“OnePlus has announced a new system that limits who can unlock the bootloader on their phones. Stating reasons such as “data security” and an enhanced “system stability” […]. OnePlus has introduced a new procedure where anyone wanting to unlock the bootloader on their devices must first fill out an online request form for “Deep Testing””.
Even if it is for one region, it is still enshitification preventing phones to have custom ROM 🤦♂️
Whaaaat
Mfers I bought the phone, I do whatever the hell i want with it
Low battery?
.99 centers to unlock 10 percent battery boost.
Not in their eyes.
Phones already literally come with a EULA. The wording may or may not be the same, but the intent is.
You don’t own your phone, you silly thing. What you own is an unexclusive and transferrable (for now, Teslas don’t even have that for example) licence to use most features of the phone.
i bought it for its cheaper than the flagship phones, im guessing thats why people switch to OP, they probably want people to keep buying thier new phones each cycle, and not have a modded phone that you will stay on forever.
Sure- or they’re tired of Samsung’s bullshit. I was going to buy the S25 Ultra outright on release day but then they cut the wireless functionality of the S Pen in favor of their bullshit AI so I decided to cut my support for Samsung and bought a OP13 instead.
As long as your allowed to sadly.
