Update coming to OnePlus Open improves battery life, camera, touchscreen, and more،
Earlier this month we named the OnePlus Open as the best foldable phone for 2023. This shouldn't have come as a surprise since it's an open and closed body (see what we did there- down ?). The book-style foldable sports a 7.82-inch internal display and a 6.31-inch external display, and is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. Since the device hit the market with Android 13 pre-installed, news of an upcoming software update is heading towards the OnePlus Open » excited the owners of the device, hoping that Android 14 would arrive.
Sorry, Charlie, the tastiest tuna might turn out to be StarKist (as I don't eat tuna, I don't know) but Android 14 is not yet part of the software update for the OnePlus Open. However, this does not mean that firmware version CPH2551_13.2.0.203(EX01), based on Android 13, does not bring solid improvements to the device. The update weighs 190.66 MB, is based on Oxygen OS 13.2 and includes the December 2023 Android security patch.
System
- Improves system stability.
- Improves touch control algorithm for better user experience.
- Reduces power consumption when the device is idle and when certain apps are in use.
Communication
- Improves network stability and compatibility.
- Fixes a shutter lag issue that can occur when the Nightscape toggle is disabled.
- Fixes an issue where Retouch, Filters, Resolution, and Flash might not respond to your presses.
- Fixes an issue where the main screen may get stuck when you enable dual preview and use the rear camera to take selfies.
The update should bring improved battery life, smoother screen usage experience, and camera settings and shutter should be more responsive. If you are a OnePlus Open owner, keep an eye out for the update. It may not be as massive as the 508.98MB update shipped last month, but it brings improvements you'll want for your phone.
