- OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite 5G Update rolls out OxygenOS 15
- Enhancements include luminous UI, Live Alerts, and advanced window management.
- New features improve connectivity, battery life, and privacy.

OnePlus has officially announced the rollout of the stable version of OxygenOS 15 for Nord CE 3 Lite users. The update brings several new features and improvements, although it is disappointing that no AI features are included in this release. Nevertheless, the update promises to enhance the overall user experience with significant upgrades.
The OxygenOS 15.0.0.400 update introduces luminous UI rendering, Live Alerts with improved interaction, and advanced window management, including Floating Window and Split View gestures. Connectivity improvements include OnePlus Share for iOS file transfer, while battery features such as charging limit aim to protect the device’s longevity. Privacy has been enhanced with a dedicated hidden apps folder, and unique touches, like an Easter egg in the Calculator app, reflect OnePlus’ playful “Never Settle” philosophy.
Currently, the firmware version CPH2467_15.0.0.400(EX01) is being rolled out exclusively in the Indian region. However, it is expected to be available in other regions soon. The size of the update is currently unknown, but if we recall, the closed beta was around 5.52GB, so the stable version might be of a similar size. During the closed beta, there were some issues with Live Alerts, such as notification thumbnails not aligning properly with the text. Thankfully, this issue has now been resolved.
