OnePlus One wrote in an online forum yesterday, “our friends over at Cyanogen have informed us that CM 13.0 based on Marshmallow will drop starting tomorrow. The drop will be stages so only some of you (random) will get it at first, and as always, patience is appreciated.” The new software that is expected to reach the device is Android 6.0.1, which was first announced in November, 2015. The version comes with core Marshmallow features like Doze and Google Now on Tap.

OnePlus One was launched in India in December 2014 and was then available with Android 4.4 Kitkat. The company designed its custom Android ROM, with an intention to rival Cyanogen, in December 2015, which was a year after its official launch in India. The custom ROM was named Oxygen OS. The company already released the latest Oxygen 3.0 beta for its OnePlus Two devices last month which brought the latest in terms of OS to the current flagship device of the company.
