On February 22, OPPO kickstarted the Android 12-based ColorOS 12 beta program for five smartphones. At the same time, the company had also started seeding stable update for four devices. These phones include OPPO Reno5 K 5G, OPPO K9 5G, OPPO A93 5G, and OPPO A72 5G.

According to official announcement posts on OPPO Community, the company has been rolling out ColorOS 12 stable update based on Android 12 for four new handsets in its home country China since yesterday (February 22).

In order to receive the new software update on their smartphones, users are required to be on the following firmware versions.

• OPPO Reno5 K 5G – A.21, A.22
• OPPO K9 5G – A.10, A.11
• OPPO A93 5G – A.14 or above
• OPPO A72 5G – C.10, C.11

If they are, then they can head over to Settings > Software Update to check whether their unit has received the update. If not, they will have to wait a bit longer as the rollout is happening on a batch-by-batch basis.

Anyway, every user should get the Android 12-based ColorOS 12 stable update in the coming days. Hopefully, the release doesn’t bring any major issues.

In China, three more phones will get the stable update by the end of February. Similarly,  four more handsets will enter the beta program as well.
