At the end of last month, OPPO revealed the list of smartphones that will get access to beta and stable builds of ColorOS 12 based on Android 12 in February in China. Following that schedule, the company announced the open beta program for the OPPO K9 Pro 5G in its home country.
According to an official announcement post on OPPO Community China, the company has already finished recruiting the first batch of ColorOS 12 open beta testers for the OPPO K9 Pro 5G in its home market.
The initiative was supposed to begin for the device today (February 16). However, as usual, the brand had opened the registrations a day earlier and has closed today already.
The firm says that the applications will be reviewed within 5 working days. Participants who get selected will receive the update via OTA within 3 working days from the announcement of the result.
As far as stable release is concerned, OPPO hasn’t provided a timeline yet. But going by the rollout so far, the handset could receive it as soon as next month (March). The OPPO K9 Pro is a China-exclusive smartphone. Hence, there will not be any regional builds for this phone.
That said, the vanilla OPPO K9 5G is scheduled to get the Android 12-based ColorOS 12 stable update on February 22 alongside OPPO Reno5 K 5G and OPPO A93 5G. These three devices entered the open beta program at the end of December.
