OxygenOS 15 is set to copy several iOS features

OxygenOS 15 is OnePlus’ highly anticipated next update, and given its track record, it could arrive later this year. However, according to a new report, the OxygenOS experience won’t be the same, for better or worse.

SmartPrix was able to get a sneak peek at OnePlus’ beta testing of the next iteration of OxygenOS. Well, it turns out that OxygenOS can I plan to take a very HyperOS route for the next release, making it appear very inspired by iOS. Thanks to this report, we now have an idea of ​​what kind of things you can expect from the upcoming OxygenOS 15.

For starters, OxygenOS 15 will see a complete upgrade Redesigned Control Center (also called Quick Settings)and it is really necessary. The design aesthetics should change a little bit. But the biggest change is the separation of notification area from quick settings.

Just like on iOS and HyperOS, swiping down from the top right reveals the Control Center, while swiping down from the left reveals the notification shade. It’s a good move, especially since it will reduce clutter and make the user interface much cleaner. However, just like on HyperOS, you can choose to revert to the old look.

Comparison between OyxgenOS and iOS Control Center

Another major update that would arrive in the OxygenOS 15 Control Center is the ability to rearrange tiles to your taste. In addition, it seems you will be able to too customize lock screen to your heart’s contentAs SmartPrix reports, from the ability to change the size, position, and color of the lock screen clock to the ability to use a depth effect, more customizations are certainly on the way, from what we hear.

For now, aside from the ability to switch between two unattractive clock designs, there’s nothing in the way of lock screen customization, so this will certainly be a very welcome change.

Although we recently got a all new volume access panel On OxygenOS, OnePlus isn’t done with this system. Apparently, just like on iOS, the volume slider shrinks to form a narrower panel when pressed again.

Then, you can also see your memories come to life with OxygenOS 15, thanks to Live Photos. You can also see the same feature on iOS, where shots exhibit a certain amount of movement before they freeze as an image. On the Pixels, Google calls it Motion Mode.

OxygenOS’ Fluid Cloud feature, similar to Dynamic Island, will also get a more iOS-like version in its next release. So, unlike sitting on the left and triggering our OCDs, it will now be integrated into the notch itself.

Finally, the OnePlus classic The Never Settle Easter Egg is backFor those who don’t know, just type 1+ into the preloaded calculator app and press Equals to see the Never Settle animation.

But, hopefully, this is not the end of the story, and we will know more about OxygenOS 15. The good news is that the OxygenOS 15 beta is most likely just around the corner and should arrive by the end of the month or in October. So, dear OxygenOS users, be on the lookout!
