The OnePlus Nord N10 5G is the brand’s cheapest 5G smartphone. It is also the company’s second most affordable handset. The device initially debuted in Europe and was made available in the US a few days back. Despite being a budget smartphone, this phone has been getting regular updates since its launch. Now, it has started receiving OxygenOS 10.5.9 with January 2021 security patch ahead of expensive models.
OnePlus is known for its OxygenOS operating system and regular timely updates. Unfortunately, these two most favored qualities of the brand began to degrade over the past few months.
The Chinese smartphone maker’s OS is full of issues, as per multiple users on the OnePlus community, social media, and other forums. Similarly, the firm has now become slower in delivering updates as its portfolio has increased.

As a result, the company’s flagship smartphones – OnePlus 8, OnePlus 8 Pro, and OnePlus 8T are still on November 2020 security patch. This is mostly because the firm is busy fixing the bugs, which should not have been there in the first place.
That said, apart from bringing January 2021 security patch, OxygenOS 10.5.9 update for the OnePlus Nord N10 5G also optimizes power consumption and improves network stability. Also, the update is being rolled out in batches with the following build numbers.
- EU: 10.5.9.BE89BA
- NA: 10.5.9.BE86AA
