OnePlus is one of the niche companies (still for poco) that offer excellent products. Nothing to say about the price: you pay for quality. But what users really like about its devices is not so much the construction, which is equally good, but the customization OXYGEN. It is the most stable skin around even if it is not free from some bugs, but it is also normal. If we Europeans love this skin, it seems that in China the company is preparing to supplant it with Oppo's ColorOS. The news comes to us from XDA Developers.
OnePlus will change its Android customization with that of Oppo in China: OxygenOS will be replaced by ColorOS. Will anything change for us?
Luckily we talk about China, at least for now, and not Europe so we should be in an iron barrel. However, let us not rejoice. We do order first of all. In China OnePlus mounts the HydrogenOS that we would be OxygenOS; Oppo in China mounts the coloros as well as here. The first customization, as revealed by a post on the official Chinese community, will no longer exist starting from March 24th. The OTA channel, on the other hand, will cease to exist starting from 1 April. hidrogenos
The announcement goes on to say that all OnePlus smartphone will begin to run no longer the HidrogenOS nor the OxygenOS, but the coloros. Anyone who knows the two companies will no doubt know that they are cousin companies: they are in fact part of the same group BBK Electronics. This has made us think a lot in the last period, especially when we talked about the latest OP and Oppo devices. These are very similar and this did not really please the users.
Many aficionados of the brand say that OnePlus 9 it could already come with ColorOS but we believe it will not. The company hasn't communicated anything about it and it's unlikely it will play such a joke all of a sudden. But now let's move on to us Europeans.
And with us?
What will happen in Europe? Will the proprietary skin be supplanted by its cousin? We are pretty sure this is not going to happen, even if we are aware that in the last period the updates are not arriving as they should. Our idea is that this step will be like the one done by I live with OriginOS: only China will see this change and the West will not be affected.
