According to Gizmochina report, OnePlus has not yet made any official announcement regarding this update. So, this list has been prepared by analyzing the update policy of OnePlus devices released so far, and hence, it should be accurate. If your OnePlus device is included in this list, then you can be sure that you will definitely get the OxygenOS 17 update when the rollout starts. Otherwise, you may need to upgrade to a newer model.
When will OnePlus release OxygenOS 17 update?
OnePlus’ progress so far on Android 17 is very similar to last year’s timeline. It skipped the initial beta and went straight to releasing Beta 2 in April, followed by another beta in May. These early “Developer Preview” builds of Android typically don’t include a new version of OxygenOS until October. By then, the software will be almost ready for public release with the new OxygenOS skin.
The stable version of Android 17 is expected to arrive in June – just like it did last year – so OnePlus will probably follow a similar rollout pattern. This means that the OxygenOS 17 beta program could start in October, and the stable rollout will go live in early November. Although the stable rollout is still a few months away, we already know a lot about the new features and upgrades coming with this big update. Complete information about these new features is given below.
What to expect from the OxygenOS 17 update?
OnePlus has not yet officially revealed any information about the changes coming to OxygenOS 17; However, early leaks suggest that the user experience is going to be significantly improved. According to leaks posted on the Telegram channel, the new version will offer smoother zooming for both photos and videos.
The same leaks also suggest that OxygenOS 17 will significantly reduce lag, screen flickering and UI frame drops, as well as improve scrolling performance and overall smoothness. Additionally, it is also said that power efficiency has been optimized for small tasks. OxygenOS 17 is expected to optimize CPU usage, background app management, app launch speed, and overall battery usage. Apart from these internal upgrades, we also expect new features, visual improvements, and better AI capabilities in OxygenOS 17. We’ll know more about these details once the open beta is released.
