OnePlus officially announces merger with Oppo: Everything you should know

The Chinese smartphone companies OnePlus and Oppo have announced a merger to provide better product quality as well as services. CEO Pete Lau has officially declared its partnership with its sister company Oppo, however, OnePlus will continue to operate as a separate brand and Oppo’s sub-brand. Those who are unaware, both the companies are a part of the same parent company BBK Electronics and the OnePlus has always shared support to its sibling as we have already noticed in the design features of Oppo smartphones. The news came through the forum post by CEO Pete Lau who is also the co-founder of this premium smartphone company along with Carl Pei. However, Carl Pei went away to start its own venture Nothing.  The blog post said, “As many of you know, last year I took on some additional responsibilities to oversee product strategy for both OnePlus and OPPO. Since then, we have integrated a number of our teams together with OPPO to better streamline our operations and capitalize on additional shared resources. After seeing a positive impact from those changes, we’ve decided to further integrate our organization with OPPO.” Also Read: OnePlus Nord CE 5G and TV U1S launched in India: Here are all the price and availability details Throwing more light on how both the companies will exactly work on their upcoming products the CEO went on to say that he believes that the integration will bring a positive change for the community as well as for the users and will provide more resources at hand to create even better products, bringing faster and more stable software updates for OnePlus users. Even after this partnership, OnePlus will continue to operate independently. “We will continue launching OnePlus products, holding events (hopefully in person soon) and engaging directly with you for feedback through the same OnePlus channels as before. OnePlus’ commitment to you remains the same.” the OnePlus founder assured. Also read: OnePlus Nord CE 5G Vs Nord Vs Xiaomi Mi 10i: Which one should you go for? Lau further added that “Now, we’re at a turning point for the future of OnePlus. As we’ve begun growing our product portfolio, we’re able to give you more choices than ever before. True to our Never Settle spirit, we want to continue giving you the highest-quality OnePlus experience possible. And to do that, we must adapt as a team and as a brand.” The company did not explicitly state but we have reached the conclusion that with this merger OP aims to expand its product portfolio and bring positive impact to the new users. It should also be noted that OP ships its latest OnePlus 9 Series in China with Oppo’s ColorOS rather than its HydrogenOS.  Also, those who are unaware Vivo, iQOO, Realme, Oppo and OnePlus are also the subsidiaries of BBK Electronics therefore it is one of the largest smartphone manufacturers in the world. This merger came when OnePlus is firming its roots in the US market with the launch of the OnePlus 9 and Nord N200 5G.  For the latest gadget and tech news, and gadget reviews, follow us on TwitterFacebook and Instagram. For newest tech & gadget videos subscribe to our YouTube Channel.

WhatsApp restores green colour notification for beta users

According to a report, WhatsApp has been testing green colour notifications for its Android beta app. Earlier the instant messaging app was testing blue colour for its notifications on Android which is said to be restored to green colour after getting feedback from the users. This change came with the 2.21.12.12 beta update where the company started with a dark blue colour and ultimately had to restore the original colour scheme for the notifications.  A report by WABetaInfo stated that a new dark blue colour in notifications arrived in the 2.21.12.12 beta update, but WhatsApp but the company has to restore the colour. With the update, the company is said to bring few changes to UI and colours in the previous updates. They started removing the line separators in the list of your chats, and they changed the tint colour in push notifications, choosing a dark blue colour. However, WhatsApp is said to have restored the old green colour after users complained that the new colour wasn’t correctly visible in the notification, due to its contrast. Listening to the feedback WhatsApp has reverted the changes. Recently the instant messaging app owned by Facebook was also spotted working on a feature called Flash Call that helps users to log into WhatsApp quickly. It is an automatic verification method over call to quickly get verified to log into WhatsApp that arrived in the WhatsApp beta for the Android 2.21.11.7 update.   As per the report, WhatsApp’s flash feature will call your phone number and then automatically end the call, verifying the last phone number in your phone’s log is equal to the number that gives you the 6-digit code. This automatic verification method is a safe method of login as all mobile numbers are different and one cannot trick.  However, this feature will be optional and the users can choose to go for the old mentioned method of logging into WhatsApp confirming the 6-digit code received via SMS or call. As far as privacy is concerned the messaging app is said to never use the user’s call history for any other purposes. However, it will just compare the last entry from your call history with the phone number that’s supposed to call you.  For the latest gadget and tech news, and gadget reviews, follow us on TwitterFacebook and Instagram. For newest tech & gadget videos subscribe to our YouTube Channel.
