- No official announcement via OnePlus yet
- It could arrive as OxygenOS 11 as well
Given OnePlus will basically update OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T to Android 10, that will be their third flagship update. We can also now safely expect them to hand Android 11 as the third flagship update to the OnePlus 6 and 6T users as well.
But, note that OnePlus has not announced anything regarding Android 11 till now. And that is okay as we are still 4-5 months away from the release of the stable Android 11 update via Google.

OxygenOS 10
The Chinese smartphone manufacturer ships off Google’s Android in a really minimalistic way. Only making really subtle changes on top. OnePlus also calls the resulting product OxygenOS, and, this year, we are also getting Android 10-based OxygenOS 10. As mentioned earlier, the update has already gone live for the OnePlus 6 and 6T, rolling out to the devices on November 1st, 2019 as well.
