OnePlus 5 and 5T ‘s Project Treble update

It’s common knowledge that Android updates are slow. In some cases, they even get unnecessarily delayed. And to fix this universal problem that the ecosystem has since its original launch, Google introduced Project Treble to the world. For your information, Project Treble is part of Android 8.0 Oreo and separates the platform’s framework from the vendor’s hardware code implementations. Basically, this means that Samsung, LG, Huawei and other handset makers will only have to make changes to their part of the software.

Meanwhile, Google and companies that provide the SoC will take care of their own. Unfortunately, Project Treble is not yet supported by all smartphones on the market. But some got support for PT after the Android Oreo release. Two of the handsets that got updated to Android Oreo, but didn’t get support for Project Treble – OnePlus 5 and 5T will soon be compliant with the program. In addition, OnePlus has just released a new OxygenOS beta build that brings Project Treble support to both its previous flagships.

On top of that, the changes include a new user interface, support for accent colours; as well as some improvements to the launcher, phone and weather apps.
