Realme and others have rolled out Android 12-based updates to their devices.

However, OnePlus and Xiaomi had been treading with caution as Android 12 had several bugs and negatively affected user experience. They were taking time to bring the OS update.

Though the device made its global debut in late 2021 and in January 2022 in India, it did not come with Android 12 out-of-the-box.
