The build that OnePlus has released is not the most stable Oreo update out there according to Android Police. Some of the people testing this build have been experiencing connectivity issues including non-functional NFC, Bluetooth, unstable Wi-Fi hotspot among other things. OnePlus knows that the build has issues and has asked users to report any problems they encounter during the trial period.

Android Police is reporting the OnePlus wants to be the first manufacturer to push out Android 8.0 Oreo to its customers. Google has already pushed out this update to the Pixel and Nexus devices but as you know, these do not count as we always knew they would get the update first. A few weeks back Google revealed some of the device manufacturers that will have pushed out Android Oreo by the end of the year and OnePlus was one of them. Some of the others include Essential, Huawei, HTC, Kyocera, LG, Motorola, Samsung, Sharp and Sony.
