OnePlus has started the rollout of OxygenOS 15 for the OnePlus 10 Pro 5G in India (version NE2211_15.0.0.401(EX01)). The update introduces a variety of improvements focused on usability, customization, and system performance. That said, it is worth mentioning that the update does not come with AI features, that are present in the OxygenOS 15 versions of more recent OnePlus flagships.

Key Features:

Ultra Animation Effects
The parallel rendering architecture improves multi-app switching under heavy use. Animations for widgets, folders, and other components are more fluid, while system-wide scrolling is now consistent across third-party apps.

Luminous Rendering Effects
Rounded corner designs have been standardized to create a more uniform appearance.

Flux Themes
Customizable settings for Always-On Display, Lock screen, and Home screen are now available. Flux themes enable smooth transitions, with additional options for wallpapers and clock styles.

Live Alerts
Live Alerts now display information more clearly, with interactive capsules that can expand into cards. Users can swipe between activities and see updates like torch status directly on the alerts. Layout improvements include better Spotify integration and a fix for overlapping icons.

Photo Editing
A reversible editing feature allows users to apply previous settings to new edits, while filters used during capture can be modified later.

Multitasking Updates
Split View windows are now resizable, and new Floating Window gestures provide improved control over app views. Notifications and Quick Settings have been redesigned with separate swiping gestures for better navigation.

OnePlus Share
File sharing with iOS devices is now supported, including live photo transfers.

Battery and Charging
The new “Charging limit” feature caps charging at 80% to protect battery health, along with reminders for long charging periods.

Privacy Features
Private Safe now organizes files into categories, and hidden apps are accessible via a new Home screen folder.

We have also included the detailed official changelog below for readers eager to know the nitty-gritty of this update.
