Oppo Realme 3i comes with Android Pie 9.0 Color OS 6 as a default OS. There may be some situations where you have to flash your firmware manually. If you accidentally bricked your device, you can repair your mobile by flashing the firmware. Root users can flash the firmware using TWRP recovery. This Pie version has a lot of features like Adaptive Battery, Adaptive Brightness, and Realme Store. In my opinion, If you planned to use Custom ROMs, you can try this Custom Skin OS from Realme. Compare with other manufacturers; It is free from In-Built App Ads. You will receive a minimum of One Major upgrade. If you are a regular user, you don’t have to try other ROMs. Unofficial ROMs can make a lot of problems. It may have some major bugs.

Wrap Up
If you are in Stock firmware, Use Internal Memory method. It is comfortable and safe; You can update like a Regular OTA Update. But if you were already using Custom OS or Rooted devices, You can try TWRP Method. Don’t download any third-party apps; sometimes, it may trigger the updates process. In my opinion, Color OS is better to compare with some other Custom Skin OS like MIUI. So try to use this OS instead of a Custom OS. But the decision is your choice…:)
