Apart from fans of pure Android OS, one custom ROM that is heralded for its unique and fluid build is Meizu‘s Flyme OS. Even as of several years back when other custom ROMs are being plagued with issues, Meizu’s Flyme OS has been outstanding. But in the past two years, Flyme’s progression seems to have slowed down drastically.
As early as the beginning of this year, Meizu Technology’s founder Huang Zhang (Jerry Wang) had revealed that Flyme 8 was already in the works. Since then, several details have been revealed but no date was fixed for the release. That is about to change as Meizu may officially unveil Flyme 8 on August 28. A press invite sent out by the Chinese company showed the company will the Flyme 8 OS alongside the Meizu 16s Pro. Already, the Meizu 16s Pro is expected to drop on August 28 and reservation is even ongoing.
Flyme 8 is expected to bring a new, refreshed look to the custom ROM with new features such as fingerprint vortex animation, small window 2.0, home guard 3.0, and game mode 4.0. The Meizu 16s Pro is expected to be the first model to get the new custom ROM version. Since the Flyme 8 has been a long time coming, we don’t expect the company to delay before rolling out updates to its old models.
