vivo has officially announced the global launch of OriginOS 6, marking a new chapter in the evolution of its operating system. As the latest expression of vivo’s vision for the AI era, OriginOS 6 redefines the way people interact with technology through its core focus on smoothness, design, and intelligence.

According to Shi Yujian, Senior Vice President and Chief Technology Officer at vivo, the company continues to uphold its “More Local, More Global” philosophy, creating products that stay true to users’ needs while expanding its international presence. In celebration of vivo’s 30th anniversary, the global debut of OriginOS 6 represents a major milestone, reflecting the company’s commitment to innovation rooted in its “Origin Design” philosophy.

At the heart of OriginOS 6 lies the concept of Smoothness Mastery, a reimagined approach to performance and responsiveness. The new Origin Smooth Engine harmonizes computing, storage, and display systems to deliver a consistently fluid user experience that not only looks smooth but also feels and stays smooth over time. Built on the 8+1 Ultra-Core Computing framework, OriginOS 6 enhances app cold-start speeds by 18.5% and frame-rate stability by 10.5%, while Memory Fusion accelerates data loading by 106%. Dual Rendering technology further improves animation performance by 35%, maintaining frame rates that are 11% steadier during demanding use.

Smoothness is reflected both on-screen and in touch. The Origin Animation System introduces dynamic effects such as Spring Animation, Blur Transition, Morphing Animation, and One Shot Animation, creating motion that feels natural and visually coherent. vivo’s industry-first Snap-Up Engine prioritizes computing power for high-demand interactions like ticketing, keeping users ahead of the curve. Combined with up to 16% faster app launches across 50 consecutive apps and a 41% improvement in touch response speed, the experience feels effortless and immediate. Certified by SGS for sustained smoothness, OriginOS 6 is built to maintain performance even after five years of heavy use.

Beyond performance, OriginOS 6 embraces an intuitive and human-centered design inspired by nature. The Origin Design system harmonizes colors, shapes, icons, fonts, layouts, and depth to create a unified and visually balanced aesthetic. The newly refined vivo Sans font now supports more than 40 languages and offers adjustable weight for clarity and comfort. With enhancements such as Dynamic Glow and Translucent Color, the interface gains a sense of liveliness and depth that mirrors the natural world.

OriginOS 6 also introduces redesigned applications and features that make everyday interactions seamless and engaging. From checking device health in iManager to monitoring well-being in Origin Health, every element has been crafted for simplicity and focus. The new Immersive Weather feature visualizes environmental conditions in rich, interactive detail, blending realism with artistry. Personalization takes center stage through the new Lock Screen Grid, which allows users to freely arrange widgets, resize elements, and customize fonts and images. The reimagined Home Screen Grid adopts a sleek four-by-seven layout, with adaptive folders and Flip Cards that animate naturally as the phone moves, giving the home screen a dynamic, living quality.

Powering this new experience is vivo AI, a major leap toward personal intelligence. Developed in close collaboration with Google, vivo AI integrates advanced features such as Gemini and Circle to Search for smarter, more intuitive interactions. The all-new Origin Island, a contextual interaction hub at the top of the display, offers real-time updates and instant access to actions through Android 16’s Live Updates. It supports intelligent tools like Copy and Go and Drag and Go, which simplify multitasking by allowing users to act on information directly without switching apps.

In creative and productivity scenarios, vivo AI streamlines workflows through features like AI Retouch, combining AI Erase, AI Image Expander, and AI Photo Enhance into one smooth editing process. Smart Call Assistant, DocMaster, AI Creation, and AI Search make everyday communication and content handling more efficient. With Office Kit and One Tap Transfer, vivo AI seamlessly extends functionality across devices, ensuring uninterrupted work and creativity.

Security and endurance remain integral to the OriginOS 6 experience. The vivo Security framework strengthens data and privacy protection with transparency and on-device intelligence, while the upgraded BlueVolt technology improves power efficiency and thermal stability for longer-lasting performance.

OriginOS 6 will begin its global rollout in November 2025, with Malaysia among the first countries to experience it. The vivo X300 will be the first device pre-installed with OriginOS 6, marking the beginning of a new era of intelligent, seamless, and human-centered mobile experiences.
