OPPO recently shared its ColorOS 11 update rollout plan for April 2021. Accordingly, it has started rolling out the update to devices like OPPO A91, Reno2 Z, Reno3 A.

In community posts, the company has confirmed the arrival of OPPO A91 and OPPO Reno2 Z smartphones. Originally, the devices were supposed to get it starting April 9 and April 14 respectively. If you recall, OPPO had began the Beta registrations for the Reno2 Z in mid-March.

The Reno2 Z seems to be getting the update a few days early. Anyway, the OPPO A91 users in Indonesia will get the update with firmware version F.11 and the company says that the devices should have previous firmware as C.51/C.53 to detect the new update.

Similarly, the OPPO Reno2 Z, which is getting the ColorOS 11 stable update in India, should be on the C.47 version to detect the incoming F.02 firmware version. That’s not all as the OPPO Reno3 A is also getting the Android 11 update in Japan as Piunikaweb report says.

The device is getting the firmware version CPH2013_11_C.16 in Japan according to screenshots shared by a few users on Twitter. OPPO Reno3 A launched in japan with ColorOS 7.1 based on Android 10 back in June 2020. With this, it is getting the first major update in the country.

The Reno2 Z, on the other hand, gets second major update as it launched with Android 9.0 Pie-based ColorOS 6 in 2019 and got the Android 10 update last year. The OPPO A91, which has been on the ColorOS 11 beta since February, also gets its second major update in Indonesia.

Anyway, the update will be rolled out in batches and if you are impatient, you can navigate to settings-software updates and tick the I agree in official version application in settings. That being said, the wider rollout should begin in the coming days.

OPPO shared the Q1 2021 rollout plan for the ColorOS 11 update a few months ago. As per the plan, the OPPO Reno Ace was supposed to get it around March, and accordingly, it looks like the update is already rolling out.

A tweet shared by a user a few days ago shows that the device has already got the update in Japan. That is, an OTA update with firmware version PCLM10_11_F.04 brings the Android 11 based ColorOS 11.1 for the OPPO Reno Ace.

OPPO brought the Reno Ace towards the end of 2019 in China and it launched with ColoroS 6.1 based on Android 9 Pie. Later, the device also landed on other markets including Japan. The current ColorOS 11 update for the 2019 flagship smartphone is coming as a second major upgrade after it got the ColorOS 7.

That said, OPPO’s latest version of ColorOS is actually the ColorOS 11.2 and it is running on its top-of-the-line flagships like Find X3 series and its sister brand OnePlus in China. Although OPPO isn’t seeding the latest version to the Reno Ace, it has managed to stand the test of the time when it comes to updating its older devices.

As promised, it has been sharing monthly schedule plans for the update rollout and the latest one for March 2021 indicates how committed the company is. So far, it has rolled out the Android 11 update to devices like OPPO Find X2 Lite, Find X2 Neo, F15, Reno 2F, Reno 10x Zoom as of this month.

Coming back to the update, you can expect all the ColorOS 11 goodies and if you want to know more, do read our coverage on the same. Also, expect the wider rollout for the device to go live soon.

OPPO recently rolled out the ColorOS 11 stable update for the Find X2 Neo smartphone. Now is the turn for the OPPO Find X2 Lite.

If you recall, the OPPO Find X2 Lite launched in April 2020 with Snapdragon 765G 5G chipset and came with ColorOS 7 based on Android 10 OS. So, the Android 11 stable update seems to be the first major update for the device.

Speaking of which, the report by Piunikaweb says that users of OPPO Find X2 Lite are getting a new update in Germany. The update has a firmware version CPH2005_11_C.76  and brings ColorOS 11.1 based on Android 11 out of the box.

The rollout is said to be an initial one so expect the other regions to pick it up in the coming days. Talking about features, the ColorOS 11 brings a lot of UI customizations, OPPO Relax 2.0, FlexDrop, and more. If you want to know the entire features of the ColorOS 11, you can read our extensive coverage on the same.

Earlier this month, OPPO announced the ColorOS 11 update rollout plan for the month of March. The list had several devices including the OPPO Find X2 Lite smartphone and it was supposed to receive it in the Netherlands.

OnePlus launched its OnePlus 9 series of devices in China a few hours ago. At the event, the company also formally explained the transition to the ColorOS that was confirmed already few days back. Additionally, it also revealed that older OnePlus devices can be upgraded to ColorOS via an update in the future.

OnePlus 9, OnePlus 9 Pro will ship with ColorOS 11.2 based on Android 11 in China. OnePlus calls this the ColorOS for OnePlus. That is, it’s essentially a tweaked UI but also has certain features of HydrogenOS retained. If you aren’t aware of the ColorOS, it is the Android skin of OPPO which also happens to be OnePlus’ sister brand.

OnePlus and OPPO have been getting closer with their relationship and a majority of their shares are already owned by a common OPlus(Oujia Holding Limited). Earlier this year, they merged their R&D department with each other but iterated that uniqueness in software will continue.

Just a few months later, they u-turned and officially announced the transition from HydrogenOS to ColorOS in China. Anyway, at the event, OnePlus said that the following devices can be upgraded to the ColorOS 11.2 via update:

• OnePlus 8
• OnePlus 8 Pro
• OnePlus 7T
• OnePlus 7
• OnePlus 7 Pro
• OnePlus 7T Pro
• OnePlus 8T

That said, OnePlus said that till they receive this, it will continue to keep the HydrogenOS updated. However, it hasn’t specified a specific rollout timeline yet so we will have to wait for the official word.

OnePlus recently released a flashable ColorOS beta build for the OnePlus 8 users so I guess it might get the stable update sooner than others.

So, what do you think about this transition? Do you want to see this happen in other markets too? let us know in the comments below.
