OxygenOS Open Beta 6 for OnePlus 3 and 3T brings incoming call gestures, aptX support, and more

While the previous build, Open Beta 5, focused mostly on squashing bugs from earlier releases, the newest OxygenOS version introduces a number of new features as well, mostly focusing on the user interface of built-in apps. Some of the biggest changes come to the Dialer app in the form of a couple of new gestures: when receiving a call, users will be able to swipe down to answer it, or swipe up to reject it.

Another important change is buried under the tag "Bluetooth optimizations". This is, in fact, the addition of support for the aptX codec, which was recently released for OnePlus' China-only HydrogenOS as well. In practice, this means that users with compatible headphones will be able to benefit from better overall audio quality. The feature is enabled by default, but can be turned off from the Developer Settings menu, should one choose to do so.
As usual, users of previous Open Beta releases should start receiving the update via OTA soon, while those running the stable version of OxygenOS will have to migrate manually. However, keep in mind that doing so disables the ability to migrate back to the stable channel without performing a full wipe of the device.
