OnePlus rules the roost in the mid-premium smartphone segment with its feature-loaded smartphones, packing the latest processors, and OxygenOS Android skin. However, one of the areas where OnePlus users feel that the company always neglects is the camera. Last month, OnePlus organized an Open Ears Forum in New York City and welcomed feedback from users about their smartphones.
Now, the company has announced some of the changes coming to camera and videography via OxygenOS updates based on the feedback it received. Here are some of the camera issues that the company has vowed to resolve in its upcoming and current smartphones.
