OxygenOS is one of the cleanest, bloatware-free Android skins out there, and OnePlus is extremely proud of it. Now the company is on the verge of making it more user-friendly with the introduction of Android 11-based OxygenOS 11. OnePlus CEO Pete Lau shared a video on Twitter indicating the arrival of Always On Display (AOD ) as one of the features of OxygenOS. 11.
The teaser video shows an analog clock with 11 "on screen" as a legend. It's a subtle hint that OxygenOS 11 will bring this functionality.
OnePlus has incorporated most of the features of Android 10 into OxygenOS 10. However, it has yet to bring the popular, battery-friendly Always On Display feature to its devices. Previously, OnePlus revealed that it will start testing the Always On Display feature in its smartphones from August.
AOD brings convenience to users where they don't have to turn on the screen to check notifications or the time. In addition, the technology is battery-friendly as you don't have to wake up the device every time you want to check received notifications or check the time.
Android 11 R is almost ready and already available for a few devices. Following the trend, we can expect that OxygenOS 11 (based on Android 11) will be released sometime in September of this year.
