Hi, I have seen quite a few posts about an available update (a few updates this month even) but my device is still showing last updated 29th Jan.

I know different carriers seem to add additional delays, but it seems odd that I've not had any updates yet. Once I hit 6 months I can get EE to unlock the phone, would that free me of carrier delays to updates?

Sorry, just coming back over to android after a long time so the update side of things is new to me. Thanks

Thanks ironass for all the information that you have provided and your time in doing so. when I bought my previous phone , OnePlus 5T, I bought it direct from OnePlus therefore CSC code would have been stock unbranded, therefore no bloatware.

That all changed with OnePlus after the release of the 6T model which has a T-Mobile (USA) variant running a carrier branded, ersatz, firmware which has received half the updates of the global model. 

Once U.S. carriers get their hands on a phone they screw it up with all their demands... like removing dual SIM from their models, adding loads of bloatware and locking down the bootloaders.
