Welcome to the OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7 Pro update hub. Here’s everything you need to know about the latest Android updates for the two devices, including the current versions and when future updates are expected to arrive.
Both the 7 and 7 Pro run Oxygen OS, OnePlus’ proprietary Android skin. Oxygen OS is known for quick updates that take a long time. So make sure you bookmark this page and visit frequently.
Note that the OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro sometimes receive updates at the same time. Also note that T-Mobile and Sprint variants of the OnePlus 7 Pro may receive software updates at a later date.
OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7 Pro updates
- Current stable version: Android 10
- When will the OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro get Android 11? September 2020 (estimated)
The OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro launched on May 14, 2019 with the latest version of Android, Android 9 Pie. Both devices are expected to receive at least two major Android updates in the future.
Unlocked variants of the two phones got Android 10 in late September, though many users didn’t see the OTA until weeks later before OnePlus silently put it on hold due to some annoying bugs. The rollout began again in mid-October as OxygenOS version 10.0.1.
At the end of December, the Android 10 update for the T-Mobile version of the OnePlus 7 Pro was finally introduced. The update was shipped as Oxygen OS 10.0.1 and contained the November 2019 security patch. Unlocked 7 Pro models are available on Oxygen OS 10.3.0, although it is not clear which features the T-Mobile update may be missing.
OnePlus has confirmed that the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G will be upgraded to OxygenOS 10 at some point – although users will have to wait until Q1 2020 to see it.
