(Update: rollout halted) OnePlus 3 getting a big update: sRGB, better RAM management, and more

Update, July 5: OnePlus has halted the Oxygen 3.2 update rollout. In an edit to its original announcement post, the company said it ran into issues with the update and that the rollout would resume as soon as possible. So, if you don’t see the OTA notification on your phone, at least now you know why.

Original post, July 4: OnePlus is rolling out a big update to Oxygen OS, bringing sRGB mode, improved RAM management, and better GPS performance to the OnePlus 3.

This is the OTA that OnePlus promised it would roll out to users in response to criticism about the phone’s color rendition and overly aggressive memory management. The changes were initially rolled out to reviewers through a special Oxygen 3.1.4 OTA on June 23.
