OnePlus 6 and 6T update

• Current stable version: Android 9 Pie
• When will the OnePlus 6 and 6T get Android 10? September 2019 – November 2019 (estimated)

The OnePlus 6T launched towards the end of 2018 with the latest version of Android, Android 9 Pie. It’s expected to receive at least two major Android updates in the future.

Based on OnePlus’ recent updates, and the fact that the OnePlus 6T is a certified Android Q beta device, you’d think the phone was likely to receive the final version of Android 10 shortly after it’s released. After all, the OnePlus 6 arrived with Android Oreo but was updated to Android Pie within six weeks of it being released. 

OnePlus announced Oxygen OS 9.0.8 for the OnePlus 6 and Oxygen OS 9.0.16 for the OnePlus 6T in August.

In addition to the usual bug fixes and stability improvements, the update brought Fnatic Mode which debuted on the OnePlus 7 Pro. Fnatic Mode is like Gaming Mode on steroids, giving gamers the maximum performance possible during play.

It also updated the Android security patch of the phones to August 2019, added DC dimming, and brought in additional Zen Mode features.

OnePlus briefly issued a stable Android 10 update at the end of November before pulling it due to unforeseen bugs.
