• OnePlus CEO Pete Lau has shared images of unreleased OnePlus 12 prototypes.
• The prototypes showcase different CMF options, including a contrast-heavy design that would feel at home in a manga.
• These CMF designs didn’t make it to production, but they offer a glimpse into OnePlus’s design process.

We’re looking forward to the global release of the OnePlus 13, but that’s not to say that the OnePlus 12 will be forgotten. Even as we enter into the new year soon, the OnePlus 12’s overkill specifications at launch will help keep it competitive as an affordable alternative to top-tier Android flagships. You’d likely still be stuck choosing between currently available color options, though, as the company doesn’t release new CMF (Color, Material, Finish) options for older flagships that frequently. But if you want to imagine what other color options the OnePlus 12 could take, the*company has shared a look at some unreleased OnePlus 12 prototypes.

OnePlus CEO and co-found Pete Lau has shared three unreleased designs of the OnePlus 12. These are CMF concepts that didn’t make the final cut, but they stand as a testament to the fact that the company does dare to experiment, at least.
