OPPO launched the Android 12 based ColorOS 12 in China last month. A few hours ago, the company confirmed that there would be a global launch event on October 11 for the latest version of the software. At the same time, the company also revealed its new software update policy.
Last year, Samsung announced a new software update policy for its smartphones and tablets. The company became the first non-Google brand to offer three generations of Android updates and at least four years of security updates. A few months ago, OnePlus also joined the bandwagon, followed by Xiaomi. Currently, OPPO offers similar software update to its handset.
The Chinese tech company says it will go ahead with three Android updates for the OPPO Find X series, two Android updates for the OPPO Reno and OPPO F series, and a single Android update for selected OPPO A series models.
The Find, Reno and F-Series will also receive four-year security updates, while the A-Series will be limited to three years. Most importantly, the new update policy only covers OPPO smartphones released from 2019.
OPPO has already launched off ColorOS 12 Public Beta program in China for the first batch of eligible phones. Ahead of the ColorOS 12 Global Launch Event, the company also unveiled an international version of the software for a handful of users interested in the OPPO Find X3 Pro in Malaysia and Indonesia.
We expect the company to reveal the list of eligible handsets and the update timeline at next week’s conference. Currently, OPPO has confirmed that Android 12 based ColorOS 12 will be available for 110+ devices and 150 million users worldwide.
