Definitely flop period for OnePlus that after having witnessed a game of buggy smartphones due to a display that left out traces of green coloring, now we see the protagonist of a new bug that affects several smartphones of the brand, in the use of wired earphones.
In fact, the bug does not seem to affect TWS headphones but only cable ones, both with USB Type-C connection and the traditional 3,5 mm jack, even if used with jack / USB-C adapter. In particular, when using these audio accessories, the left and right audio channels are reversed with each other for no apparent logical reason or deriving from settings.
The units most affected by this bug belong to the OnePlus 7 series, but there is no lack of reports from users with older devices such as OnePlus 5T.
The bugs continue in OnePlus: invert the audio channels of the earphones
This bug actually had already appeared a few years ago, but in this event the reports were more sporadic, while currently the problem seems to have occurred on considerable units, so much so that on the net the forums dedicated to the brand are full of reports and requests for solutions, which by the way does not seem to exist at the moment, considering that it is not clear what caused this problem.
If you use the earphones to listen to music, most people will probably not notice the exchange of audio channels, which however becomes more evident if you watch video content where it is important to have the two separate channels. And have you encountered this problem on your trusted OnePlus?
