ColorOS is Oppo’s very own customized Android skin that offers a plethora of features. At the same time, the OEM also makes sure that these features don’t end up taking a toll on the device stability. In this regard, the latest offering from Oppo, dubbed as ColorOS 11 is based on Android 11 and has managed to incorporate quite a lot of interesting features. Here are some of the most important ones
Improved Dark Mode
The dark mode was among the most requested features that Google finally addressed in Android 10. Oppo adopted the same in ColorOS 7 but it was not exactly along the lines of perfect. However, with Android 11 and ColorOS 11, we are likely to welcome a more uniform and stable dark mode implementation. Along the same line, you could now also schedule this dark mode, thereby giving the user more power to customize it as per their liking.
Improved Battery backup
While the 4000mAH battery is the new norm nowadays, but ‘mAh’ isn’t the only factor when it comes to battery life. There are a lot of optimizations and improvements going under the hood that decides the overall battery life. In this regard, you could expect improved battery backup with the new ColorOS 11 OS.
Double-Tap Gesture
One of the most interesting features to come out of Android 11, Oppo has also adopted the Double-Tap Gesture in the latest ColorOS 11 OS. You could now double-tap on the backside of your phone and control a designated app like the Google Assistant, Camera, and other such applications. While some might call it more of a gimmick feature, nevertheless, it is quite a handy option to have.
Back Gesture Improvements
With Android 10, users were treated with a new style of navigation gestures. However, it had one major issue: more often than not, the back gesture ends up conflicting with the hamburger menu. In this regard, there will now be the addition of sensitivity sliders that will control these back gesture. Since you could perform this action from both the left and right edge of your screen, these sliders are expected to present on both these edges.
Improved App permissions
Now an app will only be able to get permission till it is running in the foreground. Once you minimize it or close it, all the associated permissions will be revoked. Thus will make sure that the shady apps are no longer able to have access to your camera and speaker if they are present in a minimized state. Just select the Only this time option from the permission dialog box and you are good to go.
ColorOS 11 Release Date
