Oppo: Change Your Device Name

Your Oppo phone shows up as a generic model number like Reno 2 in Bluetooth lists, Wi-Fi Direct transfers, and shared network folders. That makes it hard to tell your device apart from other Oppo phones nearby, especially in a household or office with several units. Renaming it fixes the confusion in every app and connection that reads this system label.

Change Device Name auf Oppo

Every Oppo phone stores a device name in the system settings. By default this name matches the model, for example Oppo Reno 2 or Oppo A94. That label is not just cosmetic.

Apps and connections read this exact field. Bluetooth pairing screens, Wi-Fi Direct transfers, network file sharing, and even some smart home apps display it when they list your phone. If several Oppo devices exist in the same household, the identical default name makes it impossible to tell them apart at a glance.

Renaming the device solves this. Go to Tap on SettingsTap on About phoneTap on Device name, then Enter a Name and tap on Save. The new name applies immediately across Bluetooth, Wi-Fi sharing, and any other feature that reads this system value.

This setting exists on Coloros regardless of the exact version installed, so the steps stay the same across most Oppo phones. If a name change does not appear where expected, restart the affected app (for example the Bluetooth settings screen) so it reloads the updated label.

Frequently asked questions

No. The device name is a local system label only. It has no connection to your Oppo account, warranty status, or IMEI.
