OxygenOS 13 vs ColorOS 13: Key differences

Lock Screen:

Starting with the Lock screen, both the software has a similar lock screen view. The Always On display feature of the two software is identical. Although, there are few changes in the wallpaper and texts.

 

Home Screen:

The home screen is quite different for both the software including the looks and how it interacts. You will notice that the icons for the two software are different. OxygenOS 13 has square-shaped icons while ColorOS 13 has round icons.

 

Quick panel:

You’ll see the same slider in the OxygenOS 13 and ColorOS 13 but the toggles are different. The toggle in ColorOS 13 is square-shaped with round corners.

On the other side, OxygenOS 13 has completely circular toggles and some extra tiles can also be viewed like the Wi-Fi connections, Music player, and Sim card for easy access.

The Quick panel of OnePlus’s operating system is much more exclusive than the other counterpart.

 

Notification Panel:

The notification panel plays a vital role in any software system. Here you can get quick access to the latest notifications, shortcuts, alerts, etc. Both operating systems have identical notification panels.

Recent Menu: 

The OnePlus latest operating system shows four settings options for the recent tabs that are Lock, Floating Window, Split screen, Hide content and Manage.

Whereas, in OPPO’s latest operating system there are only four options for the recent tabs. The Hide content option is not available here.

 

Settings Menu:

The Settings menu for both software systems is quite dissimilar. In OxygenOS 13 the similar setting options are grouped and placed in the same box while in ColorOS 13 the setting options are placed in a single row one after the other and are separated with a single line.

Alongside this, when you open the settings menu in OnePlus’s operating system, you’ll see the One-hand mode option on the top of the menu and in OPPO’s operating system you’ll see an Omoji option where you can create your animated Omoji.

 

As a result of this comparison, we find that there are various similarities in both software rather than differences.
