vivo is preparing to launch OriginOS 6, the next iteration of its proprietary operating system, with a global rollout scheduled for October 15th. Preceding the official release, vivo has released promotional materials highlighting key advancements.
The company has released two videos that demonstrate improvements in user interface (UI) smoothness and the implementation of a redesigned animated island feature, which is located around the front camera cutout. This updated island design leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance user interactions.
The first video showcases significant improvements in the responsiveness and fluidity of the UI. Transitions between screens, application launches, and general app navigation appear optimized for speed and seamless operation.
The second video details the redesigned island notification feature, similar in concept to Apple’s Dynamic Island. In OriginOS 6, this feature will utilize AI to provide contextually relevant actions based on the active application.
For example, the demonstration video highlights the Gallery app integration. When a user drags a photo towards the island, the island presents intuitive sharing options, streamlining the sharing process.
OriginOS is poised to expand beyond its current exclusivity in China with this release. The formal unveiling of OriginOS 6, built upon the Android 16 platform, is scheduled for October 10th in China, followed by the global launch on October 15th.
