OnePlus releases official Android Oreo for OnePlus 5


OnePlus 5 owners are getting a nice Christmas treat. OnePlus has started rolling out Oreo for the OnePlus 5. To remind you, OnePlus kicked off Oreo beta testing for OnePlus 5 almost a month ago, and now just a day before Christmas, the official Android Oreo based OxygenOS 5.0 is out.

The update brings such features parallel apps, picture-in-picture mode, auto-fill, smart text selection, quick settings design, notification dots and more. OnePlus has tweaked some of its apps such as launcher, Camera, Gallery, Calculation and Clock. 

Additionally it brings a new "Adaptive model" screen calibration, as well as optimizations for WiFi and battery saver. Lastly, the update includes Android security patch for December.
