For the last few years, OnePlus has been making such phones that adhere to customer feedback. Hence, it's phones have been popular among geeks and tech enthusiasts. However, in the recent years, OnePlus has shifted its focus on delivering premium smartphone experiences and the latest OnePlus 7 Pro (Review) is a fine example of that. As a flagship phone, it's up there with the best in the market. However, new design and form factors meant OnePlus had to ditch some fan favourite features previously seen on older OnePlus devices - the notification LED light for example. And OnePlus phones don't come with an Always-On Display despite using OLED screens. Now it seems that OnePlus is set to do something about it.

In a recent post on the OnePlus forums, the company has confirmed that it's bringing some features to Oxygen OS that have come up from consumer feedback. The primary among these is the demand for an Always-On Display feature. OnePlus offers an Ambient Display feature by default on its phones that shows notifications briefly without lighting up the display. OnePlus is now considering to add an AOD implementation that doesn't drain the battery. OnePlus will also lets users customise the Horizon Light effect on the OnePlus 7 Pro.

Apart from the Always-On Display, there are a couple of features that OnePlus is considering bringing to Oxygen OS. Some of these features include folders in the app drawer, adaptive icons in OnePlus launcher, a step counter in OnePlus Shelf, a redesigned Recents app screen and a new charging sound effect.

OnePlus is also looking to improve the user experience in Oxygen OS. For OnePlus 7 Pro users, OnePlus will allow the camera app to utilise the ultra-wide camera while shooting videos. Background apps will now pause in the background while using the Quick Reply feature. Users will also be able to customise the duration of the Zen Mode and even block messages by using specific keywords. Users will also be able to block calls in future updates.

These new features are under development and OnePlus could be releasing these in subsequent updates on the future. For OnePlus 7 Pro users, some of these features could greatly enhance the user experience.
