The latest beta includes fixes for the Launcher, the Camera app, the Files Manager, November Android security patch and several system improvements.
Common OnePlus 5 Oreo problems and fixes
In the previous beta, the launcher had issues with widgets and shortcuts, which are now fixed. There are a few UI changes in the camera app, and the Files manager app gets support for f4v video format. The Files manager also gets speed improvements when deleting large files.
