To claim the OnePlus 7T, the Chinese manufacturer has released a new software update in one of its most recent moves. A few hours ago, according to what highlights the report of a Chinese user posted on Reddit, the new OTA for the device started to be released in China. This means that its expansion has begun, and that it will soon spread globally, as is often the case with brand updates.
Before that happens - but it is already happening and you may have received it in your unit in your respective country -, we explain how to activate two of the most important news that come to this terminal with the new firmware package, which are the super slow motion mode at 960 fps and the wide angle camera for 4K video, two features that the OnePlus 7T did not boast of before.
So you can activate the super slow motion mode at 960 fps and the wide angle camera for 4K video on the OnePlus 7T
OnePlus 7T camera
The OnePlus 7T continues to be ranked today as one of the best high-performance smartphones. Being powered by the Snapdragon 855 Plus, it cannot be considered an obsolete mobile, quite the opposite, since this high-end chipset still has a lot of life ahead of it as it is one of the best performing.
Despite its importance and popularity in the high-cost market, the OnsPlus 7T did not feature the 960fps super slow motion mode and the wide angle camera for 4K video on the OnePlus 7T, two characteristics that are now very common to see in the new premium terminals. But this is something that is fixed with the new update, which arrived with the third beta of OxygenOS that the company released in a batch of three recently and had its most recent foray last week.
These two features were not mentioned in the changelog of the most recent OxygenOS Beta update for the OnePlus 7T, so they went unnoticed.
The funny thing is that, just as the portal Gizmochina highlights, The 586 MP Sony IMX48 sensor in the OnePlus 7T does not support Slow Motion recording at 960 fps. So the function on the phone could be using some interpolation method to double the number of frames per second. That means that ultra slow motion video recording on this mobile may not be as smooth as on other smartphones. premium. In the same way, we explain how to start it in the OnePlus 7T that already have it.
960fps recording mode added on OnePlus 7T
In question, to shoot in super slow motion at 960 fps you don't have to do a lot of things. The option is only added to the two already implemented from the beginning, which are HD 720p at 480 fps and FullHD 1080p at 240 fps. Thus, All you have to do is open the camera application and extend the camera options from the bottom up, in which are those of Slow Motion (slow motion); there you have to select the HD 720p at 960 fps, which is the new mode that comes with this recently launched update.
In the video options that appear in the same extended menu, the recording mode at 4K resolution at 30 fps with the wide-angle sensor also appears, thanks to the new version of ROM. You only have to select it to later start a recording of such quality. Previously, it was only possible to record with the wide angle at FullHD resolution on this device, although at first it was simply not possible to use that lens for recording, which changed with the arrival of Android 10 on the phone.
The usual: we recommend having the respective smartphone connected to a stable and high-speed Wi-Fi network to download and then install the new beta firmware package, in order to avoid unwanted consumption of the provider's data package. It is also vitally important to have a good battery level to avoid any possible inconvenience during the installation process.
Note that not all OnePlus 7Ts would have already received this update. It is possible, as we suggested at the beginning, that it spreads gradually, either by territories, units, and other factors. These types of firmware packages are not usually offered in one fell swoop globally, but rather slowly. Therefore, it could take a few days or weeks before it reaches your model. Similarly, its arrival throughout the globe would be assured, either in its current beta form or in its final form and without any margin of error.
