If you update you OnePlus 5T with Open Beta 5 then you can have the improved accuracy of the current location and you will see new icons and updated User Interface.
However, one of the biggest change you can expect with this update is the support for Network Boost in the Gaming Mode. Gaming Mode was already seen on the OnePus 5T which debars all the notifications, even calls, and enhances your gaming performance. With this update, you can expect a significant boost in the network performance while in the Gaming Mode.
