For those not aware, OxygenOS Open Beta builds give you access to features that are not public yet, so you can get access to many new features before the majority of the OnePlus users. However, these are not stable builds, meaning you’re likely to face a couple of issues while using your phone. And if you’re fine with that, you can join the OxygenOS Open Beta Program anytime and install the Open Beta 4 update.

Before you proceed, don’t forget to back up your OnePlus 8T and make sure that the battery level is above 30%. Also, 3GB of available storage space is required for the update process to be smooth.

You can now go to the Settings > System > System updates to install the latest OxygenOS 11 Open Beta update.
