TL; DR
- The OnePlus 12 is sold internationally in two colors, green and black, while in China it is also available in white.
- Mentions of this Glacial White color have been spotted in recent Oxygen OS builds for the OnePlus 12, indicating that the color could launch internationally.
The OnePlus 12 is one of the best Android flagships available today, and the company deserves credit for delivering a very good product. If you want to buy the OnePlus 12, you can get it in the signature Flowy Emerald color or the Silky Black color. However, a third OnePlus 12 color is available exclusively in China. That exclusivity may not last long, as we've seen indications that the Glacial White OnePlus 12 could arrive in international markets.
OnePlus tinkerer 1Normal username spotted mentions of the white color variant of the OnePlus 12 in the recent Oxygen OS v14.0.0.608 update. Previously, only green and black colors were mentioned, in line with their global availability. The white color variant of the OnePlus 12 was only mentioned in Color OS builds as the device runs Color OS in China.
This addition to Oxygen OS is a good indication of the international launch of the Glacial White variant of the OnePlus 12, as otherwise there is no real need for OnePlus to make this change.
If we are to speculate, it is possible that the Glacial White OnePlus 12 will be introduced as a special edition or limited edition phone. The phone could see a limited launch to appease fans and enthusiasts who love white-colored devices, and we can definitely see why many users would prefer the clean white aesthetic of this OnePlus flagship. Limiting the color to a limited release will generate good demand among OnePlus fans.
It remains a mystery to everyone when and in which regions OnePlus will launch the Glacial White OnePlus 12. OnePlus recently launched the Nordic Blue OnePlus Watch 2 in Europe and launched the Solar Red OnePlus 11R in India late last year.
Please note that the mention of “Op11Pro” in the background file above is likely a temporary placeholder for the OnePlus 12. The final product name is often set later in the product development cycle and it is likely that the background files have not been renamed. It's not a big deal, so you can safely ignore it.
