OnePlus and Oppo devices will get Google's Gemini AI

11 April 2024
It's unclear exactly what that means, but it's coming later this year.

    I made the mistake of loading Gemini onto my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra some weeks ago. After I realized it was virtually useless, I tried to uninstall it. No doing. It has somehow integrated itself into the phone and if I try to get rid of it, all of Google goes with it.
    I wish I could go back to having just Google Assistant. She is so much more useful! I can't even launch 'Routines' that I've been using for years. Gemini doesn't recognize them, and Google Assistant is gone - taken over by Gemini.
    Does anyone here have an idea as to how to correct this situation? I have tried contacting Google numerous times, to no avail.
    Gemini - worst mistake I have made with a cell phone.

      Exclusive - OnePlus won't be releasing 8s Gen 3 according to OnePlus Community Moderators due to User unsatisfaction on OnePlus Device Updates.

        Maximate, 11 Apr 2024Considering that the co founders of nothing(r) are from One... moreThey will adopt it slowly, just like how they adopt 8+ Gen 1 chipset on their Phone (2) when everyone else already uses 8 Gen 2.

          Dont we already have Google assistant in Android phone !

            I don't want it...

              [deleted post]Where did they say that? Lol

                [deleted post]Usually I disagree with this stuff but googled AI had a lot of controversy for just not showing white people at all, regardless of prompts. You could type in vikings or British aristocrat and it would only show black/Asian people. I'm brown and if you put in prompts relating to my culture, it makes all the people black with African style clothing.

                  Another app on the phone but in EU the uninstaller is king

                    Considering that the co founders of nothing(r) are from OnePlus... Will nothing recieve gemini updates?.. i mean that is something to think about. In my opinion i think the chances are above 40%.. but chances never accomplished anything did they?

                      it's nice that OPPO/1+ is taking the AI stuff low and slow

                      better under-promise and over-deliver

                        The Chinese better be careful because Google’a Gemini is shown to be very woke.

                          " OnePlus is facing a huge problem in India after mobile retailers confirmed that they would be discontinuing selling the brand’s smartphones, tablets, and wearables starting on May 1. According to the letter from the retailers, the issues involved low-profit margins, warranty claim delays, and forced unfavorable bundling. The retailers voiced their decision through the letter sent by the South Indian Organised Retailers Association (ORA) to Ranjeet Singh, Sales Director at OnePlus India. According to the retailers, there are several issues involved that pushed theme to the decision. As esteemed partners, we had hoped for a more fruitful collaboration with OnePlus. Regrettably, the ongoing issues have left us with no alternative but to discontinue the sale of your products in our stores. ORA painfully wishes to inform our collective decision to halt the retail of OnePlus products in our establishments from 1st May, 2024,” the ORA letter reads."

                          Of the different reasons the retailers have, however, ORA shared that forced product bundling, warranty and service claim warranty claim delays, and low profit margins ultimately caused the move. Moreover, it was shared in the letter that the problems have been present for quite some time now, only for OnePlus to fail to address all of them.

                          “We have experienced instances where we are compelled to bundle products or services with OnePlus devices, limiting our flexibility and hindering our ability to cater to diverse customer needs. Consequently, this has resulted in stagnant inventory and loss of sales,” ORA President Sridhar TS shared in the letter. “Throughout the past year, we have encountered significant obstacles associated with selling OnePlus products, which remain unresolved"
