OnePlus fans can finally mark their calendars. The company has confirmed that its next major software update, OxygenOS 16 based on Android 16, will begin rolling out in India on October 16.
The update promises a fresh design, improved system performance, and a deeper focus on artificial intelligence. OnePlus says OxygenOS 16 will include native Gemini AI integration, allowing users to handle contextual tasks like creating travel plans or managing notes directly within the new Mindspace feature.
While the rollout starts mid-October, it won’t reach all devices at once. The first to receive OxygenOS 16 will be the OnePlus 13 series—including the OnePlus 13, 13R, and 13S—since these models have already completed beta testing. Other eligible devices will follow in phases over the coming weeks.
Devices Eligible for OxygenOS 16
Flagship Phones:
OnePlus 11, 11R, 12, 12R, Open, 13, 13R, and 13S
Nord Series:
Nord 3, Nord 4, Nord 5, Nord CE4, Nord CE4 Lite, Nord CE5
Tablets:
OnePlus Pad, Pad 2, and Pad 3
With Android 16’s foundation and OnePlus’s signature speed-focused software, OxygenOS 16 is expected to bring a smoother, smarter experience to compatible devices.
