Google has finally done the most awaited task of the year, i.e. the release of the Android 11 OS. After months of beta testing, the OS is finally mature and is available for all the Pixel phones. Notably, not only Google, other OEMs including Samsung, OnePlus, Xiaomi, have started testing out the Android 11 updates for their compatible devices. This time around with Android 11 OnePlus is taking a different route with OxygenOS. Notably, the OxygenOS 11 based on Android 11 will bring Samsung’s One UI vibe to the table.

Basically, OnePlus is letting go of the stock and clean Android interface for what the company calls a convenient UI for one-hand usage. Well, this is the same explanation behind the development of Samsung’s One UI. Whatever the case may be, the company will be rolling out Android 11 OxygenOS 11 in the coming few days as it has recently gone under open beta testing for the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro devices. In this post, we will share with you all the details regarding OxygenOS 11 Android 11 including features, timeline, and list of eligible devices. So, without any further ado, let us get straight into the article itself:

Android 11 – Features

Android is already a mature operating system. And by mature, we mean that there is almost very little chance of getting a complete overhaul with the upcoming Android versions. Besides, more emphasis will be given on improving the already existing features and how more features can be added to enhance the usability of the Android devices. The same is in the case of Android 11. Though the OS brings some new features, most of the features are enhanced and improved to a better new version. Let us take a look at the top features of Android 11.
