I love oxygen os. Some people complained about it when they started mixing it with color OS but, I feel it really streamlined it. I have it on all my OnePlus phones and it's very customizable. I can't wait for my 12 to arrive in a couple of weeks.

[@VenkatA-fr3tw]

100%. I love OxygenOs after Oppofication. It's more productive and feature rich. I have a nord with OxygenOs 11 and had Oneplus 11 with OxygenOs 13.1. The later is way better in everything.

[@dr.fitprofessor4363]

@@VenkatA-fr3tw indeed, it's a far better experience. It's unfortunate that they chose to introduce it when Android 12 was released. Android 12 caused all kinds of problems with the oxygen OS software. Many people blamed OnePlus for the issues but, it was really Google's fault. Thankfully, all the bugs were resolved when Android 13 was released.

I love my OnePlus 12 - this phone really rocks

[@Wickiup]

I'm using my OnePlus 11 until my 12 arrives. I thought I knew most everything about it by now but I wasn't aware that I could get rounded icons! Thank you so much! I love it and can hardly wait 'til my OnePlus 12 arrives!

[@SonyGamer66]

Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for the informative video!

[@pocketlintcom]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ratheesh4865]

Can u make a video on how to set the camera settings properly pls...love from Kerala India ❤

[@L1ven]

Switching to spatial audio settings from sound settings for surround sound from speakers is mind blowing. Sounds pretty damn good.

[@Orque01]

Are you using?

[@markjones5561]

That focus peak...that's just perfect for how I use my phone camera. Lots of nature shots, macro, that kind of thing. I have a similar system on my 'real' camera. This is just pure awesome sauce. :)

[@pocketlintcom]

Same, use it every day shooting b-roll for these videos... soooo useful.

[@MyReviews_karkan]

Did you guys get an update wherever you are? Some of the settings you showed here are similar, but missing some parts of them. Like that wallpaper where you can choose parts of the wallpaper for colors. And also rounding the icons is missing on my end, too.

[@footballanalysis3182]

thank you

[@jA.78194]

For the floating windows does KZbin still plays or does it pause ?

[@MrJohnnythebigman]

Which icon is at 3:44? Thank you.

[@HackingDutchman]

Is there a way for App Cloner to clone more apps than a few standard chat apps? OxygensOS really lags behind in that way.

[@destro9424]

Got my device today and im really impressed... but can i completly deactivate the accent colours? like the google calender widgets always have a diffrent colour

[@djimini3p]

What is the icon pack?

[@a.yashwanth]

4:29 I don't see manage option for app drawer on my Nord ce4

[@ronaldfierro9986]

thanks for the tippppppppppppppppppppppps

[@JPs-Channel]

would you consider adding nova launcher?

[@SanSan-lb9iv]

Does the camera app allow you to set the shutter speed, ISO, aperture manually like a mirrorless camera? Kind of like what Sony Xperia 1V does?

[@pocketlintcom]

If you switch to Master mode, and toggle 'Pro' on - yeah - you get all the important manual controls.

[@yapvkeen6676]

@@pocketlintcomahhhhhhh. Thank you very much. I got the pixel 7 pro. And it doesn’t have such a Pro /master function despite the latest update.

[@amazingstar144]

Will this tips work for oneplus 12R

[@pocketlintcom]

Most of them should, yeah.

[@wisegamer3.052]

WHERE DID THE WALLPAPER COME FROM??? PLEASE TELL ME

[@pocketlintcom]

Backdrops app. From the Play Store 😊

[@dr.fitprofessor4363]

The wall.

[@aim_chaim]

The edge where the phone curves... does it have a grayish tone? like when you have a white screen up the curved edges look a little gray? Is that normal?

[@pocketlintcom]

Yeah it is. It’s pretty typical of curved displays, because you’re looking at the panel from a different angle and the light refracts differently through curved glass.

[@dangermouse_]

Does it still have that horrible unadjustable colour thing where Google pages appear in the colours of your wallpaper?

[@_madman04]

Nice video. Waiting forbmy op12. Switching from the ever slow feeling iPhone 15 plus. Would I regret it?

[@inayathatp]

dolbyvision videos not working

[@noemitoledokidd]

Part 2 ?

[@mpa324]

I cannot scroll left or right in the enlarged folder in the home screen, either it opens an app when scrolling left or opens the folder scrolling right. Also I hate the screen pinning does not work with gesture enabled, on Galaxy S10 it worked fine.

[@puk23]

Это лучший телефон по мощности , техническим характеристикам и возможностям, а так же по соотношению цена- качество лучший на рынке.

[@meowmixes98]

The power button should be a power button by default. I know of people who returned their phone because of this. I try telling people they can change it all the time. I would like to be able to control a Playstation 5 with my OnePlus 12 using the IR blaster. What icon pack are you using?
