OnePlus has started rolling out the ColorOS 17 update for the OnePlus 12 earlier than planned. The Android 17-based update was originally scheduled to arrive on November 17. However, the rollout began today, bringing new features and interface changes to the 2023 flagship.
For now, the update is limited to users. It arrives over the air as version CPH2573_17.0.0.100(EX01). Like previous releases, OnePlus is distributing it in batches. Therefore, some users may have to wait a few days or weeks before receiving the update. The rollout is expected to reach other markets soon.
ColorOS 17 brings several changes to the interface, led by a new Luminous Rendering Engine. It adds fluid animations and lighting effects across the system. The update also introduces a fluid clock that moves between the Always-On Display, Lock Screen, and Home Screen.
Meanwhile, Quick Settings and the notification drawer have received a redesign. System apps also feature updated layouts, while a new floating-island navigation design appears across the interface.
Performance improvements are another major part of the update. The upgraded Laminar Flow Engine uses smarter memory management to reduce lag. It should also prevent apps from closing unexpectedly while running in the background.
OnePlus has also expanded its AI features. Mind Space can now save and summarize documents. It can also create travel maps based on users’ trips. AI Suggest and Live Alerts now support train and flight journeys. They also display ride updates from Uber and Ola.
Additionally, the new AI Highlights feature brings weather updates, calendar events, and trending news together. The update also introduces a redesigned Translate app. It offers faster real-time translations, which users can activate with a triple-tap. Supported earbuds also allow users to start translation with a pinch gesture.
Security and audio features have received attention as well. ColorOS 17 can detect AI face-swapping attempts during video calls. It can also identify AI-generated voices in scam calls. Furthermore, users can now play audio from multiple apps simultaneously. The ColorOS 17 update brings a substantial collection of changes to the OnePlus 12. However, users outside India will have to wait for the rollout to expand to their markets.
