OnePlus Nord N200 5G finally getting Android 12 in the US
One of the cheapest 5G smartphones launched by OnePlus in the United States, the Nord N200, is now receiving the long-awaited Android 12 update. The bad news is this is the last major update the OnePlus Nord N200 5G will be getting, so if you’re keen on having the latest version of Android running on your phone, you’ll want to switch to a newer device after Google launches Android 13 later this year.
That said, the OnePlus Nord N200 remains a decent 5G budget-friendly smartphone, so if you’ve bought the carrier-unlocked version, you should receive a new OxygenOS 12 update based on Android 12, XDA Developers reports.
Besides Android 12, the update contains the May security patch, as well as some of OnePlus’ own new features and improvements. Below is the full changelog for the OxygenOS 12 C.15 update:
Keep in mind that the update is rolled out in waves, so it might take a few days to reach all OnePlus Nord N200 users. Since the carrier-unlocked version of the phone is now getting updated to Android 12, we’re expecting T-Mobile to provide the update very soon.
