As per user reports on OnePlus forums, the company has started rolling out OxygenOS 11.2.6.6 to the OnePlus 9R. It’s a small update that weighs 372MB and packs November 2021 security patches and stability improvements.

OxygenOS 11.2.6.6 has already started hitting the OnePlus 9R units in India. If you own one, look out for an OTA notification in the coming days. To manually check for the update, navigate to Settings > System > System Update. If you don’t want to wait, we have provided direct links to incremental and full OTAs which you can use to manually install the update. If you’re on OxygenOS 11.2.5.5, pick the incremental package. If you're running an older version, you'll need to flash the full OTA. After downloading the package, transfer it to the root directly of your phone’s internal storage and flash it using the Local Upgrade method within the System Update menu.
