Extremely Advanced Smoothness, Connectivity Systems, and Leading the World’s Users into a New Era of Modern Technology
Global leading smartphone brand OPPO has now launched ColorOS 16, the new operating system version that will become users’ favorite, together with the OPPO Find X9 Pro and OPPO Find X9, often called the “Best Phone of 2025”. Building on the renowned smoothness and unique connectivity of ColorOS 15, ColorOS 16 sets a new standard in overall system smoothness, more advanced AI features, and connectivity, while bringing world-class fast responsiveness and groundbreaking cross-platform compatibility especially for O Fans using OPPO devices.

Silky Smooth and Swift Performance
Based on the famous Parallel Animation of ColorOS 15, ColorOS 16 introduces Seamless Animation, making every action across the entire operating system feel connected with unprecedented speed and responsiveness.
This top-tier smoothness and swiftness can be clearly felt in the Home Screen, App Drawer, or Global Search when quickly opening/closing apps, switching between apps using gestures, or viewing various widgets.

Even in OPPO smartphones’ basic applications, animations start moving from the exact point users first touch and smoothly return and stop when users pause, creating a natural and easy-to-use system. This new-generation ColorOS 16 smoothness is primarily powered by two core technologies: the All-New Luminous Rendering Engine and All-New Trinity Engine, familiar to OPPO users.
The All-New Luminous Rendering Engine controls all visual components on the smartphone and renders them simultaneously, eliminating inconsistencies in animation movements and ensuring stutter-free, swift performance no matter how many tasks are on screen.
For intense gaming and heavy multitasking scenarios, OPPO ColorOS 16 introduces the All-New Trinity Engine. This engine creates advanced chip-level improvements with smart resource management, stably maintaining OS speed while optimizing power efficiency to the highest level.

Not limited to flagship smartphones, ColorOS 16 can enhance performance even on entry-level devices through a special optimization called “Project Breeze”. It ensures consistently smooth screen experience and faster responses on smartphones with lower hardware specs.

The Finest Design Inspired by Nature
OPPO’s ColorOS 16 introduces a new design based on the interplay of light and shadow in nature, creating a cleaner, more user-friendly interface while showcasing the evolved beauty of ColorOS 16. Users can customize Motion Photos or Videos as wallpapers and choose from various fonts. AI even suggests text styles that match the wallpaper for detailed customization. Going beyond ordinary Always-On Display (AOD), ColorOS 16 introduces Full-screen AOD. With Full-screen AOD, important information is shown on the Lock Screen wallpaper, and a single tap smoothly transitions to the full Lock Screen.
With the modern and customizable Flux Theme Home Screen, long-pressing folders or app icons lets you resize and reshape them freely. When resizing a folder, the Home Screen layout automatically adjusts, accompanied by smooth, swift animations supported by the All-New Luminous Rendering Engine, captivating users’ eyes.

Reinventing the Engine
The All-New Luminous Rendering Engine evolves from Parallel Architecture to Unified Seamless Architecture, fully upgrading the Android Rendering Framework. This removes barriers between system modules, allowing independent rendering of each module, resulting in smoother visuals, user experiences, and instant responses without delays.

AI-Powered Editing to Boost Users’ Creativity
ColorOS 16 adds the new AI Portrait Glow for photo editing. It naturally enhances skin tones in portraits taken in low light for a more beautiful, glowing look, with one-tap light and shadow adjustment. AI Portrait Glow works seamlessly with OPPO’s renowned powerful AI editing tools like AI Eraser, AI Unblur, and AI Reflection Remover, letting users edit photos easily and quickly with a single tap. The built-in Video Editing Tool is upgraded with Master Cut, supporting trimming long sections, speed controls, adding music for vibrancy, cropping, text and filters, plus detailed manual adjustment of contrast, brightness, and saturation.
Additionally, the increasingly popular Motion Photo Collage among young people allows turning 4K Video Motion into Live Photo collages. Previously, users needed third-party apps for such collages, but now ColorOS 16’s Motion Photo Collage lets you create them as desired. You can also directly ask and get advice from Gemini via Gemini Live for anything you want to know.

The Smoothest Cross-Ecosystem Connectivity
OPPO has long strived to easily connect different ecosystem devices. Last year’s Touch to Share feature introduced with the Find X8 Series enabled the smoothest data transfer between ColorOS 15 OPPO smartphones and iOS devices. Then, O+ Connect was introduced for advanced easy connection with Mac on the Find N5. With ColorOS 16, the further improved O+ Connect works on both Mac and Windows PCs. Users can directly manage phone files from the computer and even remotely control the computer via phone.
Screen Mirroring supports displaying up to 5 applications on the phone screen simultaneously, controllable solely with mouse and keyboard. This is especially convenient in situations like meetings or online classes where directly handling the phone is inconvenient.
