Opposite F3 Nougat Update Forum Xda New Direct
Android 7.1.1 Nougat
The Oppo F3 officially received an update to (ColorOS 3.1) . While this was released back in 2018, it remains the last official major OS upgrade for the device due to hardware limitations like its MediaTek chipset. Update Features & Changes
- Performance: The update has brought a noticeable improvement in performance. Navigation and app switching feel smoother and more responsive.
- New Features: I've been enjoying the new features like split-screen mode, improved notification management, and the revamped settings menu.
- Security: The update includes the latest security patches, which gives me peace of mind.
- Thread Title: [ROM][F3][7.0] 100% Stock Nougat – No Root – No TWRP Required? (Spoiler: TWRP is required)
- Verdict: The ROM boots, but the touchscreen drivers are inverted on EU models.
Title: The Antithesis of Iteration: A Case Study of the “Opposite F3 Nougat Update” Phenomenon on the XDA Developers Forum
- Heavy skin: ColorOS still looks like iOS from 2014. Lag on app switching.

- Bloatware: 20+ Oppo apps you can’t uninstall without root.
- No quick unlock: Fingerprint takes 1 full second (was faster on Marshmallow).
