OPPO has revealed details of the ColorOS 17 interface for users in Thailand, bringing OPPO's AI forward as an assistant for both planning and executing tasks.
OPPO introduced details of the new ColorOS 17 interface version for users in Thailand under the concept “Flow Your Mind with OPPO AI.” The main highlight is AI Agent Mode within AI Mind Pilot, developed in collaboration with Manus, an AI agent platform developer. This mode enables AI to understand user goals, plan, and manage multi-step tasks on a smartphone from a single command, rather than just answering questions as before.
AI Agent Mode builds upon Ask Mode from ColorOS 16, which integrated AI models such as Gemini, Perplexity, and ChatGPT in one place, allowing users to compare answers from multiple models and receive personalized advice from data stored in AI Mind Space. The new mode in ColorOS 17 can search, analyze, and organize files or photos on the device within user-approved limits. Initially, it supports both Manus and ChatGPT, available free within set quotas that may vary by country or region. Existing account holders can connect their current accounts to use their existing packages.
An example use case OPPO provided is travel planning: AI will gather flight tickets, hotel bookings, and attraction tickets, then categorize, rename files, and create a travel itinerary. It can also combine local data with online information to create websites or presentation files, organize photo libraries by location, person, or set conditions, and even make selected images into vlog cover photos.
Regarding privacy, OPPO states that AI Agent Mode can manage files on the device without sending original files to third-party AI services. The system explicitly requests user permission each time before uploading data externally. Tasks requiring cloud processing use Private Computing Cloud (PCC), which OPPO says is designed to prevent third-party access, including OPPO itself. Data transmission between device and cloud uses Post-Quantum Security technology. A PCC Transparency Report allows users to check which AI services were accessed and when, with reports viewable and exportable directly from the device.
ColorOS 17 also includes AI Call Guard, which uses on-device AI to detect scam risks, including AI-synthesized voices and AI face swap fraud, alerting users when anomalies are detected. This feature is currently available only in Indonesia, India, and Thailand.
On the photo editing side, AI Photo Agent lets users edit photos using natural language or reference images to set tone, mood, and style without switching tools or adjusting settings manually. The system analyzes photo components and suggests editing approaches. This feature operates on six specialized OPPO AI photo models designed to preserve original photo details and ProXDR effects even after AI editing. AI Photo Agent will roll out gradually in multiple countries with monthly usage limits and will launch in Europe later.
Other updated features include AI Mind Space, a personal data hub now enhanced with Long-doc Capture for recording lengthy content and AI-based summarization, plus support for saving YouTube and TikTok links. Smart Collections automatically categorizes related data. AI Mind Suggest displays contextually relevant information at appropriate times, such as travel details, trip change alerts, and music recommendations on the home screen. For communication, AI Live Interpreter translates ongoing conversations via headphones and displays text on the smartphone screen, supporting OPPO Enco X4 or OnePlus Buds Pro 4 connected to certain OPPO or OnePlus smartphones. Additionally, OSee uses the camera to translate menus, scan documents, or search for information about objects with a single shutter press.
