The company\u2019s latest teaser emphasizes just how \u201cfast\u201d and \u201csmooth\u201d the software update is.<\/p>\n<p>On Threads, OnePlus posted a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.com\/@oneplus\/post\/DPlIc6bkpXt\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">15-second clip<\/a> about OxygenOS 16. The OS is supposed to <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2025\/09\/22\/oneplus-15-redesign-teaser\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">launch on October 16<\/a>, so the company is trying to drum up some excitement.<\/p>\n<p>The video doesn\u2019t show much in the way of new features. We know that Mind Space is getting a new Gemini integration, though details are limited on that. During the few shots of OxygenOS 16 in the video, Mind Space can be seen across swipes. The app doesn\u2019t look to tease any of Google\u2019s AI model on-device.<\/p>\n<p>The phrase \u201cSo fast. So Smooth.\u201d appears on screen at the end of the video, and that\u2019s essentially what the teaser is trying to convey. Quick swipes across the screen of what might be the OnePlus 15 can be seen among clips of someone going to town on a keyboard. The flat display and boxier frame seem to indicate that OnePlus might be using its new phone to tease the new software \u2013 go figure.<\/p>\n<p>\tAdvertisement &#8211; scroll for more content<\/p>\n<p>Plenty of other apps are shown in the clip, though nothing seems to stand out as inherently new or breaking. It\u2019s simply a tease of how fluid Android 16 will be on OnePlus devices.<\/p>\n<p>OnePlus previously confirmed that several generations will see an update to OxygenOS 16 based on Android 16. That includes the OnePlus 13, 13R, 13T, and Open.
