OnePlus’ new Android shell should look a lot like stock Android, the ‘bare’ version of Google’s operating system. According to OnePlus, a cleaner Android experience should be offered with the new operating system (OS). In addition, new features are also coming to the system.
Google and OnePlus to team up
Last Monday, along with other international press, we had a round table discussion with Pete Lau. In this conversation, the CEO of OnePlus spoke, among other things, about the future of OxygenOS, OnePlus in general and about the launch of the new flagship, the OnePlus 10 Pro. You can find more about this in the article below.
In addition to this news, OnePlus also came with the news that the new skin of the company will be developed together with fans of OnePlus and Google. According to the Chinese company, this should ensure that many features of OxygenOS and stock Android will be merged in the new shell.
OxygenOS with a touch of Material You
In the round table discussion there was also Android Central present and they asked Gary Chen, responsible for the OnePlus software, what the new shell of OnePlus will look like. Chen said OnePlus and Google will work together on the privacy and security features of the new software. The design is also being tackled, and Material You elements may be included in this. We rarely see these elements in OxygenOS 12. All this should happen in Oxygen OS 13, which is based on Android 13. We can expect this version in the fall of 2022.
Foldable smartphone from OnePlus?
In addition to the new shell of OnePlus, something special was discussed. For example, Chen announced that the company is also working with Google on flagships of the company, including foldables. For example, both companies would look together at foldable functions for Android 13. It could therefore just be that OnePlus, in addition to the software for foldables, is actually working on making a foldable phone itself. And of course they already have this knowledge in-house. OPPO, which includes OnePlus, came at the end of last year with the OPPO Find N. Androidworld will in any case keep a close eye on all developments.
What do you think of the idea that OnePlus and Google will collaborate (more)? Let us know in the comments below this article.
