Update: OnePlus has also released OxygenOS 11 for the OnePlus 7 Pro and OnePlus 7 smartphones, and the changelog is the same.
After months of delays, OnePlus has finally started rolling out Android 11-based OxygenOS 11 update for the OnePlus 7T and the OnePlus 7T Pro smartphones. OxygenOS 11 beta had always on display feature, but the stable version doesn’t have it, but it might come in another update in the future. Some users are also reporting camera issues with the update, so it is not clear if the company will push another update to fix it.
This comes 5 months after the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro got the OxygenOS 11 update. The company recently resumed the Android 11 roll out for the OnePlus Nord with OxygenOS 11.1.1.1 after fixing the bugs. The company recently pushed the OxygenOS 11 Open Beta 4 for the OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7 Pro, these phones should also get the update soon.
The update is about 2.8GB in size and has Android security patch for February 2021. Since the OTA update will roll out in batches starting today, it might take time to reach everyone. Check out the complete change log below.
