OnePlus 7 series phones are finally getting Android 12-based Oxygen OS 12 update

The OnePlus 7 series – comprising the OnePlus 7, OnePlus 7T, OnePlus 7 pro and OnePlus 7T Pro, is finally getting a major Oxygen OS update that brings the phones to Android 12. The popular OnePlus phones from 2019 were stuck with Oxygen OS 11 for much longer than users expected as an Android 12 update was nowhere to be seen for months after Google launched the Android 11 successor.

To give you some context, the OnePlus 7 series was one of the first phones to be updated to new Android versions when they’re launched, back in 2019. The OnePlus 7T in particular, the brand’s mid-year refresh to the OnePlus 7, came with Android 10 even before Google’s own Pixel phones had the Android version back then.
