OnePlus has started rolling out OxygenOS 10, which is based on Android 10, to the OnePlus 6 and 6T.

The update brings with it new Game Space, improved location and privacy settings, and many more.

OnePlus 6, 6T gets Android 10 open beta

The OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6T are the latest devices from the company to get access to the open beta of OxygenOS based on Android 10. To download it, you'll need a minimum of 3GB of storage. As with any beta release, this version is unstable, so practice caution when installing this update. Make sure you aren't putting it into your primary device. OnePlus has instructions on how you can roll back to your existing version of Android.

The update brings with it a new UI design, improved location permissions for privacy, new Game Space feature, and icon customization in the Quick Settings. There are now inward swipe gestures to go back, and a bottom navigation bar to let you switch left or right for recent apps. It's now also possible to block spam by keywords in the Message app, and the Ambient Display gets new information based on specific times, locations, and events.

OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition might have 50W Warp Charging

Aside from carrying what's most likely going to be a really expensive price tag, there's one feature coming to the limited edition OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition. The latest teaser from OnePlus suggests the phone will be "charging is about to hit warp speed." What does warp speed mean? In this case, it's going to most likely get a 50W charger in the box.

Earlier this year, OnePlus trademarked Warp Charge, not soon after its sibling company OPPO unveiled Super VOOC (50W) charging for its own supercar-themed OPPO Find X Lamborghini Edition. Aside from possibly getting 50W charging, OnePlus is ditching its signature red charging cable for an orange one to match McLaren's signature colour. We should know more once the phone launches in London on December 11th.
