OxygenOS Open Beta 2 is now rolling out for OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro, bringing with it the March 2020 security patch and some other fixes that were seen with the OxygenOS Beta update for the OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro.

This second beta has come in super-quick fashion, as the first Open Beta for the 7T series was only released late last week. A post over on the official OnePlus forums confirmed the rollout of the second beta update, which includes some framerate fixes for the in-built screen recorder, problems with third-party keyboards, and optimizations for the adaptive screen brightness.

If you are already enroled, OxygenOS Open Beta 2 also brings the March 2020 security patch plus the new Instant Translation feature that provides real-time subtitles during video calls — similarly to the Live Captions that were added in the first Open Beta. You can check out the full changelog below:
