ColorOS 13 introduces a new design language.Last month, Oppo had started rolling out the global version of ColorOS 13 for the Oppo Find X5 Pro and Find F5 with plans to update more than 20 devices in the coming months. Now, the company has announced ColorOS 13 beta based on Android 13 for the Reno8 Pro 5G and F21 Pro.
ColorOS 13 brings in several new features like the Aquamorphic design and card style layout. The latest version of ColorOS also marks the debut of the company’s Dynamic Computing Engine, which according to the developers helps increase battery, makes the user interface smoother and improves memory management.
Oppo claims the new OS also improves the existing Always-on display feature and introduces support for Canvas, Insight and support for Bitmoji. It also introduces a new Spotify widget that lets users control playback, switch between music and see the currently playing track.
Users in India will also be able to check Swiggy and Zomato information without even having to turn the screen on. Then there is the Auto Pixelate feature that automatically recognises profile pictures and names in chat screenshots and blurs them.
If you are interested in trying out ColorOS 13 beta, just head over to the ‘Settings’ app on your phone and go to the About device section. Then tap on the top of the page, open the three-dot menu on the top right and go to ‘Trial versions’. Once done, fill in your information and click on ‘Apply now’.
When the test version becomes available, users will get a notification after which they can install ColorOS 13 via software update.
