How OPPO and Google Are Redefining Mobile AI with Seamless Integration and Enhanced Security

In just a few short years, AI has evolved from a novel buzzword to a game-changing, essential tool that shapes how we work, connect, and live every day.

As a global leader in smart devices, OPPO has fully embraced this transformative power of AI, believing that smartphones are not just vehicles for AI, but the very engines that drive it. Key to OPPO’s ability to stay at the forefront of mobile AI innovation is strategic partnerships with tech innovators like Google that have set new benchmarks for what’s possible in AI on smartphones through versatile tools and powerful system-wide AI models.

Now, OPPO and Google are taking their partnership even further, working together to bring Gemini Vertex to the core of three main areas of Oppo's AI development — AI applications, AI models, and AI security — to bring users a secure, all-encompassing mobile AI experience that is constantly evolving every step of the way.

Advancing AI Through Open Collaboration

In today’s fast-paced world, users are not just waiting for the next big thing — they are expecting and demanding it, especially when it comes to mobile AI. The future of AI is about providing experiences that are truly intuitive, deeply personalized, and always up to date. But with such a broad range of expertise needed to cater to these diverse demands, a more open form of collaboration is essential to delivering these breakthroughs.

At the heart of OPPO and Google’s collaboration is the seamless integration of AI experiences across multiple applications in a way that simplifies everyday tasks and empowers users to reach their full productivity potential. Take Circle to Search with Google for example. This standout feature is now seamlessly woven into OPPO’s ColorOS operating system, making it possible to search by simply circling text or images on screen without switching apps. But it doesn’t stop there. Google Gemini, your truly helpful personal AI assistant from Google, can help you supercharge your ideas and productivity. Gemini can now pull information and help you take action across OPPO applications like Notes and Calendar. Without having to switch applications, you can now complete tasks all in one place, directly in Gemini.

Making these AI experiences possible is the collaboration between OPPO and Google to integrate individual AI algorithms, particularly the large language models (LLMs) that power these innovations, into OPPO devices. Among these is Gemini — Google’s most capable and general model, which is incredibly flexible. Through the integration of Gemini 1.5 Pro and Gemini 1.5 Flash, OPPO AI Phones have reached new levels of performance, responsiveness, and intelligence, unlocking an unparalleled AI experience and setting the stage for even greater possibilities ahead.

Ensuring a More Secure Experience with Private Computing Cloud

With both the rise of generative AI tools as an integral part of our daily lives and the need for cloud computing support to deliver these more powerful AI features, user privacy and data security have never been more critical. Through its partnership with Google, OPPO is committed to not only offering a comprehensive suite of AI tools but also prioritizing user security and privacy to create a safer AI experience.

OPPO is one of the first smartphone manufacturers to implement Private Computing Cloud (PCC), which leverages Confidential Computing by Google Cloud for private AI data processing. This approach guarantees that information from user devices and the cloud is handled in a confidential environment where neither OPPO nor third-party cloud service providers can access user data, offering users end-to-end security and peace of mind in an AI-driven world.

Starting with AI Recording Summary and AI Studio, OPPO will be using PCC to further enhance user productivity and creativity through powerful cloud-based AI processing without compromising its highest standards of security and privacy.

Delivering the Next Generation of AI, Now
AI technology is advancing faster than ever. But even with the breakneck pace of innovation, users are still hungry for smarter, smoother, more intuitive, and more personalized AI experiences.

To meet this seemingly insatiable appetite for the latest AI features, OPPO is answering the call by promising to roll out new AI experiences every month on average throughout the year.

OPPO is also gearing up to introduce the Gemini Nano model to its smartphones, enabling features like Magic Compose on the Find X8 Series helping users to generate messages in a range of different styles directly within Google Messages. Alongside this, the introduction of Gemini 2.0, Google’s most capable model yet built for the agentic era, is set to redefine the future of mobile AI experiences. All of these innovations ultimately aim to make AI feel like an integral part of the system, unobtrusively embedded into every aspect of the device. 

The upcoming AI Search feature, for instance, will transform how users interact with their device by enabling natural language searches across Settings, Documents, and Notes, for quicker results without trawling through multiple apps or pages. With more applications like Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and Calendar also making their way to OPPO devices, OPPO AI is set to become a true partner to refine the mobile experience even more.

By fostering a deep, open ecosystem with partners like Google, OPPO is paving the way for the next generation of mobile AI. Packed with features, reliably secure, and constantly evolving, the role of OPPO AI is to be both everywhere and nowhere at once, quietly working in the background but always there ready to be called upon when needed.
