The recent update to Oxygen OS 12 has destoyed the experience and renders OnePlus phones no longer viable in a number of ways:- Notifications on lock screen are broken, they'll appear temporarily then vanish and never reappear- Notifications have no colour anymore, they're all in monochrome so can't see at a glance when it's red for YT, blue for Twitter, green for Whatsapp etc.- The OS now keeps Gmail in forced battery saving mode which prevents any email notifications from ever coming through- They've removed our ability to customise individual app icons, and many icons got ruined with the update. You have to use a third party launcher to get around this now- Cannot unlock the phone with fingerprint when it's sat on desk or wireless charger without first picking it up/double tapping, wasting time- Every Google app is now forced to be shaded based on your wallpaper, and whilst this Material You feature is customisable on other phones, it's not on OnePlus. If you have a forest wallpaper, all your Google apps will be vomit green and they don't give you any ability to customise this.- Home screen is washed out and desaturated, and doesn't match the colour profile of the lock screen. Had to change from Vivid to Cinematic colour profile to work around this.- Many of your settings get removed and have to be altered again (highlight colour, Always On Display, ability to swipe back whilst keyboard is open etc.)It's been a dreadful experience through and through, and I would recommend to avoid OnePlus at all costs in future, probably due to its recent merger with Oppo.EDIT: Thank you OnePlus for your reply below. I'm sceptical, but if OnePlus can fix a single one of the issues I've mentioned above, I'll add a star to this review. I'll keep adding a star for each issue that gets resolved, as OnePlus used to be a 5* company before they did this to their users. We'll see how long this review remains at one star...
