Oppo reveals official ColorOS 13 update timeline for December (stable and beta versions)

Peter, 01 December 2022

A large number of Oppo phones will be updated to ColorOS 13 this month. This includes phones that will get the stable version as well as phones whose firmware still needs a bit of work (those will get the beta version instead). Again, this is the list just for the month of December.

The official ColorOS 13 rollout timeline for December 2022

Oppo warns that the timeline is approximate and there may be unforeseen delays for specific models in some countries for certain carriers. Also, the update schedule for carrier-exclusive models depends on the carriers themselves.

With that in mind, here is the timeline. Recent high-end models will go up to ColorOS 13 over the next couple of week, then attention will turn to older and lower-end models. Note that some updates cover all territories, while others will arrive on a country by country basis.
