[Download] Android 10 Beta 2 for OnePlus 5 and 5T based on Oxygen OS 10

The OnePlus 5 series was released back in 2017. That is almost 3 years ago and the smartphones are now receiving their third iteration of the Android OS upgrade. This is 3 years of software updates, which is one of the highest in the industry if you exclude Apple’s iOS. If you don’t already know, OnePlus 5 and 5T got their first Android 10 beta update last week with some stunning features. Here is the Oxygen OS 10 based Open Beta 2 for the OnePlus 5 and 5T based on Android 10.

A few months ago, OnePlus in a community forum posted that Android 10 will indeed come to the OnePlus 5 series. So it began with a leaked build of Hydrogen OS 10 beta earlier last month, soon followed by the first Android 10 Open Beta 1 build based on Oxygen OS 10. It featured some of the OOS 10 specs like a new user interface, customization features in settings, icon shapes displayed in the Quick Settings menu, Digital Wellbeing, Fnatic mode, Zen mode, built-in screen recorder, screenshot editor, spam call and text filtering, improved NightScape for camera, always on display, and edge notification light.

Here is the second Android 10 Open Beta 2 OTA update for the OnePlus 5 and 5T based on Oxygen OS 10. It comes in a small package as the changelog doesn’t include much.
