OnePlus garnered a huge fanbase among smartphone enthusiasts owing to its flagship killer specs and competitive pricing. However, what set it apart from other brands like Xiaomi which also released feature-packed phones is its software. OnePlus’s Oxygen OS offer a clean stock Android experience with great customizations at the palm of the users. However, with time, things changed and OnePlus are attempting to make amends with a Combined OS.

What Changed?
To recall, Oppo and OnePlus joined hands last year. And OnePlus’ software, which was their holy grail, was compromised. OnePlus’ faithful fanbase was quite peeved with the recent development that Oppo’s ColorOS was slowly taking over the much appreciated Oxygen OS.
Combined OS: What’s Cooking?
After the backlash about ColorOS on OnePlus, the Chinese giants announced that they are making a combined OS. The combined OS is coming out in the second half of 2022 and although it was tipped to debut on the OnePlus 10 Pro, it seems improbable at the moment since the phone has already been released in China with ColorOS 12.1.

When would the Combined OS Come?

OnePlus, in their blog, mentioned that they’ll also offer this OS for their previous devices as well. This seems like it’ll take a bit of time to unveil itself since it aims to come out with Android 13, while Android 12 is in its early days now.
