OnePlus’ clear Android 15 roadmap may coerce more phone makers to follow suit

There are two distinct sides to this fragmentation coin, as has always been the case. Earlier this month, Google officially rolled out the Android 15 update. Unless you have a compatible Google Pixel phone that is, you would still be waiting the latest Android on your phone. And that wait is likely to continue at least for the next few weeks, as phone makers speed up beta testing before a formal rollout. OnePlus, on its part, has laid out a clear roadmap for OxygenOS 15, the software their smartphones run, which will be based on Android 15. That is distinctly different from the ambiguity most other phone makers have served up thus far. Vivo, seemingly an exception to that observation.
