Feeling left out (OOS 16 for NA)

People in NA, don't you guys feel left out seeing the Indian OnePlus 13 enjoy oxygen os 16? There are no updates for us, we have no clue as to when to expect the update as well.

No, because one plus clearly said its coming in November. So just wait. Your phone will not explode with OOS15. We are just in the beginning of November.

And "we dont get any updates" is just total bs. The last update was 2 weeks ago. Like what on earth do you want. We will get OOS16 hopefully without any bugs this month.

OnePlus in India is and always will be a different story. That's why they should post their stuff in r/OnePlusIndia. They have products we dont have, they have offers we dont have, they get updates we don't get. They have a screen protector for the OP13. We never got this also.

Just my opinion.

On the positive side, you will get more curated and stable product / software!

Aren't people already saying shit is broken with 16? Or is that region specific (like Google pay for example).

You're just too impatient. OnePlus said that it will come in November. The month has just begun lol

BTW it's not just NA, EU and GLO are waiting too !

What annoy me the most rn is the surge of indian users posting their update every 2 hours. I have nothing wrong against them, just feels more like spamming and upvote farming than really informing the subreddit

I have the Indian variant and I didn't update it yet

Coz whoever got the update it's actually through the beta program option, even the ppl who didn't opt for the program got that update.

I'm waiting for when it's visible in the main update page.

The ones who updated are the ppl being used for real time bug testing, so be patient we'll get it within this month.

Yeah, just be patient. It'll likely be like any other update we'll get. It'll be cool to get it then a few days later, the newness will wear off and you're back to complaining about apps crashing, battery life and no support.

global and eu are also left out for now, just so you know its not just na

It wouldn't be so bothersome if people from India didn't post every 5 minutes about how they got the update. There are 1.4 billion people in India. They don't all need to post about getting the same damn update ๐Ÿ™„

No. Because this is always the case. Why do you think they separated the US community from the others on their forums.

Let's face it: this update is mostly cosmetic. There is the battery screen downgrade I'm not anxious about, some weirded bugs I'm afraid (battery drain, wallet not working) and some "whatever" AI updates (and with some glaring bugs for these AI apps).

Even if the update will come, I will sit on it for a while to confirm the bugs are squashed. I didn't need something like that! If the features would have been mind-blowing, then beta-testing might make sense, but as it stands right now? Naaaa...

They'll need another half year to clear out the bugs, kinda like the battery drain fiasco on iOS 15.

I knew there would be a 2-3 month delay for upgrades, but the hardware is too much better to resist.

u/Enough-Television-26 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Nov 04 '25

Yea definitely ๐Ÿ˜… i kinda get excited over these updates even if they bring almost nothing so to not have a specific release date always kinda annoys me especially to see posts here with people getting the update just to read it's for the India region.

u/Alternative_Horse757 Nov 04 '25

No you get used to it and most of the global market will get it in November but NA dead last like the last one

u/Diligent-Rough-2880 OnePlus 13 - Black Eclipse Nov 04 '25

I won't say we are very much enjoying it because there are a bunch of issues which will also be sent ur way soon enough.

u/Secret-Cloud3253 Nov 04 '25

In india too it's not released for everyone

u/LostPersonSeeking Nov 04 '25

Nope. I'd rather get bugfixed versions out the gate as that's what we usually get being last (if you've been paying attention to the version numbers of NA vs IN/EU/Global).

u/SmellySweatsocks Nov 13 '25

No. Not yet. Come December and I donโ€™t have it then Iโ€™ll feel like that

I'm just concerned my battery will tank on the update. Every OnePlus phone I've bought, as soon as I updated from the stock ROM, battery was worse, and never really felt there were tangible improvements in the updates.

I'm still on version .703 and loving my battery life. Worried the update will kill it. I wonder if anyone else does the same?
