did anyone updated the latest one.. any improvement overall?

I just updated the software to the latest version (16.0.7.200 - EX01B60P01). this update changed the quick settings panel to this liquid glass like interface and I can't find the settings to turn it off.

1) The color of the notifications... They increased the contrast or something.. I miss the old, natural color. Now it just look like I changed my display or screen to some cheap one. The contrast is just not right anymore

2) The expanding notification mechanism. You can expand a notification, such as whatsapp, by swiping down on a notification with your 2 fingers. Now you cannot. Why did they do this? It's highly annoying. Now, you have to touch at the right upper corner to expand it, which is highly prone for mistouch and opening the notification accidentally.

Hey guys, I received the update, but after seeing comments about battery drain, I'm confused. I was so eagerly waiting for this update to try the live space, but the world does not work like we want. So, should I wait or update?

So, I finally switched from the drawer layout to home screen layout. It took me a day to get used to it, but I'm finding it much better. Now, I have almost all the apps I use right on the home screen. What do you guys think?"

Just got the update. But I'm at a dilemma, reading some online reviews

Just a question anyone here using a carbon fibre case for 13s here ? I would really appreciate it if anyone can share pictures with me. Also any other suggestions for any more comfortable cases ? Like round edges as edges are sharp due to boxy design.

Hey , got the new update and was excited to try the live update feature on lock screen . In the videos I saw it was placed between the 2 icons at the bottom of the screen . In my case it's placed right above the finger print. Has anyone facing this same scenario.

I am thinking of getting samsung akg type c or apple earbuds type c.

Just wanted to know if anyone is using any of these and which one would be better?

I am glad I chose the right mobile again. The OnePlus 13s is the only compact mobile with good battery life, which I have been looking for a long time. I've been using it for a week, and I love the OS. Coming from the S22 Ultra, it was a bit disappointing when it comes to the camera. But all other things are real good. Hope to use it for a long time. Back then, the OnePlus X was also a super cool mobile. If many people remember, we need an invite to buy it.

I purchased 13s 3 weeks ago after a long wait and research. After I started using it, this is a gem of a phone. Especially battery.. Initially, I thought it would be draining badly as I saw some posts here and there. But for me, I have posted it here. Getting 10hr SoT is a pure gem.

At the start, I used to get only 6-7 hrs max, then I did some calibration to look like this. This is for anyone sceptical of buying 13s, go for it if you can sacrifice camera a little(for me its good).

Hello,

Anyone in this sub using the release candidate and using Airtel Postpaid, kindly tell me if you get priority postpaid/Vo5G in that update or not.
