Comment on OnePlus update blocks downgrades and custom ROMs by blowing a fuse
Dojan@pawb.social 3 days agoThey started developing Oxygen around the time of OnePlus 2. I used my OnePlus One into 2020, it was a nice phone. It’s sad to see how they’ve gone down this nasty path.

Seriously, they were the poster-child of a “good” phone manufacturer. Like the “don’t be evil” version of Google, there was a time when I was comfortable recommending them. Not any more. Let’s hope they find their way.

Yeah. I really liked my OPO. It was fantastic. My first hesitations about them came when they started doing multiple versions. Like OnePlus X or whatever that first one was called I kind of glossed over, felt like a marketing thing. But after a few years they just turned into a normal manufacturer.
The whole schtick with the limited availability and stuff meant that the phone was great quality at a great price. They abandoned that too fast to become another Samsungooglewhatever.
