What will change?

So, OnePlus unifies its proprietary shellOxygenOS with ColorOS from OPPO. But nothing will change for users, because the shells will continue to exist separately from each other: OxygenOS will continue to be used for OnePlus phones around the world, ColorOS for OnePlus and OPPO devices in China.

But they will have a common code base which,According to OnePlus, it should standardize its software experience and streamline the development process for future OxygenOS updates.

In addition, OnePlus, following the example of Samsung, decided to extend support for smartphones. The new graph looks like this:

• Flagships, including the T and R models, will receive three major Android updates and four years of security updates.
