After the launch of the OnePlus 9 series with ColorOS in China, the brand revealed its plans to update its older flagship smartphones to OPPO’s Android skin. The company even released ‘Early Access’ builds for certain models a few months back. At the beginning of this month, it also dropped the update schedule for eligible phones but did not explicitly mention the version of ColorOS. Now, one of the firm’s execs confirms that these handsets will be getting ColorOS 12.

Earlier today, the COO of OnePlus shared the ColorOS 12 release announcement post by the official Weibo account of ColorOS. To this, netizens replied that what’s the fuss when OnePlus 7, 7T, 8, and 8T series will be only getting ColorOS 11 update next year.

To one of these comments, the brand exec indirectly confirmed that OnePlus 7, OnePlus 7 Pro, OnePlus 7T, OnePlus 7T Pro, OnePlus 8, OnePlus 8 Pro, and OnePlus 8T will be updated directly to ColorOS 12. For those who want to know, his actual reply was ‘why upgrade to an older version?’

We also suggested the same when OnePlus shared the update timeline last week. Because all these phones are already running Android 11-based HydrogenOS 11. Hence, It does not make sense for the company to pour in resources to port ColorOS 11 with the same Android 11 base.

So this means the following OnePlus smartphones will get Android 12-based ColorOS 12 update during the following periods next year in China.

ColorOS 12 Stable
