Hey everyone,
We are very thrilled to announce the very first Android 11 Beta as part of the Developer Preview Program for the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro. We've been tirelessly working to provide early access to the latest flavor of Android to all OnePlus 8 series' users.
OnePlus devices are some of the most developer-friendly phones out in the market. By providing access to Android 11 at an early stage, we enable app developers and other early adopters in our community to start creating even better software experiences. For more information, please refer to

As the name suggests, this build of Android 11 is best suited for developers and other advanced users, as it is still in an early stage of development. That said, we do not recommend flashing this ROM if you have little to no experience in software development or flashing custom ROMs, or if you expect to use the device as a daily driver. Proceed at your own
