Differences between ColorOS 13 and ColorOS 12

The previously released ColorOS 12 focuses on borderless design and acrylic icon. On this basis, ColorOS 13 integrates new aquatic design and draws inspiration from nature to build a new color system with "sunrise blue" and "sunset orange" as the origin.

Interaction

ColorOS 13 adds rich visual effects and icons. Taking the clock as an example, the tracing clock with real time is mapped. When it is turned on, the real-time sun orientation is combined in the daytime to simulate the light shadow effect produced by objects being illuminated at different times. At night, the dark mode is combined to emit diffuse light from the moon. The charging animation of the mobile phone also adds the particle absorption dynamic effect. Every milliampere of electricity is like a drop of water, and finally flows into the sea.

In addition, ColorOS 13 has supplemented the large folder function and the blooming wallpaper function. The former can enlarge the current folder by long pressing the folder and selecting "Switch to large folder". The latter will change according to the length of the user's mobile phone. With the increase of time, the original buds will slowly grow branches and leaves. When the length exceeds the set value, the plants will show a mineralized state, reminding us to put down the mobile phone. After daily use, the author thinks that this function is more humane and silent than the application of time limit and meditation mode.

On ColorOS 13, when you click the wrong application, the animation will be interrupted when you quickly draw up and exit, and a return parabola will be formed. The animation and gesture logic are perfectly unified. For another example, ColorOS 13 increases the sense of dynamic damping when sliding. The most intuitive feeling is that the page rolling resistance matches the hand speed. The grams are heavier when sliding slowly, and the sensitivity and sliding speed are not too high when sliding quickly. Moreover, there is a sense of slow deceleration from sliding to stopping. The interaction dynamic effect and interaction logic based on the quantum animation engine 4.0 are more consistent with our intuitive operation, That is what we call a fluent design that conforms to user intuition.

After the clock was turned on just now, I wonder if you have seen the illustration at a glance. Graphics is an extremely important visual language, which can creatively express human feelings, thoughts and concepts. To some extent, graphics is also an international language, which can bridge the differences between different nationalities, countries, languages and cultures. ColorOS 13 redraws from an international perspective, paying more attention to cultural adaptability in the context of covering multiple users around the world. More than 40 borderless illustrations covering multiple user backgrounds around the world are scattered in every corner of the system.

Information screen

ColorOS 12, together with wildlife photographer Joel Sartore, American graphic artist Matt W. Moore and other artists and art institutions, launched art albums with different styles. This year, ColorOS 13 has added more art albums such as aquatic design theme screen, home series public welfare AOD, art museum, etc. At the same time, the smart information screen interface introduces three scenes: take out, car hailing and listening to music.

Omoji

The main Omoji on ColorOS 12 has also been newly upgraded. Now you can not only display your unique Omoji personalized virtual image in OPPO account, information screen AOD, and third-party video call applications, but also directly apply your own Omoji personalized image when shooting or broadcasting with short video software such as Tiktok, Kwai, etc. by calling out the intelligent sidebar. "Omoji of ColorOS 13 has added more materials, including face shape, hairstyle, headwear, collar decoration, etc. For the face kneaders, it provides more than a hundred million kinds of material combinations, making the scene richer and the shape more changeable."
