OnePlus to faster software updates
According to Pete, OnePlus will have more resources at its disposal with deeper integration of the brand with OPPO. He added that the integration with OPPO will allow OnePlus to bring “faster and more stable software updates for OnePlus users.” That being said, Pete didn’t go into detail to explain what this “deeper integration” will produce. It is possible that the two companies could share hardware and software with each other and work on the upcoming devices collectively.
“I’m confident that this change will be positive for our community and our users. With this deeper integration with OPPO, we will have more resources at hand to create even better products for you,” Lau said in a forum post.
OnePlus will operate independently, says OnePlus CEO
Lau added that the OnePlus brand will continue to operate independently and “continue launching OnePlus products, holding events and engaging directly with you for feedback through the same OnePlus channels as before.” The announcement from the OnePlus CEO makes much more sense when you consider that the upcoming OnePlus Nord 2 is expected to be a rebranded variant of the OPPO Reno 6/Realme X9 Pro. It looks like OnePlus wanted to let its fan know that it is integrating with OPPO even further before launching a rebranded OPPO smartphone. Hopefully, we will know more about the integration of OnePlus with OPPO in the near future.
