Oppo introduces Gemini and Circle to Search for ColorOS 15

Oppo is stepping into the future with its latest software update, ColorOS 15, showcasing an impressive leap in AI integration. After its initial launch in China,today, we learned that international users will get the Google-powered equivalents.

In a press release, the company officially announced that ColorOS 15 will bring the Gemini app and the Circle to Search with Google feature. The LLM will also work within the Notes and Documents app and offer an AI Recording Summary.

The Gemini app is essentially a revamped Google Assistant.By combining the intuitive capabilities of Google Gemini 1.5 Pro and 1.5 Flash, Gemini app now offers real-time answers and even has a chatbot for quick answers.

Speaking about the integration of Google’s Gemini technology, Oppo emphasized its potential to “boost productivity and creativity” across their devices. By embedding these tools into the very fabric of ColorOS 15, the brand aims to elevate how users interact with their devices, making complex tasks feel simple and intuitive.

Another standout feature is Circle to Search, which takes inspiration from innovations like the  Galaxy S24. This function allows users to circle any content on their screen to instantly search for information, translate text, perform currency conversions, or even copy/paste with ease.

The company talked about ColorOS 15 in general and did not reveal whether any Oppo smartphones might not get the features, and we highly doubt that would be the case. If the company deemed its devices to be powerful enough for AI, they will be capable of dealing with Google’s artificial services.

The global rollout of ColorOS 15 is set to begin on Thursday, November 21, alongside the much-anticipated international launch of the Oppo Find X8 series. As Oppo’s flagship devices, the Find X8 models are expected to showcase these innovations to their fullest potential.
