The changelog for this "incremental" update is summarised below:

• Fixed some notification issues
• Improved Doze Mode performance
• Added media sound toggle for alert slider
• Addressed alert slider/silent mode issue
• Implemented August 1 security patches for Android
• Implemented Quadrooter patch
• General bug fixes

Most importantly, this update lacks the support for VoLTE, something which is gaining a lot of craze in India because of Reliance Jio's free "welcome offer". The "welcome offer" allows a Jio SIM user to "try out" high speed 4G internet at no cost at all, for a period of three months (till December 31, 2016). The only thing the JIO sim user needs is a VoLTE compatible handset. There is a lack of such handsets in India because Reliance Jio is the first network in India to have a wide VoLTE coverage.

Looks like OnePlus missed  this big opportunity to gain some more fans.
