[Introductions] smasithick:
I was the Editor in Chief of Lovable Lumia, a fan site for Windows Phone. We had more than 20 lakh, unique visitors, from all over the world. We provided exclusive news that attracted so many fans. Many articles got featured on famous sites like Windows Central and MSPowerUser ({Mod edit}). With the demise of Lumia devices, the site was not managed and sadly hosting got expired and Godaddy deleted the entire site. But, my social media handles exist as proof of the existence of Lovable Lumia. ({Mod edit})

Also, developed award-winning Windows Phone apps and won so many flagship devices from Microsoft and Nokia like Lumia 1020, Lumia 1520, Lumia 950 XL, etc. Chennai Auto app was featured in Windows Central. ({Mod edit})

A few years back, I made a switch to Android flagship. Have a habit of knowing everything coming up in the technology world. I have a huge interest in Photography and Technology.

I had a chance to watch the Reno launch event on YouTube live. I was totally impressed with the top-notch specifications. Initially, I was planning to get another brand flagship and changed my decision after watching this keynote. Ordered a higher variant of OPPO Reno 10x Zoom on the very first day, without watching any actual reviews. When the device was delivered, I was completely satisfied and started exploring the Camera and Software. I made the right decision. I don't like stock Android with fewer features. ColorOS 6 came inbuilt with Oppo Reno 10x Zoom. It was very good.

I joined the ColorOS community (now OPPO Community) out of interest to contribute more for the users. One fine day, ColorOS SuperFan recruitment began. I've opted for that and I was selected too. And, started being an active member of the ColorOS Community. I became Pre-Creators Community Member.

ColorOS Pioneer recruitment began on some other day. With huge excitement, I've participated and won a free trip to the ColorOS 7 Launch Event. I can't even believe that it happened. As I said earlier, I have a habit of watching launch events. Now, I was invited to a Global Launch Event. Can you believe it? I asked myself. Yes! I won a trip to ColorOS 7 Launch Event and that made all the difference. Contributed to ColorOS 7 with valuable feedback and articles.

Here's my experience thread

Within months of joining the ColorOS Community, I was promoted as Creators Team Member.

I have written 90+ threads that gained me 225+ fans in ColorOS Community. My articles crossed 200000+ views. That was a great achievement in a smaller span of time.

Used to participate in ColorOS Contests and won many contests. Last year, I was awarded as the "Emerging Creator of ColorOS Community".

As a token of appreciation, ColorOS sent me an Honorary Certificate for my journey in Creators Planet.

Never seen such an awesome and inspiring Community. For sure, you'll grow with the community if you're active.

Published unboxing videos of OPPO F17 Pro ({Mod edit}) in YouTube.

My passion is all about exploring new and future things in Technology. Being a phone addict, I used to dig deep into new technologies. That said I've covered multiple things that are introduced like new chipsets, features, apps, device launches, software updates, reviews, etc in my articles. And that received tremendous response.

I'm here in XDA Forum to share my experiences!
