Considering the recent updates to Huawei's EMUI and Xiaomi's MIUI, the new ColorOS would include a system-wide dark mode. Realme India CEO Madhav Sheth in an AskMadhav session on YouTube last month highlighted the arrival of ColorOS 7 and highlighted that its Realme-specific version will come with a nearly stock Android experience. However, the executive didn't specify any particular timeline for the ColorOS 7 update.

Realme is hosting a launch event in India on November 20 where it is launching the X2 Pro. It is likely to be the place where the company would announce the ColorOS 7 rollout for select Realme phones.

Meanwhile, Oppo is preparing the ColorOS 7 rollout for its smartphones. The Oppo Reno 10x Zoom is likely to be one of the first devices to get the latest custom skin along with a new Android update.
