There are a few caveats to be aware of it you own an Oppo device and want to join the ColorOS 12 beta. The first of which is that this timeline does not include any carrier-exclusive models, as Oppo states the updates “are determined by carriers.” Next, the company plans on releasing the beta on a “batch-by-batch basis”, meaning that it may arrive in some regions before others, regardless of the device.
