The penultimate flagship device from OnePlus in the market right now, that is the OnePlus 7 is likely the most popular device from the Chinese manufacturer after the OnePlus 7 Pro. Given this fact, the Chinese brand is relentlessly pushing new updates and features to this device. As we are knocking our way into August, OnePlus 7 users have also started receiving the new update which brings the August 2019 Android Security Patch onboard the phone. The exciting thing about this update is that OnePlus 7 users are receiving this update even before Google Pixel users, which are usually the first devices to receive the updates for Android. The new version of OxygenOS, which is the OxygenOS 9.5.8 brings more features on the device like optimised adaptive brightness, new bug fixes, performance improvements and more. Like it is the case with almost all OxygenOS updates, this one is also going to be a phased rollout.
