OnePlus just pushed a minor update for its old OnePlus 3 and 3T smartphones. The OTA update bumps up the OxygenOS version to 5.0.7, squashes some bugs and brings Google's November security patch. However, the most important bit about it is the added support for OnePlus' Type-C Bullets Earphones. Up until now, OnePlus 3 and 3T couldn't output audio through their USB-C connectors. Unfortunately, the changelog doesn't say anything about third-party USB-C headphones, but we assume those are supported too. To test them out, we've plugged in the OnePlus Type-C Bullets into a OnePlus 3... from GSMArena.com - Latest articles https://ift.tt/2BD1MBm via IFTTT
