What is not fixed in the update?

One of the issues that the user may see is the size of the clock notification. The OnePlus smartphone users are witnessing a reduction in the clock notification. It got raised in the OnePlus forum. It may be because of the mishap that may have happened in the software part of the AOD style. But, one can say that it is a mere problem. Apart from this, many are talking about the camera issues that have not been fixed. The bug fixing is all because of the changes made in OxygenOS 11.0.2.2.

OxygenOS 11.0.2.2 is an upgraded patch for the OnePlus’ OxygenOS 11. It is one of the first smartphones that provides the cutting edge Android 11 operating system. OxygenOS 11 comes with compact and intuitive styles and features to enhance the smartphone experience. OxygenOS 11 renders a better improved dark theme with an automatic color tone control, dynamic contrast change, and distinctive colors. Due to larger screens, there is an increment in unused white space. The refreshed UI layout addresses this issue by optimizing the stock Android experience.
