The OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro can now record videos in the HEVC format, which uses the H.265 codec to save more space. Other improvements have also been added.
The OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro, launched in April this year, are receiving a new software update, which brings OxygenOS 10.5.8 and 10.5.10, respectively. This time, the Chinese brand has released a number of optimizations and features, making the user experience even better.
The main novelty of OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro update is that it delivers support for recording videos in HEVC format, which uses the H.265 codec to save more space, being able to generate smaller files. Therefore, homeowners can now enjoy longer footage without worrying about overcrowding internal storage.
In the same update, OnePlus also optimized the animation of the camera’s capture button, touch response, improved energy consumption and wireless charging stability (Pro version), among other improvements. Last but not least, the company inserted the May security patch, reinforcing the security of the system.
As expected, the new OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro update is being distributed gradually via OTA, so it may take a few days to reach all units. When OxygenOS 10.5.8 and 10.5.10 is available in your model, before carrying out the installation, check the battery quantity to avoid shutdowns during the process, we recommend at least 50%.
