OnePlus 3 / 3T Android 8.0 Update Brings Facial Recognition Feature

Recently, OnePlus provided the latest Android 8.0 Oreo update to its smartphones. There are a lot of changes and improvements which the new update brought. However, there are some surprises are well such as in the OnePlus 3 / 3T Android 8.0 update. You heard it right!

The latest OnePlus 3 / 3T Android 8.0 update (OxygenOS 5.0 system) surprisingly introduces Facial Recognition feature. Many users were able to find the feature in the smart lock options in the settings menu. It’s named as ‘Trusted face’.

The best part is that it’s 100% working in the security and fingerprint settings where you can actually set it. This is a bit weird because OnePlus did not mention this in the update log.

Meanwhile, Xiaomi Mi 6 also got the facial recognition feature as well in the MIUI 9 update. This means that manufacturer can easily add such security features in smartphones missing them. Hmm…As long as manufacturers are willing to do so.
