OnePlus 6T android 11
Is TMobile not updating the OnePlus 6T to Android 11 any longer? The software development page no longer list OnePlus 6t as devices getting software updates.
Quoting something from 2018…

Things obviously can change but the 6T is beyond the 3 year point.
I am bound by the NDA for the FUT program just like everyone else. Knowing how these builds are chosen, they aren't cherry picked. It's about a 1 to 3 ratio. You deal with your first party customers first and best and then worry about the others just enough to keep them happy. Asking for information and getting all defensive when it isn't what they want to hear isn't going to win further replies to the thread.
The days of carriers doing much of anything with updates for any devices are long in the past. During the initial decision to buy and resell the OnePlus devices, T-Mobile chooses the features and terms of the updates they will get for the retail life of that product. Those things were decided before the 6T went on sale. With the merging of ColorOS and OxygenOS. There is no way a company is going to waste their time on a providing updates for a device that is beyond Even the 7 Pro and 7T's are end of life. Take a look at this OnePlus official post about the merging of the two OS's. 8 and newer are te focus. You might get a security update or two for your 6T or 7-series, but that is all you can expect. Especially with the OnePlus 10-series coming in 2022.
