While not really the last, the Nord N10 5G is among the few older OnePlus smartphones that didn't receive the Android 11 update in the first half of the year. With the latest update, however, things are going back on the right track.
The Chinese company announced this week the OxygenOS 11, which is based on Android 11, is now rolling out to OnePlus Nord N10 5G units across Europe and North America. Besides the traditional Android 11 improvements and new features, OxygenOS 11 brings a host of other changes, which you can read about below:
System
Camera
Ambient Display
Games
Dark Mode
OnePlus Nord N10 5G users in Europe should look for OxyenOS version 11BE89BA, while North American users will get OxygenOS 11BE86AA. As expected, this update is rolled out in waves, which means not everyone will get it in the first few days. Theoretically, all OnePlus Nord N10 5G devices should receive the Android 11 update by the end of the week.
