Gizchina News of the week
Here is a detailed description of the above-mentioned features:
- Fnatic Mode : Get the Fanatic edge for an unmatched performance when playing multiplayer games online It will help you have your device at its peak performance and help you get that sweet headshot or that epic combo move by blocking all distractions, boosting CPU performance and network speed, so that only your skills matter!
- Zen Mode : A short farewell to the information overload brought on by the nonstop notifications from your smartphone, Zen Mode will provide you with 20 minutes where you can simply enjoy your surroundings without any distractions. Don’t worry, you’ll still have access to you camera and be able to make emergency calls.
- Screen Recorder : You can easily record that perfect game run and save your own record. Or rather use this feature to make a video tutorial and share your thoughts with others. Now, you can record with high quality, internal sound included, perfectly synchronized.
- Quick reply in landscape : When you want to concentrate on watching videos or playing games in landscape mode, it is more convenient to reply to messages on the go without having to stop what you’re doing and then resuming. The experience is simple and and seemless so that you don’t miss a beat.
- DC dimming : This is an alternative method to adjust the screen brightness, by changing the circuit power of the screen. When enabled, it will reduce screen flickers at low brightness, but may lead to abnormal colors being displayed in some cases.
They will introduce this feature in Open Beta builds for the OnePlus 6 and 6T and then evaluate for the OnePlus 5 and 5T. - RAM Boost : Increase RAM utilization according to your usage. By learning how you use your phone, RAM Boost can predict apps you want to launch and data you want to load, thus taking full advantage of the available RAM to speed up your phone’s performance.
Currently, OnePlus 6 and 6T have the Smart Boost function and will upgrade to RAM Boost in future updates. The OnePlus 5 and 5T will also support this feature.
A built-in screen recorder with internal audio is a great feature, somehow I feel like it is underrated.
And landscape-quick reply is also awesome.
