Last week, reported that OPPO had finished the ColorOS 12 stable rollout for January 2022. However, just a few days later, the company has proved us wrong. Because it has now started rolling out the update for two more devices that weren’t supposed to receive it this month. These phones got access to beta builds ahead of Christmas.

OPPO has begun to seed the Android 12-based ColorOS 12 stable update for OPPO Reno5 and OPPO Reno6. The OPPO Reno5 Marvel Edition also gets access to the new software at the same time. It is being pushed with the following firmware versions in Indonesia.

OPPO Reno5, OPPO Reno5 Marvel Edition

• Region: Indonesia
• Firmware Version: C.08
• Required Firmware: A.28, A.29

OPPO Reno6

• Region: Indonesia
• Firmware Version: C.08
• Required Firmware: A.10, A.11

In order to check whether their unit has got the update, users of the aforementioned smartphones can head over to Settings > Software Update.

Since the latest software update for the phone is being sent via OTA, it may take some time to reach every user. For the uninitiated, OTA rollout is usually carried out in a batched manner, so that the company can pull back the update easily without affecting many users in case of any major bug.

Having said that, if you happen to have installed the update on your OPPO handset, then do let us know your experience in the section below. This may help users who haven’t got it.

OPPO is known for releasing a wide variety of limited edition smartphones. The year has just begun and the company already has one such device in the form of OPPO Reno5 Pro+ 5G Artist Limited Edition. Now, according to a certification bureau, the brand may soon launch another such handset called ‘OPPO Reno5 Marvel Edition’.

Chinese smartphone maker OPPO partners with different parties for its limited edition products. But for the first time, the brand is cooperating with an old partner and world-renowned comic book publisher Marvel for the second time.

Back in 2019, OPPO released OPPO F11 Pro Marvel’s Avengers Limited Edition to celebrate the world’s highest-grossing movie Avengers: Endgame. Now, almost two years later, the company will be launching OPPO Reno5 Marvel Edition in the coming days, as per Thailand’s NBTC certification bureau.

But unfortunately, the certification does not reveal anything noteworthy. It only says that the phone will come with model number CPH2159 and will be limited to LTE connectivity. Both of these parameters confirm the special edition to be based on OPPO Reno5 4G and not the 5G version.

With that being said, the design of this phone is a mystery. Above all, it is not known on which Marvel character it will be based on. Going by Disney’s release schedule, the next MCU movie will be Black Widow starring Scarlett Johansson. Hence, this device could be for commemorating the release of the first-ever Black Widow standalone movie.
