OnePlus 8 Pro Indian model to reportedly ship with disabled colour filter camera

OnePlus is working on a fix for the colour filter camera feature that would be ready later this month.

Highlights

OnePlus 8 Pro launched with a colour filter sensor that can apparently see-through thin plastic objects and clothing. This was objectionable to a some users as it raises privacy concerns, hence OnePlus disabled the feature on the Chinese models. It also turned off the feature on global units only to revert back, clarifying it was accidental. OnePlus said that it's working on a fix for the camera feature and that it will be ready later this month. However, it looks like OnePlus 8 Pro Indian model will ship with a disabled colour filter camera out of the box. Folks over at XDA-Developers have decompiled the OnePlus 8 Pro camera 4.0.267 app that comes with OxygenOS 10.5.10 and found the colour filter camera was disabled on IN2020 and IN2021 model numbers. These belong to Indian and Chinese variants of the phone.
