The OnePlus Nord was officially launched on July 21st with Oxygen OS 10.5 based on Android 10. Like other OnePlus phones, the OnePlus Nord will receive software updates for two years and security updates for three years – Android 11 in 2020 and Android 12 in 2021.

OnePlus was launched (h / t) Gadgets360) Oxygen OS 10.5.1 for the OnePlus Nord just one day after its launch. The software improved the depth sensor and indoor image quality. It also optimized energy efficiency for 4K video recording at 60 frames per second and improved the overall video recording experience.

A few days later, OnePlus announced Oxygen OS 10.5.2 for OnePlus Nord. It came with a newly adapted firmware for the OnePlus Buds, optimized the launch of the camera with gestures, improved video calls and introduced the July 2020 security patch for the phone. In addition to other stability improvements, the energy efficiency for 4K video recordings with the front camera has also been optimized.
