The presentation of OxygenOS 13 occurred in August of this year and the first to display this system update was the OnePlus 10T, followed by the top-of-the-range OnePlus 10 Pro. Now, there are many mobile phones from the famous Chinese company that have already enjoy the news of the layer based on Android 13, but there are still several devices waiting to receive this version.
Luckily, the Asian brand itself published a roadmap with the respective dates on which their smartphones will receive OxygenOS 13 and Android 13. So it serves as a reference to get a rough idea, so take a look if you want to know when the update will arrive on your phone.
OxygenOS 13 comes to your OnePlus
The new version of the OnePlus layer comes with multiple innovations that aim to completely renew your device, above all, the redesign of the interface under an aquamorphic appearance, as the manufacturer called in the presentation. This is something that we will see later along with the rest of the features, but the important thing here is the smartphones that are going to receive the patch.
In this sense, it should be noted that, today, both the OnePlus 9 and the OnePlus 9 Pro can already be updated to OxygenOS 13 in a stable way. So you should check if it is available for your mobile, although it is possible that the deployment is progressive and takes a little longer than expected to reach your model. That being said, here is the roadmap based on the company’s publication:
December 2022
- OnePlus 8
- OnePlus 8 Pro
- OnePlus 8T
First quarter 2023
- OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite
- OnePlus North 2T
Second quarter 2023
- OnePlus Nord CE 2 5G
- OnePlus North 2 5G
- OnePlus Nord CE 5G
There are two things to note about this roadmap: the first is that models prior to and including the OnePlus 7 series will not receive the OxygenOS 13 update based on Android 13, as is the case with the OnePlus Nord N20 line of devices, N200 and earlier. On the other hand, the Chinese company has only made the beta schedule public , although based on the release date of this test version and the final arrival of the stable version, where there is a period of two months, we have been able to guess when They will officially release it.
How to update your OnePlus mobile
The procedure to download and install the new version of OxygenOS 13 and Android 13 is practically identical to that of any other device under the Google ecosystem.
