SHENZHEN, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 15 October 2025 – OPPO has revealed its first look at ColorOS 16, the latest version of its mobile operating system, launching with the upcoming Find X9 Series. The update sets a new standard across smoothness, intelligence and connectivity, delivering world-class responsiveness and game-changing cross-platform features for OPPO users worldwide.

Silky Smoothness Everywhere

Building upon the foundation of ColorOS 15’s Parallel Animation, ColorOS 16 introduces Seamless Animation, allowing every interaction to feel instantaneous and perfectly connected across the entire operating system.

This next-level fluidity is noticeable across various user scenarios, such as quickly opening and closing apps from the Home Screen, App Drawer, or Global Search, as well as switching between apps with gestures or navigating through multiple widgets. Within OPPO’s native apps, animations now start from the point of touch and return smoothly when dismissed. This creates a cohesive visual flow intended to make the entire system feel more intuitive.

Powering this next-generation smoothness are two core technologies: the All-New Luminous Rendering Engine and the All-New Trinity Engine.

The All-New Luminous Rendering Engine takes control of all visual components and renders them in parallel. This eliminates jarring between animations, ensuring the OS stays perfectly smooth—no matter how much is happening on your screen.

To address the needs of heavy-load scenarios like intensive gaming and heavy multitasking, the All-New Trinity Engine is introduced. It combines chip-level enhancements with smart resource allocation, ensuring sustained speed and power efficiency.

Beyond flagships, ColorOS 16 brings superior performance to entry-level devices through “Project Breeze,” a dedicated optimisation initiative that ensures a consistently smooth and more responsive experience even on hardware with more modest specifications.

Refined Design Inspired by Nature

ColorOS 16 introduces a refreshed design inspired by the interplay of light and shadow in natural scenarios, creating a cleaner, more intuitive interface that feels fresh.

Users can personalise their phones by setting Motion Photos or videos as wallpapers, choosing from a wide range of fonts, or letting AI suggest text styles that match their wallpaper.

Beyond traditional Always-On Display (AOD) capabilities, ColorOS 16 introduces full-screen AOD, enabling users to view their lock screen wallpaper alongside key information. A single tap transitions the AOD smoothly into the full lock screen for ultimate cohesion.

With Flux Home Screen, users can now long-press any folder or app icon to resize it into various shapes, such as tall, wide, or large formats. As a folder is resized, the surrounding home screen layout dynamically adapts to the new shape, accompanied by fluid animations powered by the All-New Luminous Rendering Engine.

AI-Powered Editing to Enhance your Creativity

ColorOS 16 adds AI Portrait Glow to its suite of photo editing solutions. This improves portraits taken in poor lighting by optimising skin tones and balancing light with a single tap.

AI Portrait Glow joins OPPO’s powerful suite of AI editing tools, including AI Eraser, AI Unblur, and AI Reflection Remover, giving users quick, one-tap ways to refine their photos.

The built-in video editor has been upgraded with Master Cut, offering trimming, speed controls, music integration, cropping, text, filters and manual adjustments for contrast, brightness and saturation.

Seamless Connectivity Across Ecosystems

OPPO continues to make it easier to use devices across ecosystems. Last year’s Touch to Share introduced smooth transfers between OPPO ColorOS 15 devices and iOS devices, followed by O+ Connect for advanced Mac integration with Find N5.

With ColorOS 16, O+ Connect supports both Mac and Windows PCs. Users can manage phone files from their computer or remotely control their computer from their phone.

Screen Mirroring lets users cast up to five apps from their phone and control them using a mouse and keyboard, particularly useful for situations where handling the phone directly is inconvenient, such as during a meeting or a lecture.

Availability

ColorOS 16 combines smoother performance, smarter features and superior connectivity in a single platform, reflecting OPPO’s vision for a smarter mobile experience for all.

OPPO will debut ColorOS 16 on its upcoming Find X9 Series. Stay tuned for the upcoming unveiling of ColorOS 16’s full potential to global markets.

BEIJING, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 5 February 2026 – In 2025, China achieved unprecedented milestones in technological innovation, from breakthroughs in artificial intelligence to advances in deep-space exploration. CGTN presents a feature article examining how these advances reflect not only industrial growth but also China’s evolving role in global innovation governance, highlighting the country’s commitment to shape international standards, foster collaboration, and address shared challenges like climate change and public health.

The World Intellectual Property Organization’s Global Innovation Index 2025 places China 10th globally for the first time, first among upper‑middle‑income economies and fifth in innovation output.
China leads the world in multiple intellectual property measures, hosts the most top‑100 innovation clusters – including the Shenzhen‑Hong Kong‑Guangzhou cluster now ranked first – and has the world’s second‑largest brand value at $1.81 trillion. Building on this momentum, China is advancing industrial leadership under its 15th Five‑Year Plan period (2026-2030).

Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) companies have developed more than 200 domestic large models and expanded AI deployment across industries. China’s “AI+” initiative integrates digital technologies with manufacturing and smart systems, and in 2025 China’s core AI industry exceeded 1 trillion yuan (about $142 billion) in scale, underscoring rapid expansion.

Alongside AI developments, China is also expanding its commercial space capabilities: Long March series rockets have launched clusters of satellites from south China’s Hainan Province, and the country has applied for frequency and orbital rights for 203,000 satellites to the International Telecommunication Union, planning a mega‑constellation by 2030 that could support a 1.2 trillion yuan industrial chain.

Complementing these industry advances, in 2023, Chinese President Xi Jinping proposed the Global Artificial Intelligence Governance Initiative, which outlines China’s constructive approach to global AI development and governance and has since informed subsequent international cooperation discussions and frameworks. In July 2025, China released the Global AI Governance Action Plan, a concrete follow‑up to the 2023 initiative that provides guidance for multilateral cooperation on secure, inclusive and human‑centered AI governance among participating countries and organizations.

China Media Group also outlined the top 10 AI trends for 2026, including globalization of AI governance, scaling computing power, widespread AI agents and multi‑modal interaction technologies.

Supporting these innovations, China strengthens R&D and institutional investment. In 2025, central state‑owned enterprises invested 1.1 trillion yuan in research and development for the fourth consecutive year and 2.5 trillion yuan in strategic emerging industries, while tax and fee reforms totaling about 10.5 trillion yuan during the 14th Five‑Year Plan period (2021-2025) boosted enterprise innovation.

Major fundamental science missions, such as Tianwen‑2 asteroid sampling and the Chang’e‑7 lunar water exploration mission, demonstrate growing long‑term research capabilities.

Looking ahead, China’s next five years of scientific and technological innovation will not be an isolated process. From satellite constellations to AI chips, each breakthrough contributes to addressing global challenges like climate change and disease control.

An innovative China, moving with openness and efficiency, is becoming a key engine for shared global progress.
