OnePlus has started rolling out stable Android 11 updates via OxygenOS 11 to the OnePlus 6 and 6T smartphones. They earlier released the Android 11 beta update to the OnePlus 6 and 6T users to collect complaints and issues.
Now it seems like everything is okay and they are releasing the stable version of the update. Although, they did mention that the update is going in stages, what that means is that it is being rolled out to a limited number of users.
