If you have a OnePlus and you are a user of the company's open betas, you will be happy to receive news whenever the new updates, and if you are the owner of a OnePlus 5 or a OnePlus 5T you are in luck and the updates are 30 (for the OnePlus 5) and 28 (for the OnePlus 5T). We tell you the news that this beta brings.
OnePlus has added interesting features in its new OxygenOS beta, certain functions we already had in the OnePlus 6 or in the OnePlus 6T and that we will now see in their predecessors.
What's new in the beta
System
- April 2019 security patch.
- Network speed screen improvements.
- Support for shortcuts on the taskbar.
Quick responses with the phone in landscape
- Support for quick responses (responding from the notification itself) with the phone horizontally, which until now could only be done with the phone vertically.
Launcher
- Tutorial added to the shelf (the screen on the left of your desktop that has widgets and information about the weather, etc).
- Added the location of the parking, that is, locate where you parked the car.
- Improved the page indicator in the icon pack (Mirror)
The beta will not take long to arrive via OTA if you have the latest beta update, otherwise you will have to flash the ROM that you can download from the official OnePlus page. As you already know this is a beta, so it may have errors or failures in performance, all this you can report in the OnePlus forum if you are part of the beta program.
The truth is that OnePlus has a good rate of updates, and is that these beta features came out yesterday for the OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6T (Beta 16 and Beta 8 respectively) and today we already have it in its predecessors. And although we are still waiting for Android Pie for the OnePlus 3 and OnePlus 3T, (although The OnePlus 3 and 3T are already receiving the Android Pie beta in China), the truth is that with the OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T the pace is similar to that of the company's current flagships, which is appreciated.
Now we just have to wait to receive the beta, which will surely arrive shortly.
And you? Do you own a OnePlus 5 or a OnePlus 5T? Are you part of the beta program? If so ... Have you received the beta? Leave it in comments!
