Oppo has been doing a good job with software updates, the company has rolled out Android 12-based ColorOS 12 beta updates for most of its eligible devices and the company has now announced that it will be releasing a stable ColorOS 12 update for the Oppo A76. The smartphone was launched back in March running Android 11 out of the box.
As per a recent announcement post on OPPO Community, the stable ColorOS 12 update with Android 12 is currently rolling out to the OPPO A76 in India. The update will soon make its way to other regions. If you own the Oppo A76, expect an OTA notification soon.
As usual, the update is rolling out in a phased manner, so it might take a few days before it makes its way to everyone. As of now, the update has only gone live in India, but OPPO says it plans to expand the rollout to other regions soon.
After installing the ColorOS 12 update, users should look out for loads of exciting features and changes. The update brings features including but not limited to a new wallpaper-based theming system, Screen Translate, Canvas AOD, Android 12’s Privacy Dashboard, and privacy indicators.
If you own Oppo A76, you can apply for the ColorOS 12 update by heading over to Settings > Software Update and tapping on the gear icon on the top right corner. On approval of the application, you will receive the new software in the form of an OTA update.
Back in 2021, Oppo updated its software update policy. According to the new policy, Oppo A-series smartphones will only receive one major android update. This means the ColorOS 12 is the first and final Android update for Oppo A76. However, the phone will continue receiving security updates for 3 years.
