In context: Following an in-depth performance review of the OP9 Pro by AnandTech, OnePlus was caught throttling the performance of various popular apps like Chrome, Twitter and WhatsApp. While the company admitted to putting these measures into place for squeezing out more efficiency, it now says that an upcoming feature in the OxygenOS 12 update will let users disable these 'optimizations' for better control over their devices' performance.
The OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro were
taken off Geekbench's benchmark list a couple of weeks ago for their dodgy performance, brought to light by AnandTech's review of the OP 9 Pro. They discovered that most mainstream apps weren't able to properly utilize the Snapdragon 888's powerful Cortex-X1 core and were being assigned power-saving cores instead.
