OnePlus has been relentless with software updates for the OnePlus 6, a phone that launched in June. The flagship smartphone was the first outside of Google’s own devices to receive the Android 9 update and the company is continuing to enhance the user experience through the beta program. In that regards, OnePlus has rolled out OxygenOS Beta 4 for OnePlus 6 users and the new update brings a number of improvements and as usual bug fixes.
You can see the detailed changelog below OxygenOS Open Beta 4 Detailed Change Log System Fixed touch latency issue Optimized standby power consumption Communication Optimized UI for speed dial and calling interface Fixed issue of accidentally answering the second call while using answer calls by gesture Community 2.2.0 Community notices added as feature New feed for following community members Stickied comments displayed on the app Added more options to share threads General user interface tweaks and bug fixes Of the above changes, the most notable is perhaps the fix for the touch latency issue that had been cropping up for some users. While a fix for the issue has been pushed out, it remains to be seen whether it will work consistently across all devices.
Optimised standby power consumption should also result in better battery life of the phone in general, which is great given that OnePlus is known for impressive battery life, besides its speed. OnePlus had released the 3rd Beta for OxygenOS a little over 10 days ago.
The OnePlus 6 sports a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor mated with 6/8GB of RAM, depending on the variant you buy. The phones come in 64GB,128GB and even 256GB of storage. The display is an Optic AMOLED panel with FHD+ resolution.
The dual camera setup on the back sports a 16-megapixel primary sensor with a f/1.7 aperture and a secondary 20-megapixel sensor with a f/1.7 aperture as well. On the front, there is a 16-megapixel selfie camera. All of this is backed by a 3300mAh battery.
