OnePlus begins rolling out a new software update for the latest OnePlus Nord 6. The brand has just released the Nord 6 in Indian markets, and it’s already started getting its first software update with new functions and March 2026 security patches.

Notably, the brand announced the OnePlus Nord 6 on April 7 in India, and today the company has rolled out the first OTA firmware update in India and global markets.
