Latest OnePlus Nord 2 updates
December 9, 2021: A new update is rolling out to the OnePlus Nord 2. Oxygen OS A.14 has a pretty anemic changelog and doesn’t have the December 2021 security patch. If you’ll remember, Indian handsets got the November patch in November, but now the EU/NA handsets are finally getting it. We’re not sure why this disparity is happening, but hopefully it won’t continue in 2022.
See the full changelog below.

- Optimized the stability of the system
- Updated Android security patch to 2021.11 (only for EU/NA)

Previous OnePlus Nord 2 updates
- November 16, 2021: A new unannounced update is rolling out to the OnePlus Nord 2. Spotted by XDA-Developers, and reported by a user on OnePlus’ Forums, Oxygen OS A.13/A.12 for India/Europe weighs in around 645MB and brings more nips and tucks to the mid-range device. Oddly enough, as pointed out by XDA and a screenshot from OnePlus Updater, the European patch includes the October 2021 Android security patch, not the November update slated for the Indian release.

- August 30, 2021: Oxygen OS 11.3.1.10 included power optimization for games, improved the Nord 2’s facial unlock system, and included the August 2021 Android security patch.
- August 3, 2021: Oxygen OS 11.3.A.08 rolled out system stability improvements and tweaks to the Nord 2’s camera system. The latter included optimizations to the HDR feature effect, and improved “shooting performance.”
