Hi friends,

We know many of you are asking about the next Open Beta build, and we want to address those concerns. As we grow near the release of the OxygenOS 11 release, our focus for the Open Beta software branch has shifted entirely to bringing you the latest flavor of Android. This means the next Open Beta build will be slightly delayed according to our maintenance schedule, but it will already be based on Android 11.

We expect to have exciting news for you in the upcoming weeks, please bear with us a bit longer.

Thank you.

You can expect Android 11 for the OnePlus 7 series pretty soon. The latest Open Beta 19 for the OnePlus 7 series features just a security patch bump to October 2020. The update wasn’t even worth releasing for the beta channel. The Open Beta 20 will be a major upgrade for the OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, and 7T Pro, as it brings Oxygen OS 11. The manufacture may also restart the Open Beta program starting Android 11.
