While the update may not seem significant at first, it’s great to see the company pushing out timely security patches to its older devices while still working on software update for its latest flagship – theOnePlus 6. Additions to the OnePlus Switch app, other than the security update, are also a welcome move. The inclusion of a manual connection method to the OnePlus Switch app will really come in handy if you’re planning to switch to a OnePlus device from an older device that doesn’t have a working camera as users will now be able to make a manual connection without scanning the QR code.

Even though the beta updates are usually stable enough to be used on your daily driver, it’s worth noting that they may be plagued with some unknown bugs. In case you encounter a bug in the latest beta update, you can report them using the company’sbug report forumor via the OnePlus Community app.
