This has sparked frustration among the users and they are even complaining to them if the OEM will not know about the latest update then who is responsible for this. So, as of now, it seems like the company also does not know the future of ColorOS 7.2 update and the exact date of release is also not in the picture. We will keep you posted if any information regarding this comes up.


Oppo joined the Android 10 bandwagon late as compared to other OEMs. However, once it joined it stuck with the update roadmap and updated a bunch of its eligible phones with the Android 10 ColorOS 7 OS. Just a couple of months ago, Oppo pushed the ColorOS 7.2 update based on the Android 10 update for the Oppo Reno 4 5G series phones. There were tons of new features included in the update.

Features like Moonlight Night View Video Algorithm, new Soloop Video Editor, AI App Pre-launch, updated Super Power Saving Mode with 3 Stage, Intelligent Album, OPPO LAB, and much more will make its way to devices receiving ColorOS 7.2. Finally, the Chinese OEM has now released the Android 10 based ColorOS 7.2 update for India. However, the only smartphone that is compatible as of now to receive ColorOS 7.2 update is the Reno 4 Pro in India. Let us talk about the features in detail:

AI Pre-App Launch

ColorOS 7.2 relies more on the phone’s AI features. And with the help of the AI Pre-app launch feature users will be able to easily and more quickly launch the most used apps on their phones. Notably, this is done by pre-loading the most used apps in the background before the user accesses them.

The AI learns from your daily habits and usage and grabs all the information. Then as per your usage statistics, the phone will automatically keep the apps running in the background giving your faster access to the apps that you use the most. Oppo touts that this technology results in app launch time, 23.63% faster.  Besides, the more you use this feature on your phone, the better the AI gets and the app launch time could even go faster as per more data available.

Oppo Lab

OEMs are now creating a dedicated place where the users could test out the features that are yet to come on the phones. Notably, Oppo has included the Oppo Lab, where users can try out the experimenting features.
