Listed on OnePlus' forum page today (via Android Police) is the news that OnePlus has started sending out the stable version of OxygenOS 9.0.0, which includes Android 9 Pie, to the OnePlus 5 and 5T.
Besides the system update to the latest Android build, OxygenOS 9.0.0 includes a new UI for Android Pie, and new navigation gestures for the OnePlus 5T. The December Android security patch is also included as are other new features and system improvements. Additionally, the update comes with Gaming mode 3.0, which includes a text notification mode and notification for third party calls.
