Speaking in regards to the bugs, OnePlus has listed the problems that they know are causing issues with this build of OxygenOS.
Known Issues:

- After upgrading to Android N, you will not be able to directly downgrade back to M builds. Our customer service team has a special build of Android M that will allow you to downgrade, but this will format your device. If you’d like to flash back to M, please contact Customer Support.
