OnePlus smartphone users in India affected by the green line display issue have now received some relief. The Chinese smartphone brand has announced a lifetime screen warranty for its affected phones in the country. In this way, users can replace the screen of their OnePlus smartphones for free, and can replace the screen multiple times under certain conditions. The company’s latest move comes after some users were outraged by the OxygenOS 13 stable update, which allegedly caused green lines to appear on the display of OnePlus phones. Affected phones include the OnePlus 8, OnePlus 8 Pro, OnePlus 8T, OnePlus 9, and OnePlus 9R, which are compatible with the OxygenOS 13 update.
Over the past few months, several OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 9 series smartphone users on Reddit, Twitter, and the OnePlus community forums have complained about green lines appearing on their phones’ OLED panels after installing the OxygenOS 13.1 update. Multiple affected users said that rebooting or downgrading to an older version did not help resolve the issue. The Android 13-based firmware is said to contain dozens of bugs.
