- OnePlus posted on its forum today issuing updates on its efforts to meet customer-suggested goals.
- Some of the promises have already been finalized, while others are still in development.
- Fans will likely be excited about some of these OnePlus promises.
Periodically, OnePlus heads up an event it calls Open Ears Forums. During these meetups, a handful of lucky OnePlus fans get a direct line of communication with the OnePlus team, offering feedback and suggestions on OnePlus devices.
Each OEF centers on a particular aspect of OnePlus, with the three previous events being about cameras, customer service, and OxygenOS. Now that we’re halfway through 2018, OnePlus issued a statement on the progress it has made to address OEF suggestions, as well as issue some promises for the future.
If you’re a fan, some of these OnePlus promises will likely be exciting. Check them out below:
