On August 30, OPPO held a developer conference, released a series of ecological products, and launched the ColorOS 13 smartphone system based on Android 13.
The author learned that ColorOS 13 is inspired by the source of life "water" to create a faster, lighter and more advanced system. ColorOS 13 uses a sunrise blue and sunset orange color scheme, selected from the 24-hour color changes at sea level from sunrise to sunset, and has been adapted from application icons to the system. The theme color is blue, the icons have been redrawn, the design elements are simpler, and the colors are easier to identify. In addition, water-related elements such as water waves and ripples are also integrated into the system clock, mobile phone manager and charging animation.
ColorOS 13 adds a blooming wallpaper function. The plants in the wallpaper will change based on the user's usage time and applications. For cross-device applications, the responsive layout 2.0 and refined virtual Omoji images have been upgraded. Users can apply personalized images in third-party applications such as WeChat and QQ.
The most critical part that affects the overall smoothness of the system is animation. ColorOS has always used the quantum animation engine to simulate the real damping feeling when the page is scrolled and the inertia effect of the physical world. On ColorOS 13, OPPO has added a new behavior judgment function, and the system will automatically recognize user operations based on . The
supercomputing platform is the focus of this update. This function can more accurately schedule mobile phone hardware resources, better release hardware performance, and save more power. Judging from official data, the overall performance has been improved by 10%, the battery life is better during gaming, and the temperature is lower.
ColorOS 13 adds a new scene-based information function, which is currently adapted to the main scenarios with the highest frequency of daily use, such as taking a taxi, ordering takeout, and listening to music. Users can listen to and switch songs while the screen is off, which reduces redundant steps and makes use faster and more convenient.
Cross-end calling and cross-end mutual transfer functions are also one of the important features of ColorOS 13. In ColorOS 13, users can answer incoming calls from mobile phones on their computers, and can also quickly send files from mobile phones and tablets to computers through OPPO mutual transfer. , to improve the interconnection and interoperability between multi-terminal devices.
OPPO also released OPPO Carlink this time. Carlink includes digital car keys, off-car butler, supports mobile phone unlocking, remote control of opening and closing of windows and air conditioning, and can also seamlessly transfer applications on the mobile phone to the vehicle, allowing navigation, phone calls, and music listening while driving.
In ColorOS 13, a new automatic coding function is added. When users need to share chat records with others, the system will code the recognized avatar and name, and supports long screenshots, which is very convenient to use.
When a user downloads a new application, it will ask for system permissions during installation, but most users do not know which permissions can be given and which permissions should not be given. In response to this problem, ColorOS 13 provides intelligent permission recommendations to help users filter application permissions and remind users of unnecessary permissions.
In addition, ColorOS 13 also strengthens the interception of malicious application behaviors, intercepting application behaviors such as self-starting, malicious associated startup, malicious pop-ups, and induced downloads.
There are no major changes to the ColorOS 13 system, but more basic functions are added based on ColorOS 12. However, the system UI and icons are indeed eye-catching, more beautiful and concise, the interaction is more convenient and smooth, and the details are more perfect. Stability and smoothness are what users care about most. The author learned that the ColorOS 13 system has opened early access on the Find X5/N series and OnePlus 10 Pro, and it is expected that more models will join in September.
