OnePlus 15 OxygenOS Update Arrives Earlier Than Expected

The OnePlus 15 barely reached users, yet its first big software patch is already rolling out. The OnePlus 15 OxygenOS update lands as a massive 2.3GB package loaded with new features and smoothness upgrades. The rollout marks one of the biggest day-one patches from the company in recent years.

A Heavy Patch With Faster App Launches and New Personalization Tools

OnePlus focuses heavily on speed with this update. App launches from the home screen now feel quicker. Moreover, the update brings deeper home screen control. You can rename widgets, stack same-sized widgets, and resize Flux clock themes with more freedom.

These changes push OxygenOS toward a more flexible and modern look. The experience feels more fluid, especially when switching between screens.

Photos App Gets Pro-Level Smarts

The Photos app receives one of the most practical upgrades. When you crop buildings, portraits, or objects with straight lines, the phone now straightens them automatically. This simple touch cuts editing time and improves everyday photo fixes.

Additionally, the update unlocks video ringtones. You can now assign short clips as incoming call tones, giving calls a more expressive feel.

A Cleaner Lock Screen and Upgraded Fingerprint Animation

The lock screen picks up a refreshed fingerprint animation with a modern glow effect. It is not a dramatic shift, yet it adds polished visual feedback each time you unlock the phone.

November Security Patch and Faster Protection Tools

The OnePlus 15 OxygenOS update includes the November 2025 security patch. Users get quicker virus scanning thanks to upgrades inside the Phone Manager. Background protection checks now run faster without slowing daily tasks.

AI LinkBoost Network Engine Finally Gets a Dashboard

Network stability also sees a boost. OnePlus adds a new interface for its AI LinkBoost Network Engine. You can now see real-time network optimization, latency reduction, and speed improvements.

The phone also alerts you when connectivity dips and network acceleration activates. A new built-in speed test shows upload, download, and latency numbers without installing third-party apps.
