OnePlus has started pushing a new OxygenOS Open Beta build for its OnePlus 7T series phones, which comes with quite a few new features and the June 2020 security patch (via Android Police).
The latest OxgenOS Open Beta 5 brings the one-handed mode, which rolled out to the OnePlus 7 series in January and was later removed. Another notable addition is support for Bluetooth hearing aids under Android 10's Audio Streaming for Hearing Aid (ASHA) agreement. It also adds a shortcut to turn on Dark Mode in the notification bar, an updated OnePlus brand logo, and a few bug fixes.
Here's the full changelog:

- Fixed the sharp edges of application cards in the recent apps screen
- Fixed the screen flashing issue after locking the device
- Updated OnePlus Brand Logo for a refreshed look
- Updated Android Security Patch to 2020.06
Bluetooth

Shelf

Phone

As announced by OnePlus earlier this month, it will now be releasing just one Open Beta build every month to deliver a more stable experience to users. This means the next Open Beta build for the OnePlus 7T series will only arrive early next month. Since a new Open Beta build for the OnePlus 7 series hasn't been released yet, we expect a similar build to be pushed out for the OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro phones within the next few days.
