So, which phone are you using and are you planning to buy a new phone from the same brand in the future? Share your thoughts with us in the comments section below. I’m personally not planning to buy another OnePlus phone in the foreseeable future given how bad the company’s software support has become lately. OnePlus 7T is yet to receive the stable OxygenOS 11 update while we’re inching closer to Android 12.
