Original story (from September 03) follows:

Thanks to its unique approach that not only focuses on hardware but also on the quality of software experience on devices, OnePlus has become a household name in the smartphone business.

To further stand out, OnePlus joined Google in offering not just timely software updates, but also a longer support window of at least three years. Matter of fact, the Chinese vendor is one of only three OEMs that guarantee three Android OS updates for its devices.

The newest software to arrive is OxygenOS 11 update based on Android 11, the latest and greatest from Google. Unveiled in June for OnePlus app developers, the new skin is expected to hit the Open Beta channel in the coming days and stable in weeks.

Q: Why does the tone of the screen change before and after fingerprint unlock when eye protection/night mode is turned on?
