Vivo Rolls Out OriginOS 6 Globally to Replace FunTouch OS

A staged beta on X200 Pro plus iQOO 13 signals a shift to one unified software line.

Overview

  • OriginOS 6 arrives as an Android 16–based skin with a glassy, iOS‑style visual design noted in early coverage.
  • The update introduces Flip Cards, a lock‑screen feature that switches between chosen wallpapers as the phone tilts.
  • Reports highlight tighter Mac integration alongside a new Connection Center for screen mirroring, file transfer, and task handoff.
  • Vivo confirms a phased rollout, with new models shipping with OriginOS 6 and updates for existing devices beginning in early November.
  • The move consolidates vivo’s software by bringing OriginOS to global markets after years of using FunTouch OS outside China.
