Nubia UI 5.0 brings a number of new features. For example, the icons are animated, so apps like the calendar will change icons according to the season (or weather). You can also long press on an icon to bring up sub-menu options just like you are right-clicking on a PC. There is split-screen multi-tasking and a bunch of other features too.
