OnePlus and Realme Users Will Transition to ColorOS, OxygenOS and Realme UI to Be Phased Out OnePlus and Realme have confirmed that their custom Android skins, OxygenOS and Realme UI, will gradually be discontinued. The brands have announced they will shift to OPPO’s ColorOS platform in the near future. This move, referred to as “operational adjustment,” aims to streamline software development and provide users with a more stable experience. Details about the transition and its implications for users are outlined below. ColorOS Will Replace OxygenOS and Realme UI According to OnePlus, OxygenOS and ColorOS have already shared a common Android codebase. However, the company now plans to consolidate its software development efforts under a single platform. This change is expected to optimize resource allocation for engineering and research teams, accelerate software development cycles, and ensure faster updates for users. OnePlus emphasized that the transition will not alter the core identity of OxygenOS, which is known for its fast, smooth, and user-friendly experience. The brand assured users that hardware features such as performance, fast charging, and design will remain unchanged. Similarly, Realme stated that its Realme UI will be replaced by ColorOS, with no changes to user experience, hardware specifications, or existing software update policies. When Will ColorOS Updates Be Available? OnePlus India’s blog post mentioned that eligible users will receive the ColorOS 17 update after its official release. The update will be optional, allowing users to choose whether to upgrade to the new platform. However, the timeline for the rollout has not been disclosed. The company stated that the roadmap will be shared once it is finalized.#realme #realme_ui #coloros #oneplus #oxygenos
