OPPO recently announced its operating system, ColorOS 13 globally for all OPPO users. ColorOS 13 includes a range of new features for smart multi-device connections to enhance user productivity. Here are the top 5 features of the new OS that will change your smartphone experience for good.
If the Smart Always-On Display in ColorOS 13 can now display information related to music and food delivery apps, giving users quicker access to information and more convenient control over music playback and other functions. OPPO has partnered with world-leading software and service providers, including Bitmoji, Spotify, Swiggy, and Zomato to offer localised customisation to the users. In a time when digital clutter has peaked for users, OPPO has brought in this feature to help users with their digital well-being.
Due to OPPO's industry-leading LTPO2.0 technology, the Always-On Display refresh rate is reduced to just 1 hertz to save 30% power consumption for some scenarios. Other smart home screen management features like Large Folders, Shelf, and Home Screen Widgets also help users efficiently and quickly access the information they need in the best way.
One of the most significant updates on ColorOS 13 is the improved multi-device user experience. Multi-Screen Connect now supports seamless connectivity between OPPO smartphones and OPPO Pad Air as well as OPPO smartphones and PC, boosting productivity and convenience through file transfer that supports more file formats without hardware limitations. Users connecting their smartphone to a PC via Multi-Screen Connect will also benefit from being able to display multiple mobile apps simultaneously on the PC screen.
With online meetings becoming increasingly common following the Covid-19 pandemic, OPPO has developed the industry's first Meeting Assistant for a smartphone. The meeting assistant can automatically prioritise wireless data packages to provide a more stable connection during online calls. It also simplifies banner notifications to minimise distractions while allowing users to add an OPPO Notes shortcut that helps to take meeting notes in a small pop-up window.
This is OPPO's new system-level technical solutions, developed in-house to deliver a more smooth and more stable system and overall improvements to the user experience. The engine brings two significant improvements to ColorOS 13, increased battery life and the ability to keep more apps open in the background. OPPO's Dynamic Computing Engine improves the scheduling of hardware resources to extend battery life by achieving a better balance between high performance and low power consumption. It also helps to keep more apps alive in the background, making it possible to switch between multiple apps without experiencing lag while switching.
Inspired by water's fluidity in nature, OPPO has introduced a brand-new Aquamorphic Design on ColorOS 13 to create a vibrant and inclusive UI. ColorOS 13 features a new theme palette inspired by the changing colour of light between sunrise and sunset at sea level, along with the new system font that improves the readability of system text in any language. With other upgrades like a Card-styled Layout, ColorOS 13 is designed to deliver a seamless visual experience based on Aquamorphic Design.
The users will be able to enjoy these updates soon. OPPO plans to update nearly 35 smartphone models within the year, covering more than 60 countries and regions and as many as 160 million users. ColorOS 13 will be available in the OPPO Reno8 Pro 5G in September, while for The OPPO Reno8 5G, the update will come in October.
