The OnePlus Nord 3 is now getting a new update which improves battery life and security. This update is marked as OxygenOS 13.1.0.581, and it’s rolling out as we speak. Do note that the rolloiut is starting in India, though, so you may have to wait for a bit longer to get it.
New OnePlus Nord 3 update improves the phone’s battery life
First and foremost, this update integrates the September 22023 Android security patch into OxygenOS. Therefore, it improves the overall security of the phone.
That being said, in the changelog, OnePlus also notes that this update reduces power consumption when the device is idle, and also when certain apps are in use. That should improve the battery life overall.
It is also noted that the stability of network connections is also improved with this update. The last entry in the changelog states that the update also boosts system stability on the phone. So, some bug fixes have probably been issued too.
We still don’t know how large is this update, but chances are you’ll get it soon if you haven’t already. It’s rolling out over the air (OTA), though this is a staged rollout, of course, and aimed at one country at the moment.
This device launched back in July
The OnePlus Nord 3, as many of you know, was announced a couple of months ago. It launched at the beginning of July, and it’s OnePlus’ mid-range offering, a rather powerful mid-range phone, though.
The device not only looks quite modern, but it comes with respectable specs. It includes a large 120Hz AMOLED display, and the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 processor.
The phone also had three cameras on the back, led by a 50-megapixel main unit. Stereo speakers are included, as is a 5,000mAh battery. The phone supports 80W fast wired charging, and a charger is included in the package.
It’s also worth noting that the OnePlus Nord 3 is IP54 certified, which means it’s both dust and splash-resistant.
