OnePlus announced OxygenOS 13 along with the OnePlus 10T launch last week. Later in the same week, the OnePlus 10 Pro received the ColorOS 13 beta in China. And now finally, the OnePlus 10 Pro gets OxygenOS 13 Open Beta 1 in North America and India. Samsung and Oppo are two other OEMs that have released Android 13 based open beta for their flagship phones. Let’s find out all about OxygenOS 13 open beta for OnePlus 10 Pro.

Android 13 Developer Preview was previously available for OnePlus 10 Pro, but it was not based on OxygenOS 13.

And as expected, the first OxygenOS 13 open beta for the OnePlus 10 Pro is out in India and North America. It will be available in Europe later.

Since this is the first OxygenOS 13 open beta, it may contain some major bugs along with some known bugs. OnePlus 10 Pro users running on version A.15 or newer can opt for Android 13 based OxygenOS 13 open beta.

The new OxygenOS 13 comes with a new UI language called Aquamorphoc Design by OnePlus. There are a bunch of new features that come with the first build of OxygenOS 13. OnePlus officially shared the news on the official forum, including the full changelog which you can read below.
