Today, the Yun OS official Weibo account confirmed that the Yun OS 3.0 will be launched in Beijing on October 20. In addition to the operating system itself, the launch will also showcase Yun OS hardware.

The post Yun OS 3.0 will be launched on October 20 in China appeared first on Gizmochina.

Yesterday, it was reported that a netizen successfully installed the Yun OS into their Mi 3. Now, not willing to let the Mi 3 enjoy all the fame and glory, someone also installed the Yun OS into their Meizu MX3. Does it work?

As the screenshots posted by this netizen show, the Yun OS’s lock screen, desktop, and notification bar are pretty clean and simple. Common features such as the Cloud Album and Safety Center are there. According to this netizen, his MX3 experienced high fluidity and better performance after installing the Yun OS 2.9.2.

In addition, the Yun OS is said to save more power than the Flyme OS but its unclear how long it can last. Many think that the snapshots are a sign that Meizu and Alibaba will work together. Meizu’s ex-CEO, Li Nan, did confirm that Meizu and Alibaba were in talks regarding a possible partnership. Could the Yun OS working with the MX3 be a result of this partnership?

Although the MX4 has been launched, it cannot be called a flagship phone in the truest sense since it has a Pro edition.

Insiders revealed that a new version with the Yun OS will come out next month. This phone will be the result of a cooperation between Meizu and Alibaba. They also revealed that this phone supports payment by fingerprint. If this is true, then this should be the MX4 Pro since it supports fingerprint recognition.

Take not that Huawei has already introduced the Mate 7 which is the first cellphone to support fingerprint payment. Its scanner recognizes fingerprints when pressed. Meizu must be using the same formula.

The difference though is that the MX4 with the Yun OS will still use the Kirin 925 processor like the Mate 7. Why? Because according to reports, Huawei’s chip offers the best security settings for fingerprint payments.
