Original Story

OnePlus is rolling out a new system update for its 2018 flagship smartphone and its most affordable 2020 budget smartphone. These devices are none other than the OnePlus 6/6T and the OnePlus Nord N100. For the former, the latest update arrives as OxygenOS 10.3.11. Whereas, for the latter, the update is called OxygenOS 10.5.8 (NA) / 10.5.10 (EU).

The latest system update for OnePlus 6, OnePlus 6T, and OnePlus Nord N100 do not bring any new features. Instead, the only update comes with May 2021 security patches, fixes for some known issues, and improvements for system stability.

Anyway, at least these devices are receiving security patches. Hopefully, the new builds don’t introduce new bugs and issues. As far as the availability of this update is concerned, it is being rolled out in batches. Hence, it may take some time to reach every unit.

As far as Android 11 is concerned, OnePlus has confirmed to release OxygenOS 11 Open Beta for the OnePlus 6 and the OnePlus 6T in August. However, interested users can already experience last year’s Android version by installing LineageOS 18.1.

On the other hand, OnePlus is yet to officially reveal the availability of the Android 11 update for the OnePlus Nord N100. But what we know is that it will be the only major software update for this handset.

OnePlus is rolling out the August 2020 security patch update to its current flagship smartphones – OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8  Pro. Unlike the last month’s build, this one does not bring any features like new Clock Styles, instead it only fixes a couple of bugs and optimizes the front camera.

The OxygenOS build number for both OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro vary based on regions. Here are the builds that are being seeded out to these handsets worldwide.

Though the build number for the update is different for these phones depending upon the region they are sold, they are basically the same update with common changelog.

Apart from bumping up the security patch level to August 2020, it also fixes the overlapping character display issue with ambient display and other known issues. Additionally, it even optimizes shooting effect with the front camera.

Having said that, the OTA update is being rolled out in batches and thus, may take time to reach your device. Also, if you are interested in trying out Android 11, you do it by installing OxygenOS 11 based on Android 11 Beta 3 that was released earlier this week.
