Do note that the update is currently being rolled out only to folks who have enrolled in the OxygenOS beta program.

And, as usual, the update might take a couple of weeks to full roll out. So, in case you haven’t received the update notification already, you might have to wait for a while. Alternatively, you can visit Settings > About phone > Software update to check for it manually.
