OPPO has officially launched ColorOS 12 operating system for its global users.

Building on OPPO’s Infinite Design concept, the new OS will provide an inclusive experience that is packed with softer icons, animations, and information framework that are accommodating to different languages and cultures.

For its visuals, the new OS features Quantum Animation Engines that adopted 300 improved animations to achieve lifelike effects, that incorporate physical habits of resistance, inertia, and rebound.

Practical features such as PC Connect, 3-Finger Translate powered by Google Les, FlexDrop, and Phone manager are included to supplement user productivity. As for security, the new OS features improved security that grants access to Privacy Dashboards, Approximate Location Sharing; and Microphone and Camera indicators that supplement OPPO’s developed features of a Private System, Private Safe, App locks, and more.
