While several OnePlus 10 Pro customers “search” for the OxygenOS 13 that cannot be found, the company starts the rollout for customers of a much cheaper smartphone, North EC. And it is also the last expected update, the latest version of Android scheduled for a product launched in June 2021 and which by virtue of the two promised major releases (it was launched with Android 11) now welcomes Android 13 as the latest of those planned. That doesn’t mean it won’t get any more updates, just that it will stay with Android 13.
The build that delivers the OxygenOS 13 to OnePlus Nord CE global units (those sold in Italy are among these) is the number EB2103_11.F.04. The company’s communication is very dry, so we don’t know if it arrives with the Android security patches of March, February or even January 2023. We don’t even know if the rollout has already arrived in Europeso when in doubt, it is advisable to manually check for updates available through the appropriate settings section.
