The OnePlus 6 and the OnePlus 6T have become top-selling smartphones in the country. When OnePlus launched these phones, they saw massive sales owing to the specifications which they ship in a very attractive price tag. Now, the Chinese brand has landed in India with its latest offering the OnePlus 7 Pro. Now since we have talked enough about the device itself, it is time for us to talk about what the OnePlus 7 Pro brings on the software front. We have already taken a quick look at what the latest OxygenOS will bring for the users, however, a major question among existing OnePlus users is when these features will be available for OnePlus 6 and the OnePlus 6T?

This time, OnePlus has put a special emphasis for the India users and has announced that it will integrate some features in the OxygenOS which will be exclusively for Indian users.

We have also come to know that these features will start making their way to the OnePlus 6 and the OnePlus 6T through the OxygenOS Open Beta and the first feature to show up on these devices will be the “Cricket Score” which the phones will receive later this month. The rest of the features will start rolling out to thee devices in June.
The next important feature which the Indian OnePlus users will be seeing in the latest OxygenOS is the Caller ID.

Apart from telling you the Caller ID, this feature will mark spam calls so you can avoid picking them up and block them.

The Smart SMS app would be another useful functionality as it will categorise and organise up to 39 different categories of apps for easy and contextual actions.
