After several beta updates, OnePlus has finally started rolling out Android 11-based OxygenOS 11 update for the OnePlus 6 and the OnePlus 6T smartphones. This comes soon after the Beta 3 that was released earlier this week.
There are reports that AOD is not working properly, but there is a workaround as mentioned in the OnePlus forum.
