Thanks

IAmAN00bie

OP your link is broken. Please fix it and I'll approve.

IAmAN00bie

Thanks for the update. Pinned a comment with the clarification you received. Also gave you a flair.

Reddit doesn't allow for updating the headline, but the article's title was changed to:

"OnePlus Clarifies Update Policy (Updated)"

And the article itself was updated to say this at the top:

We sort of suspected this might be the case, which is why we asked the head of OnePlus’ North America PR team multiple times and explained to them that no one in the industry counts out-of-box software as an update, and as it turns out, they were wrong. Our story caught enough eyes, likely from their global PR, to cause OnePlus to reach back out again with what is hopefully one final clarification on all of this – they don’t actually count out-of-box software as updates and the OnePlus 13 will see updates to Android 16, 17, 18, and 19.

Here’s the statement and apology from OnePlus:

I’m very sorry as it looks like I was not given clear answers from my team.

I want to confirm with you that for the OnePlus 13 and 13R, the software update policy will be 4 years of Android updates, starting from OxygenOS 15, and will include 16, 17, 18 and 19.

I hope you will be able to update your article accordingly, and again, apologies for the confusion on behalf of OnePlus.

Oh, you probably want to know what’s up with their watches now? I’ll attempt to get that info as well.

Flossy Carter videos aren't banned from /r/Android, as you can clearly see from this post being allowed.

It's just that the community started massively downvoting any of his videos after that fiasco.

IAmAN00bie

That's weird, it shouldn't have been removed. I reapproved it.

You'll work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for nothing. You'll offer your soul to Reddit's corporate overlords and you'll be happy about it.

What timezone are you in?

Hi OP, please read this subreddit's rules on self-promotion:

Website/blog/YouTube channel owners are generally not allowed to post their own content; please see this page.

IAmAN00bie

While this post technically abides by rule 1, I can't see how the inevitable discussion on the Israel/Hamas war that'll follow here won't become an utter shitshow. So I'm just going to lock the comments.

IAmAN00bie

Your changes to the title are fine!

IAmAN00bie

I just checked the mod queue, and there's nothing that looks like a megathread. If someone wants to make one, feel free to do so.

Edit: one was just created here

IAmAN00bie

For future reference, you can add something like "(x-post /r/GooglePixel)" to the title for context and you'd be fine.

IAmAN00bie

Posts in this sub have to be approved by moderators first

That's only true for self-posts. Link posts are generally unfiltered unless they come from known spam domains.

IAmAN00bie

Thanks, approved your new post 👍

IAmAN00bie

I don't see how this is related to /r/android

Please keep this to the megathread thanks!

Video seems to have been taken down

Hi OP, can you add context for why you're submitting this link here?

IAmAN00bie

Removed, this article is citing this Reddit thread on /r/Android as its source.

Done
