With Oppo still rolling out the Android 12-based ColorOS 12 update to its eligible phones, the Android 13-based ColorOS 13 is set to be launched in the upcoming months.
Oppo, the sister brand of OnePlus and one of the top five Android brands already held the company’s ColorOS developer forum on June 8 2022. The virtual live event revealed the company’s rollout plan for Android 13 as they round up the Android 12-based ColorOS 12 distribution.
Google already released the Android 13 developer preview to some high-end devices which gave us some insight into what to expect from the next-gen Google OS. As we all know, Oppo will roll out Android 13 OS alongside its own ColorOS 13 interface.

Android 13-based ColorOS 13: List of Eligible Oppo Devices
As we all know, Oppo lacks a solid software update policy, unlike Google and Nokia which offers more than three years of major stock Android update. However, the Chinese phone maker owned by BBK Electronics is offering at least two-year major Android OS updates to every smartphone with the high-end F series getting up to three years.
As for Android 13-based ColorOS 13 eligible Oppo phones, It’s good to know that devices that didn’t receive the Android 12 update won’t receive the next-gen Android 13 software too. However, those that received Android 12 but have passed Oppo’s Android update policy which is either two years or three years might not receive the new update.
Following Oppo’s Android update rollout policy, we’ve compiled the list of devices that’ll receive the Android 13-based ColorOS 13 update. However, bear in mind that the list is not officially from Oppo, but based on the firmware update policy of the company. Also, since it’s not official, some devices will be added later as we confirm if they’ll receive the update.
