This update is now rolling out over the air. If you don’t feel like waiting for it to hit your OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren, you can manually check for it by going into your Settings app and selecting System > System update > Check for update.

Also receiving an update this week is T-Mobile’s Galaxy Note 8. The update is version N950USQS7DTA5 and includes the February 1, 2020 security patches.

If you’ve got a OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren or Galaxy Note 8, let us know when your update arrives. And you OnePlus owners, tell us if this update makes a noticeable impact on your 5G speeds!

 

UPDATE: T-Mobile has confirmed to PCMag that this update enables the OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren to utilize 600MHz LTE and 600MHz 5G at the same time to boost 5G download speeds. It also enables 5G uploads in more places and, thanks to the combined 600MHz 5G and mid-band LTE, should get you more upload bandwidth in some areas.

 

Thanks Andrew, Tim, and Nick!
