According to OnePlus, the closed beta group will be the closest to the OnePlus staff, made up of “elite” members of the OnePlus community. There will only be 100 people in the closed beta program, at least at first. The program also helps identify major bugs before it’s even released to the Open Beta and then later on to the official builds.
But since members will be able to try out the earliest builds of an update, there needs to be some high level of secrecy involved. you must actually have to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement before the let in this program. This is as necessary because you will get the builds and features way ahead of everyone else, even months before it’s actually released.
To eligible for this Closed Beta Program, you must follow below instructions
- Own a OnePlus 6
- Be an active member of the OnePlus Community forums
- Be willing to constantly communicate and provide feedback to the OnePlus team using Slack.
To be Noted Oneplus also instructs you to have active participation and also understand that closed beta community will require flashing builds “very often” and sometimes having to perform a clean flash, which is only possible through wiping user data off the device. That means it is clear that to become a member of the closed group is very difficult as your data might be lost sometimes depends as your daily driver.
There is no information about how long this application will be open. It is up to your interest in being one of the very first people not employed by OnePlus to see the upcoming OxygenOS feature. If you are eager to apply ASAP please go ahead with given link below to see OnePlus’ forum post.
