OnePlus has started rolling out a new update for the OnePlus 6/6T. The new update brings the September 2020 Android security patch along with a few other improvements.

The latest update from OnePlus for the OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6T is the OxygenOS 10.3.6. Accordingly, the full OTA package is about 1.75GB, and 1.84GB for the former and latter. The changelog for the update is as follows:

  • System
    • improved system stability and Fix general bugs.
    • Update Android security patch- September 2020(2020.09)

If we recall, OnePlus rolled out a similar OxygenOS 10.3.5 update back in August. The update introduced features like OnePlus Buds support, optimizing RAM management, and July security patch.  Also, an earlier 10.3.4 update brought Epic Games(India only), Work-Life balance, etc. Besides, both the OnePlus 6 and 6T, which are already two years old, launched with Android 8.1 Oreo and 9 Pie respectively. Hence, it will be interesting to see if both the devices get an Android 11 update sometime in the future.

Coming back, the update is reportedly rolling out(via XDADevelopers) in a phased manner. It refers to an initial rollout for limited users. And, after ensuring the update doesn’t have any crazy bugs, OnePlus will eventually roll it out to all the users. If you are someone who has either of these devices, you can check for OTA notification in Settings->Sytem->System Updates to see if you are one of those lucky ones.
