Hello and welcome to a cool smartphone video showcasing the software on the 1 plus 2. So let's get into it. So let's get into this. Here we have the 1 plus 2 and you can see here this is our standard lock screen. Now you can use a fingerprint to unlock this. I have disabled that due to some issues with the fingerprint reader on the early software builds. Once you unlock it you can see here that you have a fairly standard Android user style interface. With your launch your button in the middle your soft keys are at the bottom. I'm using the capacitive keys. You do have an option of having on screen soft keys if you prefer. These keys at the bottom are multifunctional so the middle key is also your fingerprint reader. The left and the right can be reassigned or the left and left. You can be reassigned to either back or multitasking which is how I've set them out or back on this side multitasking on that one. You can also assign press and hold functions to these. I haven't done that as I don't see any necessary need for that. As you can see you've got your side swiping UI, very very normal, very standard sort of interface, very like Google Now. However there is a big difference with this. When I keep on swiping across to the left I do not get the commonly used Google Now Cards view. To get that I have to long press the home button. Now that is a feature of the Oxygen OS. Now there is a feature with Oxygen OS that will allow you to have something called stacks I believe. I could be wrong about that and I apologize if I am. But this would allow an extra screen. Now the screen will essentially add your commonly used apps and things like that in there. I will be honest with you I turned this off as it didn't really see any benefit to it. I can't find the settings now to show you. But we will go back in. This is a quick launch menu here. Very very useful. All the usual bits and pieces as you would expect. And then you have also got your settings menu. There are a couple of little tweaks in the settings menu. So you have a SIM card option for one because it is dual-SIM. You have buttons and gestures options. These are to assign the buttons and the long press functions. Gestures will allow you to perform various different gestures. I do have double tap to wake on as I do find that quite useful. Home allows you to assign either launcher or Google now. The Google now launcher does actually allow you to have a similar experience to that of the Android Marshmallow experience for anyone wanting to play around with that. And the rest of the things are fairly standard. You got customization, you have got fingerprint in there. Customization does allow you to change some of the themes so you can change between light mode and dark mode. I personally prefer the dark mode. It is not a poor blackback. You can also change the font color as well and your LED notifications. A really cool feature, one that I really like on here is if I drag down from anywhere in empty space, I get my notification drawer. Unlike any other Android phone where you have to reach right up to the top to get it. That does make using this phone single-handed a lot easier. You have your standard double long press, sorry to bring up your widget functionality. You can also do a rearrange on here. The rearrange will allow you to rearrange your icons on your home screen to best use the light space. I don't really like how they have done that so I will change that back later. It is a nice way of being able to tidy up your home screen quickly and easily. The DPI on the icons is a little bit high for my liking but that is normal for Android now so it is something that I can deal with. Really there is not a huge amount of overlay and customization on here. Some of the things that are on here like this dark theme. I did actually see this in Android Marshmallow when I was testing it and I will be honest I actually preferred this a lot more and I was sad to see it go from the beta versions. So I am glad that OnePlus have given you the option and something they were talking about is the fact that they are giving you that option. While we are looking at software we will mention that I am one of the lucky few that I am running the Oxygen OS 2.1 version and that does allow the enhanced camera UI. So you can see here our standard S camera very very like the Google experience but we have got the addition of time lapse now slow motion. Photon video was there manual and panorama if I go into manual this is where it gets really clever. If I click on one of these I get a ring pop out. Now this one is allowing me to adjust the focus so let's put something in front of it to try and use that. So I can now adjust the focal point to get the correct level of focus obviously on auto is finding it pretty well there and on infinity it is not going to find it. This is very very Nokia 1020s if we now go in we can change the exposures I believe this is. Yep that is our exposure in there. And you can see it is still a little bit jumpy I was still able to change the settings in there very very easily. So let's go back in and we have now got our exposure at the lowest so we will put that back up to a usable place. You have also got the ability to adjust the brightness depending on the ambient conditions at last but not least your ISO and it gives you a live preview of what these settings are going to do and what difference they are going to make. Now I really really like that on the 1020 and I really like it on here it allows me to play it allows me to experiment and it allows me to get a further understanding of what these functions do. So that is a little update that has come recently. Now as you saw there if you swipe in from the side you do get your gallery view and the photos that this one takes are pretty good. However I will talk more about that in the review. So that is it now you have it a very brief overview of the software on the OnePlus 2. The overruling thing here is if you like Android and it is purest form like you get on an X-Style device this is not that far removed and the things that it does add I believe are enhancements they are not things that are negative. You do have a couple of pre-installed apps such as there is a files on here which is useful I still prefer file commander and I will be honest I haven't really found any other ones. I am sure they are there but I can't remember them off the top of my head. So there you go the software on the OnePlus 2 very very good very nice software very Nexus so like software.
