OnePlus has officially started rolling out the stable version of OxygenOS 15, based on Android 15, for its OnePlus Pad 2 tablet. This update comes shortly after the company released the same software update for its flagship smartphones, the OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 12R.
While the update is a significant step forward, AI-powered features, which OnePlus previously announced, are not included in this release. The company has stated that these features will begin rolling out across OnePlus devices by the end of November 2024. Additionally, users in North America will have to wait a little longer, as the update will be available later this week.
The company has also confirmed that the OxygenOS 15 update will be rolled out in batches globally, meaning not all users will receive it immediately. A rollback option is available for users who prefer to stick with OxygenOS 14 (Android 14).
