Notably, the update is currently live for OnePlus Pad in India, with the update rolling out in other regions in the coming weeks. The update lands on the OnePlus Pad with build number OPD2203_15.0.0.301(EX01) and brings several new features including animation effects, AI Retouch, AI Notes, Flux themes, floating window and split view, etc.
Here is the complete changelog of the update:
Changelog
Ultra animation effects

Live Alerts

Photo editing
