These days smartphone makers are foraying into making Android TV. Android TV is different from the usual television we know of. It runs on the Android OS just like any of your regular android devices. Among many popular smartphone makers, OnePlus has also launched its Android TV called the Oneplus TV Q1 series. Currently, the Chinese tech giant is rolling out the first software update for OnePlus TV Q1 Pro. It is seeding with build number TV55Q1N_2.A.01_GLO_014_1909210202.
New OTA2 Update for OnePlus TV Y Series
The low budget OnePlus TV Y Series is getting a new software update. This upgrade will make the TV more compatible with the virtual assistant Alexa. The memory and system are getting an overhaul for a smoother user experience. Installing the OTA2 update for OnePlus TV Y Series will greatly enhance the audio quality of the content as well. With the fresh software patch, the connectivity between mobile devices and the TV is now greatly enhanced as it optimizes the Oneplus Connect feature.
While the first generation OnePlus Q series comes with a huge price tag and loads of features the pocket-friendly Y series did not get anything. We know-how OnePlus always listens to its customer’s queries. So, keeping up with that improvements and features are now rolling out for the Y Series smart TV.
Still, many of the features that mid-range U series and premium Q series smart TVs of OnePlus are enjoying, the Y series is yet to get them. I believe this is just the business model of OnePlus for its smart TV segment. More features in the premium segment and lesser features in the budget segment. The gadget maker should keep these features uniform for all its smart TV as it does in its smartphone segment.
As the Oneplus routine goes, the new OTA 2 update for OnePlus TV Y Series is seeding incrementally. First, it will be available to a limited number of users. In the coming days, more users from various regions around the globe will receive the update.
This new update for the OnePlus Tv Q1 Pro is weighing around 813 MB. The current update fixes up the picture overexposure issue on the smart TV. It brings direct support for Bluetooth Stereo by phone. Also, it adds a new light effect on the Bluetooth stereo. This update also optimizes the performance of the DLNA music cast.
