OPPO Reno2/Z, F11/F11 Pro, A9, and R17 receive stable Android 10 with ColorOS 7

OPPO’s ColorOS is known for borrowing inspiration from the design elements of iOS, but with the introduction of ColorOS 7 (our review), the company performed a complete visual overhaul on their custom UX while upgrading the underlying layer to Android 10. With the passage of time, the company published a preliminary timeline regarding the update rollout plan for the global units and eventually started beta testing of ColorOS 7 on the OPPO F11 series. After continuing the public beta event on several other phones for a while, OPPO has now started pushing out the stable Android 10 update to the global variants of the OPPO Reno2, OPPO Reno Z, OPPO F11, OPPO F11 Pro, OPPO A9, and the OPPO R17.

A recently released roadmap on the ColorOS global forums did hint about the arrival of the stable version of ColorOS 7 for the aforementioned phones (including the OPPO F11 Pro Marvel’s Avengers Limited Edition), while the OPPO Reno2 Z should join the club by April 25. The OPPO F11 lineup and the OPPO A9 share a common firmware, thus the build version of the Android 10 OTA is CPH1969EX_11.C.20 for all of them. The OPPO Reno Z is getting software version CPH1979_C.21, while the owners of the OPPO Reno2 should expect the build number CPH1907PUEX_11.C.25 for the latest update. Lastly, the OPPO R17 units are receiving CPH1879EX_F.03 build.
