OnePlus has always been praised for having clean, near-stock software, and a big advantage of this is that updates are much easier to push out. Case in point: the OnePlus 3 has already received Android 8.0 Oreo via the closed beta group, with the newer 3T and 5 receiving it soon as well. Plus, OnePlus is hoping for an Oreo public beta by the end of September.

Do you really think that we will get an oreo update till the end of September? Well, my opinion is that the possibility is quite low.
Depends how fast they can fix things but we are talking about OP here... OOS is still buggy after reports from pretty much everyone and all they add is crap like watermarks etc in camera app. Let's hope they can get it out before anyone else then I'll be impressed

Last year, OP promised Nougat by the end of the year and true to there word, it arrived on New Years Eve. If they manage the same feat this year, I for one, will be impressed. :highfive:

I know this will be the last major update so lets hope its nice and stable will no major bugs or battery draining issues. :cool:

I hope too but not much faith in OP on the software side. Lets hope they push the 8.x.x updates and not just give us 8.0 like with 7.0 is was a mess few devices I own suffer from the battery life issues and what not from that because OEM didn't push 7.1.x with the fixes

I agree that battery life is worse in Nougat. However, this is also the case with my Galaxy Tab S2 so it may be a general Nougat issue as opposed to a One Plus issue. Apart from this, I've always found OOS to be excellent and without bugs with great functionality. Samsung could learn a lot from One Plus.

Apart from the split screen mode, I'd go back to MM in a second if there were monthly security updates on both devices.
