Vivo has officially unveiled the latest OriginOS 6 that is based on Android 16 OS. The company recently confirmed which iQOO and Vivo devices will receive the major software upgrade, and now, we finally have an official release schedule for these models. So here’s everything you need to know.
What’s New with Vivo’s OriginOS 6
The Chinese tech giant showcased the OriginOS alongside the BlueOS 3 and CarLink 3.0. But the highlight of Vivo’s annual developer conference was undoubtedly the Android smartphone custom skin. The next gen software will power new and existing Vivo and iQOO branded devices, bringing redesigns to the user interface. This offers changes to the look of the home page, lock screen, apps, and much more.
Users now have in-depth customization options for widgets on the home screen, while also bringing Apple Liquid Glass inspired UI. The widgets are getting more curved, apps are now circular, and plenty of refinements. Vivo integrates its new Blue River Smooth Engine for improved computing, dual rendering architecture, smoother animations, and more responsiveness to the interface, making app switching more seamless as well.
AI is also a major focus of the OriginOS 6 update, offering deeper integration of AI powered tools like AI phone assistant, AI summary, AI photo elimination, Circle to Search 2.0, and better contextual understanding of what’s on the smartphone’s screen. Image editing is also getting an upgrade with AI, allowing users to enhance resolution of pictures, remove objects or people (even from Live Photos), and convert pictures to PDFs.
