OPPO has officially launched the Android 17-based ColorOS 17 update in China.
The new ColorOS 17 will feature upgrades in performance, visuals, connectivity, health, and of course, AI. Here are some of the highlight features and the update schedule.
Visual Improvements
While we’re not seeing a drastic redesign, ColorOS 17 still has a few visual refinements to make it special. It introduces the new Fluid Design for more consistent design, animations, and touch feedback.
There’s the new Aurora Engine, which has been integrated with the rendering architecture. Fluid Animation handles the transition to ensure they are uniform across the interface.
Performance Upgrade
ColorOS 17 brings new efficiency features for improved performance. The Polar Light Engine trims app start-up and runtime memory by 25%, and reduces rendering workload by up to 30%.
There’s also the new Tidal Engine, which improves background app retention by 55.6%, app launch stability by 35%, makes scrolling and loading third-party photo galleries 50% faster, and makes small app launches load 30% faster.
Updated Connectivity
The new ColorOS 17 gets Car+ for linking your OPPO smartphone to your vehicle’s infotainment screen. There’s the Walking-Navigation Handover that can seamlessly transfer the map from your phone’s small screen to your car’s large display when connected.
OPPO also updated ColorOS to work with NAS devices and third-party cameras.
New Health Features
For ColorOS 17 smartwatches, there’s going to be a FatMax fat-burning mode with modular watch faces. There’s also the Sports Fluid Cloud, which syncs heart rate data and calorie intake across supported devices like tablets and watches.
New AI Features
OPPO AI gets upgraded AI Notes, real-time translation with supported OPPO earphones, and a beefier HeyTap assistant that’s more personal and can help you manage your monthly bills, travels, daily commute, and more.
Many AI features are used for security and privacy. There’s the AI Cross-App Anti-Fraud protection, AI Face-Swapping Detection, and AI Call Anti-Fraud.
