A bunch of OPPO devices has been treated to the ColorOS 12 update based on Android 12 in multiple regions. Depending on where you live, all of them are either sold as part of the Reno series or not, so it’s best to get the confusion out of the way before anything else with a neat little list.

ColorOS 12 based on Android 12 is now rolling out to the following devices in their corresponding regions:

• OPPO Reno4 Lite — Kazakhstan
• OPPO A93 — UAE
• OPPO Reno5 Lite — Kazakhstan
• OPPO A94 — UAE
• OPPO Reno4 F — Indonesia
• OPPO F17 Pro — India
• OPPO Reno5 F — Indonesia
• OPPO F19 Pro — India

The Reno4 Lite is the same as the A93, the Reno5 Lite is the same as the A94, the Reno4 F is the same as the F17 Pro, and the Reno5 F is the same as the F19 Pro — with the only difference being name between each of the two variants.

As usual, the OTAs are being sent out on a batch basis, meaning it may take some time for the update to reach your device. If you haven’t yet received a notification, then you can try checking manually by heading over to Settings > Software update. Just make sure you’re on the latest available ColorOS 11 update beforehand, though.

ColorOS 12 arrives with a number of new features and improvements over the previous version. Elements have been given visual tweaks throughout the interface, be it icons, the quick settings panel, or system apps. Some Android 12 goodies are present too, such as the new Privacy Dashboard and microphone and camera Indicators.

Earlier this month, an OPPO phone with model number CPH2205 was spotted at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) certification platform. The FCC listing revealed the rear design of the phone along with some specifications. Today, the CPH2205 phone appeared on Geekbench (via. Abhishek Yadav) to reveal its processor and RAM capacity.

The OPPO CPH2205’s Geekbench 5 listing shows that it is powered by the MediaTek MT6779/CV chipset which is believed to be the Helio P95 SoC. The listing further reveals that it has 6 GB of RAM and it is preinstalled with Android 11 OS.

The FCC appearance had revealed that it is a 4G LTE phone backed by a 4,310mAh battery. It is unclear whether it carries support for fast-charging. The handset was found to be equipped with connectivity features like dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

The screen of the OPPO CPH2205 measures 159mm diagonally, which suggests that it has a 6.2-inch display. The phone has 160.1 x 73.32mm dimensions. The rear panel of the phone has a rectangle-shaped camera housing that includes a 48-megapixel quad-camera system and an LED flash.

Unfortunately, the identity of the CPH2205 is under wraps. Another OPPO phone with model number CPH2203 was approved by Singapore’s IMDA authority recently. The listing revealed the device will be hitting the market with the OPPO A94 moniker. There is a possibility that the CPH2203 could be a country variant of the CPH2205. However, there is no confirmation on it yet. Hence, it is advisable to wait for further reports to know the final product name of the CPH2205.
