What comes after Oxygen? Hydrogen, apparently. Last month, Chinese smartphone manufacturer, OnePlus, released OxygenOS for its OnePlus One devices with the intention that it would cover pretty well all One handsets across the globe. As it turns out, OxygenOS won’t really be around in China as OnePlus is going to release HydrogenOS there and has started sending out invites to an event on May 28th.
For those who didn’t catch OxygenOS’s release, OnePlus basically released a slightly modified version of Android 5.0 for the OnePlus One, presumably with some nice optimizations built in. We’d assume that HydrogenOS would mostly be the same as OxygenOS with a few regional flourishes - China has been a fan of the MIUI theme layout, much like a iOS homescreen, so we’ll have to see whether OnePlus takes HydrogenOS down that path or not.
What do you expect HydrogenOS to look like? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
