Latest OxygenOS Open Beta For OnePlus 3/3T Brings Launcher & Camera Improvements

As promised, OnePlus has released the final OxygenOS Open Beta for the OP3 and OP3T. The beta builds continue to be based on Android 8.0, and it seems unlikely that the OP3 and OP3T will get Android 8.1.

Here's the changelog for OxygenOS Open Beta 39/30 for OP3/3T:

Changelog

Launcher
• Improved search tags in App drawer
• Added "New installs" category tag in App drawer
• Improved app list for hidden space and toolbox

Camera
• Optimized switching between front and rear camera

Multimedia
• Added capability to scrub/seek through AAC audio file timelines

With the most recent Open Beta for the OP5 and OP5T, OnePlus revamped the software user interface and the design of  many system applications such as the Weather app. Since this is the final beta for the OP3 and OP3T, it is unlikely that the UI-tweaks will be coming to the two smartphones.

The download links for the beta builds are yet to go live. However, existing beta users are getting the update for the latest builds. We will update this article when the downloads become available. The new OxygenOS betas are already available on Oxygen Updater and can be downloaded from there.

OnePlus will be releasing an update for the beta testers later this month which will migrate them to the stable builds. As per OnePlus' maintenance schedule, the OP3 and OP3T will get software updates till November 2018 and bimonthly security patches for an year after that.
