Android 12-based ColorOS 12's global launch set for October 11
Yesterday Google announced the official release of Android 12, and soon after, Oppo announced it will globally launch Android 12-based ColorOS 12 next week - on October 11.
That means Oppo will introduce the global ROM of ColorOS 12 next Monday, which should be slightly different from the version announced in China last month and is already available for some Chinese Oppo and OnePlus units.

Oppo hasn't detailed the ColorOS 12 global ROM's rollout timeline yet, but the company is accepting applications for the Find X3 Pro's ColorOS 12 beta version in Malaysia and Indonesia.
If you live in any of these countries and own the Find X3 Pro, you can participate by navigating to your device's Settings > Software Update menu and then click on the gear icon in the top-right corner, then on Trial version > Beta Version, then fill in your information, and click on Apply now. If your application is accepted, you will receive an OTA. But do note that there are limited slots available, so you might want to be quick.

Because Bluewave is a BBK employee, of course he would say Oppo is good. Just look at his comment history, all the same BS "Oppo is good" and "Oppo is the best".
