From the tracker, it is evident that Oppo has made some decent strides but owing to the sheer number of devices across various market segments, Oppo still has a long way to go.

In a bid to organize its efforts and to give the public an idea of what the company is focusing on, Oppo often publishes its roadmap/plan for various months and quarters.

This often lists devices that are set to get various builds of the company’s custom Android skin, be it Beta builds or stable releases.

In the publication, we saw that March 9 is set to be a big day for users of a number of Oppo devices as that’s when they’re set to bag the stable Android 11 updates.

The Beta build for the Oppo Reno2 Z was expected sometime this month and the March 17 release date is right on target. The Oppo A72 5G’s Beta build is reportedly already out in Kazakhstan.
