OxygenOS 2.1.2 OTA rolling out to OnePlus X with bug fixes and performance improvements

OnePlus is rolling out an update to the Oxygen OS for OnePlus X with version 2.1.2. This is the first software update after the phone went on sale recently in Europe, India and Hong Kong. Labelled as an incremental update, the release is available as an OTA and addresses some bugs, apart from enhancing the phone's performance.

• UX bug fixes in the Camera app
• Improvement to color offset in HDR mode
• Bug fixes to System Update to improve OTA stability
• System optimisations in low battery state
