Do you own a OnePlus 6 or OnePlus 6T smartphone? Then you should head to phone settings to check for an update as OnePlus has begun rolling out a stable Android 10 update to both devices.
The update arrives as OxygenOS 10.0 to both phones and it began rolling out today. With the new update, you get a new user interface, game space, and Android 10 features such as Share Wi-Fi which allows you to connect to a WiFi network by simply scanning a QR code. There is also new customization available for notifications that allows you to set which notifications are silent and which alert you. OnePlus says the option to hide the notch is not available with this version.
Below is the full changelog for the update:
System
- Upgraded to Android 10.
- Brand new UI design.
- Enhanced location permissions for privacy.
- New customization feature in Settings allowing you to choose icon shapes to be displayed in the Quick Settings.
- General bug fixes and improvements.
Full-Screen Gestures
- Added inward swipes from the left or right edge of the screen to go back.
- Added a bottom navigation bar to allow switching left or right for recent apps.
Game Space
- New Game Space feature now joins all your favorite games in one place for easier access and better gaming experience.
Contextual Display
- Intelligent info based on specific times, locations and events for Ambient Display (Settings – Display – Ambient Display – Contextual Display).
Message
- Now possible to block spam by keywords for Message (Messages – Spam – Settings – Blocking settings).
As expected, this is a staged roll-out, so if the update is not available yet on your device, you will have to wait until it arrives. OnePlus adds that using a VPN to download the update may not work as it is not rolling it out based on regions but to a limited number of random devices first.
UP NEXT: OnePlus 7 Pro 5G users will have to wait till Q1 2020 for Android 10 update
