During a special event, held today by Oppo in Shenzen, to celebrate the 5th anniversary of ColorOS, the company unveiled the 6.0 version of its proprietary Android skin. The ColorOs 6.0 brings a refreshed and brighter design, machine learning features, and a new font. The company took the opportunity to announce that its software is installed on more than 250 million devices in over 140 countries and regions.
The new ColorOS 6.0 took some guidelines from Android Pie bringing a light color scheme, which mainly mixes a white backdrop with light color gradients to complete the design. According to Oppo, the choice of white was made to bring an airy atmosphere to its customers. Of course, the Dark UI lovers will have their eyes bleeding.
The company also claims that its newest software is made with bezel-less smartphones in mind, but will also offer support for older Oppo smartphones. Speaking of it, the company is yet to disclose the official list of smartphones that will be updated to ColorOS 6.0.
