OnePlus entered the foldable market with the OnePlus Open this year. It turned out to be a massive success and also made it to our list of best smartphones of 2023. Well, the OnePlus’ foldable is getting an update, but hold your horses because it’s not Android 14. Nevertheless, it is still a noteworthy update. The latest update is OxygenOS 13.2 and as the name suggests it builds upon the Android 13.
OnePlus Open receives a new update but it’s still Android 13
As spotted by the Telegram channel OnePlus Open: The Chatroom (via Android Authority), the latest Oxygen OS 13.2 weighs about 190.66 MB in size and comes with firmware version CPH2551_13.2.0.203(EX01), including the latest December 2023 security patch. It is comparatively lighter than the last November 2023 security patch which weighed around 508.98 MB.
What’s new with the OxygenOS 13.2 update on the OnePlus Open?
The new update brings several performance upgrades to enhance the overall experience. It tackles both system and camera performance, offering a smooth and stable browsing experience. Specifically, it improves touch controls and reduces the device’s power consumption. Additionally, network stability receives a boost, promising seamless connectivity.
Photography enthusiasts will be happy to know that OxygenOS 13.2 addresses several camera concerns. It finally fixes the shutter lag issue when switching out of Nightscape, tackling those unresponsive UI elements like Retouch and Flash. It also resolves the main screen freezing when using Dual Preview with the rear camera. With these improvements, capturing stunning photos and videos is now smoother than ever on OnePlus Open.
The latest OxygenOS 13.2 update will be rolling out to all devices throughout the week. Ideally, your phone will automatically download. But if you’re eager to jump in, you can check for it yourself by heading to Settings > About device > OxygenOS > Check for update. There’s no official word on OnePlus Open’s Android 14 update yet. However, with other OnePlus models like the mid-range Nord CE 3 Lite already receiving the update, it’s anticipated to be available for the OnePlus Open soon.
