After Samsung's One UI, now it's OnePlus' turn to show off its UI that will be based on Android 14. As the title of the article suggests, the slides are full of obscure and memeable buzzwords:

By the use of big RAM to release the best performance and ultra F&S experience.

Big RAM striking again, smh my head

Just guessing here, but maybe they just mean "their" feature where they use some internal storage as a swap file or partition and then call it "RAM expansion" or "virtual RAM", and this time they probably decided to call it "big RAM". But that thing is already natively supported by Android since it's based on Linux anyway, it's just that most phone manufacturers don't use it for different reasons (could accelerate wear on the internal storage).

My comment was mostly tongue in cheek, but I agree with you.

Based on how weird some of the sentences sound, (to me) it looks like the slides were translated from another language into English, which could explain the odd naming (and grammatical errors).

No, my dude. This is the "breathless marketing speak" as pioneered by Applel.

I'll rest easy now that my phone will have downward 100% lower carbon footprint. What about you guys?

I recall a time when Oxygen was meant to be a light touch, when did it become like this?

Yah I loved my 3 coming from a stock nexus 6. Upgraded to 6t and it was meh. In screen fingerprint was cool I guess.

Now I'm on Graphene which only supports pixel and love it. Did away with all the easy unlock methods as I upped my security game.

I do miss the V to toggle the flashlight though.

OOS 12 was a mess on my OP7 pro. Moved to Crdroid and am happy with it. Got another update for it just this morning.
