The latest beta builds come during a week when OnePlus confirmed that the upcoming OnePlus 6 will have a notch. The company not only confirmed the notch but also posted a detailed explainer of why the notch is inevitable in the hope that fans embrace it. Following OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei's tweet that people need to "learn to love the notch," fans lashed out at the co-founder, which is likely the reason behind the tweet being deleted.
