OnePlus will deliver the Android 11-based OxygenOS 11 build to 12 phones in total, with all devices starting with the OnePlus 6 onward set to receive the update. The OnePlus 6 and 6T are still going strong in 2020, so it’s great to see both phones on the list. The devices debuted with Android 8.1 Oreo and are in line to get their third platform update with Android 11.
Here’s the list of OnePlus phones that will get the OxygenOS 11 update in the coming months:
- OnePlus Nord

With the OnePlus 8 series getting the stable OxygenOS 11 update, OnePlus is turning its attention to its 2019 devices. The OnePlus 7 series is likely next on the list to receive the Android 11-based update, and it is exciting to see that the OnePlus 6 and 6T will also get the update.
If history is any indication, the OnePlus 7T and 7 series should receive the update before the end of the year. OnePlus did a stellar job rolling out the OxygenOS 10 update to its devices last year, so here’s to hoping the company delivers the OxygenOS 11 update to its older phones in a timely fashion.
