The fourth OxygenOS Open Beta is now live for the OnePlus 8 Series. The last OxygenOS Open Beta 3 was released about three weeks ago with the Canvas AOD feature. And later OnePlus also releases the stable OxygenOS bringing the Canvas AOD to everyone. The OxygenOS Open Beta 4 comes with some new features that you can expect to release for everyone with a stable update probably next month.
OnePlus 8 OxygenOS Open Beta 4 comes with a long list of bug fixes and a few new features as well as performance improvements. After the OxygenOS 11 update, I have noticed the battery performance decreased a lot. And as per the OxygenOS Open Beta 4 changelog, it looks like they will fix the battery drain issue.
OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro flagship devices received the OxygenOS 11 in September with most of the Android 11 features. But as usual, there will be some bugs which is a common scenario for all the phones. And OnePlus is one of the best OEMs which doesn’t give chance for complaints with its regular update policy.
