The stable OxygenOS 11 update complete with Android 11 is now officially rolling out for the OnePlus Nord after a couple of months of testing and beta builds.
Given how long that fans have waited for patches in recent months, this is a big bonus especially as the Android 12 Developer Preview phase has recently opened up. The OxygenOS 11 stable update was officially announced for the OnePlus Nord on the OnePlus Forums, with no real surprises for those that were already enrolled in the beta phase.
At around 3GB in size, this is a fairly large update, and considering that Android 11 includes some fairly substantial new features along with OxygenOS 11 visual and performance tweaks, it should really be expected.
