Yes, I've been daily driving OnePlus 15 since it came out. OnePlus might have the most phones in my personal phones of the past decade? And it looks like this will be my last one.
OnePlus announced they will officially no longer launch new products in North America or Europe. Software support will continue, but OxygenOS on these phones will turn into ColorOS. RIP

You paid $1,000 for a Samsung phone.
Samsung pre-installed dozens of apps you never asked for.
Facebook. Microsoft Office. Netflix. Samsung's own browser. Samsung's own email. Samsung's own calendar. Samsung's own notes. Samsung's own cloud. Samsung's own payment app. Samsung's own voice assistant.
Duplicates of apps you already use. Running in the background. Eating your battery. Using your storage. You cannot delete them. The delete button is greyed out.
You paid for the hardware. They control the software.
Xiaomi is worse. Pre-installed games. Shopping apps. Some serve full-screen ads on your phone.
Carriers add more. T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T each pre-install apps you will never open. Uninstall button? Greyed out.
Someone built a tool that removes every single one. No root needed.
It's called Universal Android Debloater. Written in Rust. Cross-platform GUI. Plug your phone in. Click. Gone.
→ Remove any pre-installed app. Samsung, Xiaomi, OnePlus, Oppo, Vivo, Huawei, Motorola, Nokia.
→ Remove carrier bloatware. T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, and carriers worldwide.
→ No root required.
→ Restore anything you removed. One click.
→ Battery life improves immediately.
→ Storage freed. Gigabytes recovered.
→ Privacy improved. Fewer apps tracking you.
→ Community-maintained database of known bloatware.
→ Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Here's the wildest part:
The phone you paid for is not yours. It is a billboard you carry in your pocket. The manufacturer sold you hardware and then sold your attention to their partners.
This tool gives you YOUR phone back.
GPL-3.0. Written in Rust. Community-maintained.
But DO NOT use Universal Android Debloater.
We should all keep running dozens of apps we never installed on the phone we already paid for.
