>After much speculation and wishful thinking from owners, OnePlus has officially confirmed to Android Authority that the Nougat update will not be delivered for the OnePlus 2. The refusal to update comes after promises of 24 months of update support in the past and an outright assertion from the company last year that the OnePlus 2 would get Android N.
>Nevertheless, OnePlus told us that “customer service has been telling customers this for a little while” and that “we’re happy about what we’re doing with software. We already confirmed Android O will come for the OnePlus 3 and 3T. So [no Nougat for the OnePlus 2] isn’t new and we think people were aware of it.”
>That said, a OnePlus moderator writing about the Nougat update in the forum as recently as the end of May seemed to think it was still being worked on, leaving the communication work up to another forum member.
>"When we built the OnePlus 2 we didn't have the software infrastructure team in place we do now."
OP2 was a mistake guys, we all know that.
But how about OP3 and 3t? Will they gonna do the same?

Of course
They dropped the OPO quickly, the OPX might as well not exist, then they replaced the OP3 6 months after being released, then that phone is getting replaced 6 months after that
>>60845235
OP3 and 3T both launched with Marshmallow, so if they get Android O like Oneplus have promised that's two major Android version updates which already is more support than most Android phones get
>>60845235
3 and 3T will get the O
Why does Google even allow this crap? Why don't they fix their ecosystem so you can get updates for every phone?
It's not like phone manufacturers are going to switch to a different OS if Google forces them to do updates.

They're working on it, and on encouraging OEMs to put their code in AOSP. See Project Treble.

Because selling new hardware is more important

>Not running LineageOS on your device
>>60846426
Don't OnePlus devices already come standard with LineageOS (formerly CyanogenMod)?
>>60846558
oneplus killing off CM corporate is what created Lineage
>>60845098
The Apple iPhone 7 Plus doesn't have this problem.
>>60846558
No, it's based on AOSP
>>60846871
Neither does iPhone 5S launched in 2013
>>60845551
OnePlus literally promised the 1+2 would get N and now this.

Well there goes a once decent smartphone maker, pulling a fucking Motorola move with promises to owners and then "Sorry, fuck you, if you want a new OS buy a new device."
Fuck you, OnePlus, fuck you deep hard and fast in the ass multiple times with a frozen hockey stick.
>>60847957
This is why you buy an Apple iPhone.
>>60847976
Srsly this.
Imagine if Apple had said they were going to support X then didn't? Anti apple fags would go nuts.
Yet another company does it and it's just a few lulz and thats it, I guess we just expect shit from non apple.
