Vivo is set to officially release the OriginOS 5 custom skin at the 2024 Vivo Developer Conference in Shenzhen on October 10. Today the company has initiated the internal beta testing for the upcoming version of its custom skin. The registration period is from 11:00 AM CST on September 25th to 11:59 PM CST on October 6th.

OriginOS 5 improvements:

OriginOS 5 brings various detailed dynamic effects with improved fluency, wallpapers that reportedly have a depth of field, customized lock screen widgets, new lock screen wallpapers, a centered Dynamic Island-like interface, and finally, a deeper integration of AI.

The new OriginOS 5 reportedly offers a “system-level” and “scenario-based” experience with a self-developed large language model, which reportedly is multimodal and covers multiple dimensions such as language, voice, vision, and terminal side.

Vivo devices that are eligible for OriginOS 5 internal beta testing:

  • vivo X100
  • vivo X100s
  • vivo X100 Pro
  • vivo X100s Pro
  • vivo X100 Ultra

Notably, a preliminary setting of 2,000 people will participate in the internal testing for each model, of which 300 will have Log-in enabled by default and 1,700 will not. However, the final number of places will be appropriately allocated based on multiple dimensions such as the registration and the degree of completion of information filled in. It’s reported that the beta test list will be announced before 10:00 PM CST on October 8, and the deadline for joining the beta program is 8:00 PM CST on October 9.

Users looking to join the internal beta program should note that they will need to update their device to the specified version or later version to ensure that the internal test version can be detected. Then they will be able to find the corresponding registration entrance through System Upgrade-Internal Test Registration to apply. Also, users aren’t recommended to create a backup of their data and proceed with caution as the software is still in its internal beta phase.

Here’s the complete list of vivo and iQOO devices eligible for the Android 15 update.
