OnePlus teases key OxygenOS 16 features ahead of launch, open beta goes live for select devices in India | Mint
OnePlus is gearing up to launch OxygenOS 16 globally on October 16, and ahead of that, the company has revealed some of its major enhancements and started an open beta in India. The upcoming OS promises smoother animations via its new “Flow Motion” system and expands on the earlier “Parallel Processing” tech to deliver more fluid transitions across apps. Cross-device connectivity is also a focus, with better syncing and interaction between OnePlus phones, Macs, Windows PCs, and tablets.
