I didn't know that my phone could be more fluent at taking pictures... I'm glad #OnePlus optimized it 😌
@codewiz Wait, OP6 is getting Android 12 with ColorOS?
BTW nowadays every smartphone have great hardware, quite powerful. Only the software sucks...
When my OP6 will be EOL'd I will flash Lineage or other... For a refresh untill hardware is getting too much older.
"only the software sucks"
You can delete bloatware using ADB.
I'm not sure if it's worth to pay more than 200 € for a new smartphone. The improvement of hardware is so fast, and some components (battery!) are aging quickly. Better to buy a cheap one every three years or so. You can use the old one as a backup.
@codewiz @almn76 Apple and Google showed us that the sensor or lens doesn't make better photos... It's all computational photography...
Well of course having a telephoto lens would produce sharper image than cropping/zooming a pic...
Sony have the largest sensor in a phone, but quality sucks because there are no algorithms. So you need to shoot RAW and edit later. That's what I am doing with my OP6 BTW. Lightroom make miracle.
@codewiz on pictures side, my OP6 was super slow to fire a shot. I removed my 20GB photos (synced on my desktop with SyncThing) and it is now fast again...
This is the equivalent screen for an OS update on a #Samsung phone.
The page design makes it appear more professional than #OnePlus, but if you look closer, there are only 2 lines of release notes:
* Overall stability of functions improved.
* The security of your device has been improved.
The link also doesn't lead to more specific details:

And so, I'm installing 642MB of "improvements" on my #Android phone without knowing what they do 😔
