OnePlus Sets Oct. 16 Global Launch for OxygenOS 16

OnePlus is pitching an AI-first build with Google Gemini inside Mind Space for on-device help.

Overview

  • The software is based on Android 16 and bakes Gemini into a new Mind Space hub for generative and contextual assistance.
  • OxygenOS targets non-China markets, as OnePlus devices in China continue to run ColorOS.
  • The upcoming OnePlus 15 is expected to ship with OxygenOS 16 pre-installed, according to multiple reports.
  • Closed testing is already running on the OnePlus 13 and 13R, with outlets reporting an open beta shortly after launch and stable builds projected by year-end.
  • OnePlus has not released an official supported-device list, so tech sites and community trackers are sharing provisional eligibility rosters.
