• OxygenOS 13 Closed Beta program started

Recently, OnePlus rolled out OxygenOS 13 CBT update for the OnePlus 9RT, and now the company is also offering an Android 13-based OxygenOS 13 closed beta program for the OnePlus 8 series smartphone users in India.

This new build provides an opportunity to test Android 13 and OxygenOS 13 software and improve the overall user experience. And in the second half or in late 2022, a stable update will be released for eligible OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro devices.

Testers are often the first to try new things. They have bugs and can be very bad, so companies want beta testers to try them first. If you have the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro in India, please refer to the official post on the OnePlus forum to apply.
