OnePlus has gotten much better at rolling out new versions of OxygenOS, its interface based on Android 13. But six months after rolling out Android 13 (OxygenOS 13) on its OnePlus 10 Pro, several users are complaining that they still don’t have access. it.
The OnePlus 10 Pro was the first OnePlus smartphone to see the arrival of OxygenOS 13 in September 2022, the brand’s interface based on Android 13. If we thought that the brand’s models would switch to ColorOS, it is not so: the identity of the brand is still present, at least symbolically, since its software interface closely resembles Oppo’s.
Despite a rollout that began in September 2022, the wait is long for some users. as reported android police«a thread on the OnePlus community page details customer expectations from September 2022.»
An update to OxygenOS 13 that’s way overdue
The first stable update to OxygenOS 13 was released on September 20. A few days later, an update to OxygenOS 12 (based on Android 12, therefore) was rolled out, with a fix for the manufacturer’s users in North America, Europe, and India, among others.
Netizen Bobbie63 adds that three days later, OnePlus started shipping OxygenOS 13 to those same markets, but excluded users who had upgraded to OxygenOS 12 just before. One user took the opportunity to publicly address the brand and demand accountability for update concerns. At the moment, OnePlus has not reacted to his forum post.
In fact, OnePlus released an update to OxygenOS 12 and another to OxygenOS 13 almost at the same time for OnePlus 10 Pro owners. A problem recognized by the manufacturer on October 21: it took the opportunity to announce the latest update to its interface under Android 12. According to him, it was an intentional and completely normal event. In fact, this makes it possible to push incremental updates to Android 13 while ensuring a safe Android 12 without major bugs.
OnePlus 10 Pro users are not calm
However, many OnePlus 10 Pro have not yet been able to update to OxygenOS 13. But as our colleagues at android police «the company said this week that it was still updating OnePlus 10 Pro units ‘in batches’ in all three regions, as well as global units to OxygenOS 13.».
The problem is that several users do not know the reasons for this two-speed release. This is all the more so as there are fewer and fewer security patches in OxygenOS 12, further exposing OnePlus 10 Pro owners.
