OnePlus' OxygenOS 14 Filled with Buzzwords and Gimmicks, Obscuring Real Improvements

  • OnePlus unveiled OxygenOS 14, its take on Android 14, drawing heavy inspiration from Oppo's software.

  • OxygenOS 14 features are obscured by complicated buzzwords like Fluid Cloud and Trinity Engine, making it hard to understand changes.

  • OnePlus focuses on keywords to appeal to enthusiasts and gamers, but unlikely to win back fans wanting unique Android skin.

  • Names like "big RAM" and features like Green AOD climate tracker seem gimmicky compared to Apple.

  • Some good upgrades like Auto Pixelate screenshots and encryption, but hard to grasp real improvements behind the marketing speak.
