OnePlus has announced that the OnePlus 3 and 3T will get the Android P update along with the OnePlus 6, and the OnePlus 5, 5T. Keeping the focus on the Android P update, the OnePlus 3 and 3T will miss out on the Android Oreo 8.1 update
If you are a OnePlus 3 or OnePlus 3T owner, then there is good news for you. On its official forum page, OnePlus has announced that the OnePlus 3 and 3T will get the Android P update. This means that 5 OnePlus phones will be updated to Android P – OnePlus 3, 3T, OnePlus 5, 5T and the OnePlus 6. On its forum page OnePlus says, “Over the past few months, we have been working closely with Google on the Android P Beta program. Thanks to everyone’s participation and continued feedback, the progress we have made together has been greatly accelerated. The Android P update will be available on the OnePlus 6, OnePlus 5/T and OnePlus 3/3T, in this order. We will keep you all updated in the coming months.”
However, it must be noted that the company is focusing on bringing Android P to the OnePlus 3 and 3T and is hence forgoing the Android 8.1 update for the 2 smartphones.
