As per the official OnePlus forum page for the OnePlus Nord N10 5G, the latest update comes with OxygenOS version 10.5.9. The European version of the phone gets firmware version 10.5.9.BE89BA while the North American version of the phone gets 10.5.9.BE86AA.

It also improves network stability on the OnePlus Nord N10 5G.
OnePlus says that just like previous updates, this over-the-air (OTA) update will be incremental. It will only reach a small percentage of OnePlus Nord N10 5G users in the regions first, and then to the masses in a few days.

OnePlus Nord N10 5G was launched in the European markets back in October. It was launched alongside the OnePlus Nord N100 as budget-friendly phones part of the Nord lineup. Earlier this month, both the phones were made available in North America as well. OnePlus is yet to launch the two phones in India but there is no information on if and when it will do so.
Back in November last year, it was reported that the OnePlus Nord N10 5G and the OnePlus Nord N100 will receive only one major Android update. Both phones launched with Android 10. If the report turns out to be accurate, the Android 11 update, whenever it drops, will be the last major OS update for the two phones.
