OnePlus, as we know it, is undergoing a massive change. After months of rumors, OnePlus’s incessant attempts to deny them, and even formal-looking indications, OnePlus has officially confirmed it is shutting shop in the US and Europe. It will continue to operate in higher-volume markets like China and India, perhaps living as a sub-brand under parent company OPPO (and likely without its distinct identity). But some other aspects of the business will be offloaded onto OPPO.

One of the most impactful changes during this transition is the final, definitive merger of OxygenOS back into OPPO’s ColorOS. In addition to any new devices launched in markets like India, future software updates for existing OnePlus phones will replace OxygenOS with ColorOS.
