Con colpevole ed enorme ritardo la casa madre mette a disposizione degli utenti, una versione beta di Android 4.4.2 KitKat per Oppo Find 7 e Find 7a.

In un periodo dove tutti i più grandi produttori di smartphone e tablet al mondo stanno rilasciando gli aggiornamenti di Android 5.0 Lollipop per i propri dispositivi di punta e non solo, Oppo ha reso disponibile, con enorme e colpevole ritardo, l’aggiornamento ColorOS 2.0.4i Beta che introduce Android 4.4.2 KitKat per Oppo Find 7 e Find 7a.

Android 4.4.2 ma ancora in beta

Purtroppo, come anticipato, l’aggiornamento rilasciato ufficialmente da Oppo attraverso il proprio forum ufficiale è ancora in versione beta ma porta con se già diverse novità rispetto alla precedente versione quali, un miglioramento generale del comparto fotografico, la nuova organizzazione della home screen, modalità di utilizzo con una mano, nuovi widget e molto altro ancora.
