One time that you can get your phone bricked by installing this build, before proceeding it’s recommended to perform a backup of your data. To flash Android Q Preview, you’ll need at least 3GB of storage available in your smartphone. Furthermore, don’t try to install it if your battery level is below 30%.
Android Q arrival should happen between August and September. Thanks to the Beta program, OnePlus flagships will surely be among the first smartphones to receive the next version of Google’s OS. Worth mentioning that the OnePlus 6 and 6T are also part of Android Q Dev Program, and already have received the second beta.
