The OxygenOS 4.5.5 update addresses the issues related to poor Wi-Fi connection signal. Several OnePlus 5 users urged that their Wi-Fi signal strength is showing as poor even though they are close their router. After updating to the latest build, users won’t experience the issue.

Also, the device consumes less battery while voice recording and the vibration intensity has been decreased for incoming calls. With the OnePlus 5, the company has addressed the vibrator issue which annoyed the OnePlus 3 and 3T users. However, the poor software optimisation means that the issue still persists with the OnePlus 5.

Here’s the complete changelog of OnePlus 5 oxygens 4.5.5 update:

  • Optimisations:
    Further improvements to Wi-Fi connectivity
    Improvements for voice calling
    Voice recording now uses less battery
    Vibration intensity when receiving calls has been decreased
  • Bug Fixes:
    Fixed Wi-Fi signal consistently being displayed as weak
    Fixed certain apps not able to work under IPv6 network settings
    To restore connectivity to a Windows 10 PC, please turn off USB debugging prior to the upgrade

Aside from these fixes, there isn’t anything new, and the update is still based on May 2017 security patch. Google has released the July security patch update for Pixel and Nexus devices earlier today, while the mid-range Nokia 6 is already receiving the update in various countries where it is selling. This is underwhelming stuff from OnePlus, at least the company have included the June security patch fixes.
