FULL STORY ======================================================================ColorOS 16 is rolling out to older Oppo phones It made its debut on the new Oppo Find X9 series phones This new update is Oppo's version of Android 16, and it adds many features Following the recent debut of the Oppo Find X9 and Find X9 Pro, older models in Oppos lineup now have something to look forward to: the global rollout of ColorOS 16 (Oppos version of Android 16). Find N5 and Find X8 devices started to see the update last week, and now anyone with Find N3, Find N3 Flip, or a Find N3 Pad 3 Pro can look forward to the update as it starts to drop this week. Later this month Reno14 and then Reno13 devices will see the ColorOS update, before a slew of other gadgets get it in December and later Q1 2026. Oppo shared the details in the image below: (Image credit: Oppo) But what can these devices expect to see from the update? AI Galore Well, as weve come to expect from software updates in 2025, the answer is, of course, AI. If you use your voice recorder regularly, AI recorder will automatically generate titles and summaries for the conversations plus ColorOS can deploy artificial intelligence to automatically scrub noise while enhancing human voices to make the recordings clearer. Your phone can also help you craft captions for your Instagram snaps using AI writer, or the same tool promises to be able to help you with more complex writing tasks like coming up with a project plan. Then theres AI mind space, which works particularly well with the Snap Key on the FInd X9 to make notes in this AI-powered diary, which collects voice notes, images, and other details which AI like Gemini can then use to help you, say, plan a vacation based on the notes and websites youve saved to your Mind Space. (Image credit: Oppo) You can also expect new photo tools like AI Portrait Glow, which can help fix your photos lighting troubles, and a new all-in-one video editor thatll help you adjust clips quickly even turning videos into Motion Photos and vice versa. Your edited photos (or unedited) images can then be put to use in the new Flux Theme homescreen designs. You can design the details to suit your desired aesthetics and needs, and I love how the AI can suggest smart edits and create depth on your screen by having text and elements sandwiched between foreground and background elements of your shots. (Image credit: Oppo) Theres Aqua Dynamics that serve as an alternative to a Dynamic Island / Now Bar, a new Luminous Design that shares a few aesthetics with Liquid Glass (which isnt inherently a bad thing as I think its done well), and speaking of iPhone there are some new integrations for people who use both Oppo and iPhone devices such as the ability to answer calls your iPhone receives on your Oppo. That's a lot of updates, but there are a few other upgrades you can expect to boot. To check them out, you can see Oppo's full ColorOS 16 breakdown .
