With Pixel phones now running stable Android 15, other smartphone makers will look to upgrade their eligible devices. As expected, OnePlus has plans to start seeding the upgrade in the coming days. OxygenOS 15 will be based on Android 15. It will be presented by OnePlus on the 24th of October. The update, according to the company, is the “fastest and most user-friendly update” to OxygenOS.

Google has released the stable Android 15 update to Pixel phones. As expected, the latest release introduced the Private Space feature, which has been in development for months.

It is mostly a few months after the Chinese unveiling, and that isn’t changing soon, with the device now spotted on SDPPI website with a model number 24094RAD4G. The “G” at the…
