OxygenOS 11.2.4.4 is an incremental update and not all OnePlus 9R users will get it right away. It will first be pushed to a small percentage of users and, after making sure there are no critical buds, the update will be rolled out to the larger audience. To check if you have received the update, head to Settings > System > System updates.
