Mr. Anonymous, 30 Nov 2022If that is true, then kudos to OnePlus. The longer support,... moreIf only that would be true.
People will swap their phones every 2-3 years anyway.
Worse scenario you can get if you end with a very updated phone unable to run latest apps and games due to outdated hardware.

    Anonymous, 01 Dec 2022Four major OS update for some of it phone model 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦... moreYeah and they make the older phones slower with each update. We all know that.

    We also know that apple users are typically broke and actually uses iPhone for a good 2 to 3 years before upgrading.

    Those who use iPhone past 3 years are usually tech illiterate, or can't be bothered. Even superbroke will upgrade their phones after 3 years to keep up with the appearances.

      The people who buy pixel phones are silly and we don't talk about them because they deserve to suffer for buying phones with history of broken software with issues unfixed after many years.

        Samsung user, 01 Dec 2022Because Color OS is the only launcher/skin that looks as si... moreComplete nonsense. It looks great and is WAY smoother than something like One UI.

            Ok Google, mow upgrade you expensive and mediocre phones for 4 years atleast.


            It would incredibly cheap act to do only 3 updates for phones that cost nearly a grand.

              Ostrich, 01 Dec 2022Can anyone explain all the hate towards the ColorOS/OxygenO... moreBecause Color OS is the only launcher/skin that looks as similar as the UI of 3rd party Cache/virus cleaner apps.

              Some other chinese phone skins maybe doesnt look as good as One UI, but atleast they dont copy 3rd party cleaner app.

                You mean 4 years of ColorOS updates on OnePlus phones?

                        Great! But Oneplus software is full of bugs and a lot of nonsense limitations. I hope they manage to solve these problems too.

                          Alex 94, 01 Dec 2022Oxygen had best android experience. This now is just a skin... moreFully agreeing with you. I have had 4 Oneplus models. The last one (8 pro) and the Oxygen OS 12 fiasco. Never have i had so many bugs after major update. I really hate to say this but I will never buy Oneplus again.

                            TrainingAddict, 30 Nov 2022Are you a troll or are you pretending? OnePlus internation... moreThe current OxygenOS is sharing codebase aka merged with ColorOS. The easiest way to say this is OxygenOS now is just ColorOS with some tweaks in aesthetics. Despite the similarities and Oneplus promise of more streamlined software update after the merger, for some reasons, OxygenOS has become much more buggy than ColorOS and also slower in getting updates.

                                DRCROC, 30 Nov 20224 yes of Colour os? Hell no. OnePlus is dead and gone. I agree. I've been using OP 7T since 2019 day 1 when it launched, My friend who also has the same phone has updated his to android 12 which comes with colour os & he tells me phone has gotten noticeably slower & worse with bloatware on it. Before the update phone did not used to announce call is being recorded but now it does which is very frustrating. I've decided not to update to colour os and the fact it took one plus over 1 year to push a update when manufacturers were pushing android 13 update to their phones.

                                One plus has also lied about its software promise on updates with OP 2 in the past. Never going to get OP again.

                                  Four major OS update for some of it phone model 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ my guess will be like just 2 or 3 model. While Apple been doing for all model that still supported even the phone like 4 to 5 years old.

                                        If that is 4 updates of their OS version not Android then it’s meaningless, Chinese OS’s go through numbers real fast!
