Oppo's new ColorOS 11 update brings a ton of customization options.

ColorOS from OPPO has over 350 million users worldwide. One of the big reasons for this considerable following is the fact that ColorOS offers several handy customizations over and above stock Android, which a lot of users prefer and enjoy. Now, ColorOS 11 has already been announced within weeks of Google launching Android 11, and as expected, it comes with several useful customizations above what Google offers.

Here's a list of five best features offered by Oppo's ColorOS 11:

Superior Dark Mode

It is a great way to keep an eye on incoming notifications with a glance without the need to switch on the screen, thereby saving battery life as well.

With ColorOS 11, this limitation has been addressed as users can now create custom patterns for the always-on screen from settings.
