Despite a fairly manageable portfolio, OnePlus is struggling to deliver the latest updates to its flagship devices. The OnePlus 8T, the company’s latest offering, only got the February security solution in February and has not received a single Open Beta update since its launch in October to date.

The first beta does not contain any new features, but focuses only on optimizing certain aspects of the software. For example, frame rate stability and the player experience are presumably improved. Other optimizations include animations in the weather app and the layout of the cloud service in the Gallery app. The February security series is also with the update.

Changelog

  • System
    • The UI version of the status bar has been optimized
    • Optimize the stability of the frame rate and improve the experience during games
    • Optimize the community homepage with more noticeable notification
    • Android security level has been updated to 2021.02
  • Again
    • Optimize the animations of sunny and cloudy days for a clearer dynamic display
  • Gallery
    • Optimize the layout of the cloud service in the Gallery for better operation

Since it is an Open Beta, the experience should be fairly stable, and you may want to consider installing it on your daily manager. There are two different buildings available, one for the Indian variant and the other for the Global variant, which can be installed via the “local upgrade” option in the system update settings.

If you encounter errors, you can download the refund package available on the forum page, but keep in mind that it will erase your phone’s data.
