How To Speed Up Old Oppo Phones Easily?

There are various factors that hamper the performance of your Oppo smartphone. One of the major reasons is the insufficient storage capacity or old cache logs. Cleaning the memory or removing the unused heavy-sized apps does the trick most of the time. In some cases, viruses also affect the speed performance, so a thorough clean-up using an authentic Antivirus app saves the day. There are a bunch of additional steps that you can perform manually. Take a look:

Step 1: Close multiple apps running in the background and restart the device if required. This works if your device is not too old and might be slowing down with heavy RAM and ROM usage.

Step 2: Uninstall unnecessary large-sized third-party apps. This will free up some additional space from the device memory for efficient performance.

Step 3: Remove unwanted junk and cache files that slow down your Oppo phones. To do so, you can head to Tools (icon you can locate on the home screen) > Phone Manager > Clean Up Storage. Hit ‘clean’ after the last step and you are good to go. Note, these steps are for ColorOS 7.0 and above. Older ColorOS versions also have similar steps.

Step 4: Timely check for firmware updates. You can set the updates to automatic. However, manually checking them is a fool-proof solution that will enhance the performance delivery.
