Do you have a OnePlus 5 or OnePlus 5t? The two OnePlus devices introduced last year started receiving the Android 9.0 Pie beta just a few weeks ago. The company has officially and finally announced the launch of the latest version of Android for these two devices, so all users who own a OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T can now download the version. Here we tell you all the news that comes and how you can download the version.
The update is available via OTA and in a staggered manner with version number 9.0.0. Apart from the novelties that are included in Android 9.0 Pie, it also comes with a new version of 'Game Mode', which adds different options in notifications and calls to prevent it from interfering with us while we play. A new 'Do not disturb' mode is also added with more options and Google Lens integration. The update to Android 9.0 Pie also incorporates interface improvements, a new navigation bar using gestures (only for the OnePlus 5T) and the new security patch for December. In addition to different improvements and bug fixes.
How to update the OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T to Android 9 Pie
OnePlus cautions that the update will reach a select few users today, possibly those who have been part of the beta program. In a few days the update will be reaching all devices in any market. If you have the automatic update option activated, don't worry, it will appear once you are connected to a stable Wi-Fi network. Otherwise, you should go to 'Settings', 'System' and 'Software Update' and check that the latest version is already available to download and install.
Remember to have a minimum of 50 percent battery to apply the download and installation, as well as sufficient internal storage. Finally, as this is a security update, it is recommended to make a backup of your data.
