Recruitment for the ColorOS 12 closed beta program has started for the OPPO Reno Ace and Reno 10x Zoom in China, hinting at an imminent global update rollout for the duo.

With a post on the community forums, OPPO announced that OPPO Reno Ace and Reno 10x Zoom can now apply to receive the Android 12-based ColorOS 12 update before everyone else as part of the internal testing. Of course, updates rolled out through the internal testing channel may be plagued with deal-breaking bugs so it’s advised to only apply from a device that’s not your primary one.

OPPO warns that testers may run into bugs, abnormal power consumption, and app compatibility issues, so it’s advisable to not apply if you’re looking for a stable experience right now.

The recruitment already commenced on March 28 and will last until March 29, 18:00 CST so you’d want to hurry. To apply, head over to Settings > Software Update > Click the settings icon on the screen > Apply for Beta Version > Update Beta Version. Just make sure you’ve updated to the latest ColorOS 11 stable build (firmware version F.11/F.12) beforehand.

Now that ColorOS 12 is available as closed betas for the OPPO Reno Ace and Reno 10x Zoom in China, a global rollout shouldn’t take much longer. Of course, there will be a beta program first, starting with China which will then expand to more regions, so sit tight.
