OnePlus deepens integration with Oppo

OnePlus has officially extended its integration with Oppo in order to streamline its operations and make “better products”, according to CEO Pete Lau. Earlier this year, OnePlus and Oppo merged their respective R&D teams months after Pete was appointed the Senior Vice President and Chief Product Experience Officer of the investor group OPLUS which is an investor group that looks after OnePlus, Oppo and Realme.“With this deeper integration with OPPO, we will have more resources at hand to create even better products for you. It will also allow us to be more efficient, for example, bringing faster and more stable software updates for OnePlus users,” Pete wrote in a post on OnePlus forums.
  
OnePlus has often found itself marred in controversy over its dependence on Oppo since both of them are managed by the same conglomerate, BBK Electronics. So, it is an interesting development now that OnePlus is officially merging with Oppo.
 


Even though OnePlus will be merging its internal departments with Oppo, the brand remains an independent entity and will continue to launch phones and other products as it has been doing. “We will continue launching OnePlus products, holding events (hopefully in person soon) and engaging directly with you for feedback through the same OnePlus channels as before. OnePlus’ commitment to you remains the same,” Pete reiterates in the post.During the OnePlus 9 series launch in March, OnePlus revealed that the phones will run on ColorOS in China instead of HydrogenOS. The ColorOS is usually used by Oppo phones and it is not the slickest of the interfaces around. However, globally OnePlus will continue using OxygenOS which the company has also confirmed after its most recent announcement.

Microsoft unveils Windows 11, a more polished OS

A messy (but surprisingly stable) leak probably wasn't the way Microsoft wanted to introduce the world to Windows 11, but that didn't stop the company from launching its new OS today with a ton of fanfare. After all, a new version of Windows doesn't come around very often, right? So here's what's up with Windows 11: Like we saw in the leaked build, it's clearly evolving everything we saw in Windows 10. But there's an extra sheen of polish that's nice to see after spending six years with the last version. The new OS will be a free upgrade for Windows 10 users and start rolling out "this holiday". And yes, the centered task bar we saw last week is still, well, front and center. For many users, I'd imagine it'd be a somewhat disconcerting change to break a tradition that started with Windows 95. But after playing with the beta build for over a week now, it's a change I've come to appreciate. (You can also push the taskbar back to ...

Smartphone makers have been emphasising on 5G support as a key factor while marketing their devices. However, in a country like India, where 5G networks aren’t available at the moment, there is little incentive for buyers to eye phones solely for their 5G chops. Enter, the Moto G 5G, which is currently being heralded as the cheapest 5G-capable smartphone in India with a starting price of  Rs 20,999. The phone is also the first in the Indian market to ship with the all-new Snapdragon 750G SoC which coupled with its near-stock Android roots...
