OxygenOS 15 comes with a new file-sharing system called OnePlus Share, which allows for seamless transfer of files between an iPhone and a OnePlus device. OnePlus says real-time file-sharing progress will be visible on the Dynamic Island on the iPhone.
2) AI Photo features:
OxygenOS 14 already came with numerous AI features for photos, but OnePlus is going a step further with the latest update by introducing new features like AI Unblur, AI Reflection Eraser, AI Detail Boost, and Pass Scan.
Here’s a brief analysis of these features:
