ColorOS 12 beta recruitment has commenced for the OPPO Reno3 in Indonesia and the Reno3 Pro in Indonesia and India. OPPO kicked off the recruitment process earlier today and will accept applications till April 30.
This is a limited beta, therefore, the company will only be accepting 5,000 participants each for the OPPO Reno3 and the Reno3 Pro. Applications will be reviewed within 5 working days following which selected applicants will get an OTA for the update after another 3 days.
OPPO Reno3 users need to check they’re updated to firmware C.24, in order to receive the OTA. This can be done by heading over to Settings > About Phone > Version Information > Version Number. Reno3 Pro users, on the other hand, need to make sure their devices are updated to version C.23/C.24 to receive the OTA carrying the ColorOS12 beta build.
It should be noted here that the ColorOS 12 update that will be rolled out will be a beta, meaning it’s not guaranteed to provide a stable experience. It’s true that the builds will have passed internal testing, but they’ll likely be rough around the edges, so expect bugs and abnormal power consumption. Therefore, it’s not recommended to apply for the beta unless you’re sure of what you’re doing.
OPPO also warns that since ColorOS 12 is based on Android 12, some third-party applications may run into compatibility issues — although the version has been out for months now so you should be just fine. Also recommended is backing up the data prior to the update process.
To apply for the open beta, head over to Settings > Software Update > Click the settings icon on the screen > Apply for Beta Version > Update Beta Version.
