In August this year, the company had bumped up the OnePlus 6 and the OnePlus 6T to Android 11 with the OxygenOS 11. But users who installed this update reportedly faced battery drain problems among other bugs. The update now rolling out is said to fix the known issues. It comes with the latest September 2021 security patch.

As always, the OnePlus 6 and the OnePlus 6T smartphones will be getting the latest update in a phased manner. In the initial stage, a select number of users will be receiving the update. If the new firmware doesn't have any bugs, a broader rollout will start soon. The company has not mentioned the size of the new update.

Users are recommended to update their OnePlus smartphones while it has a strong Wi-Fi connection and is charging. The update should arrive automatically over-the-air to both OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6T but users can also manually check for the update by heading to Settings > System > System updates.
