OnePlus has confirmed it will no longer offer software support for its OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6T smartphones. These smartphones were released back in 2018.
“After 3 major updates and more than 3 years of updates, around 60 Closed Beta builds and over 30 Open Beta builds it’s now time to close a chapter and announce the end of OnePlus 6 and 6T official software support,” reads a reply on OnePlus’ community forum.
This announcement didn’t surprise us because the company provides three major OS updates and three years of security updates. So, 2021 was the last year until OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6T could get the updates. Both the phones received OxygenOS 11 update based on Android 11 last year in September. The company also released a December security patch for these phones recently.
OnePlus recently launched its latest smartphone OnePlus 9RT in the country starting at Rs. 42999. The phone comes with a 6.62 inch AMOLED display, Snapdragon 888, up to 12GB RAM, 50+16+2 MP rear Camera, 16 MP selfie camera, and 4500 mAh battery with 65w Warp Charge.
