OnePlus is testing a gorgeous new user interface for OnePlus 6

 By Vaibhav Jain on August 28, 2018       

Just a few weeks back OnePlus started testing out the new OxygenOS Beta for the OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T with brand new gorgeous user interface.

With this new UI, OnePlus aims to provide "Flat & Minimal, Reduction, Bold & Clean​" user experience.

The Good Part is, this new UI is coming soon for the OnePlus 6 users. OnePlus Staff Member Officially confirmed that the OnePlus 6 will be getting the new User Interface changes. However, he didn't mentioned "When" or "How" they're planning to roll it out.

Btw, Here's the new OxygenOS UI -

Flat & Minimal

We went for a slimmed down, minimalist design so users could focus on the important things. Why? Because we believe less is more.

Reduction

By reductionism we mean the fundamentals of good design, aka natural rather than cool.

Bold & Clean

Bold and clean focuses on the scale and words of the interface, so users know that we’ve nailed what’s important to them.

Trial & Tests

We started our design based on the direction our key words took us in. It wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. Now we have a new version of our visual style with a special font and new icons for a truly OnePlus feel. Individuality is at the heart of what we do. That’s what we want to give you through the OnePlus construct

Wait, there's more...

Excited? We will let you know once the update is live. Stay tuned to our Facebook, Twitter, and Telegram to get the first News.
