vivo has officially launched Funtouch OS 15 for international markets, marking a new era of enhanced mobile experiences. Designed with user feedback in mind, this latest version is vivo’s interpretation of Android 15, offering unparalleled smoothness along with a range of new personalization options. Funtouch OS 15 optimizes features for photography, gaming, and productivity, seamlessly connecting vivo users to the digital world and boosting efficiency in everyday tasks.
Go Beyond Smooth: Experience Unparalleled Fluidity
Funtouch OS 15 improves the overall fluidity of the Android system and the animated elements that bring the device to life. By replacing Android’s existing Fair Scheduling algorithm with vivo’s proprietary Priority Scheduling model, Funtouch OS 15 prioritizes computing power for foreground processes. This results in a 15% increase in average app startup speed, even under overload scenarios.
To further enhance performance, the new Memory Enhancement Technology employs an optimized zRAM memory compression algorithm, resulting in a remarkable 40% increase in compression speed. Additionally, it reduces GPU memory consumption for background applications, enabling users to run multiple apps simultaneously without compromising the device’s smoothness.
Funtouch OS 15 introduces vivo’s exclusive Origin Animation, enhancing animation smoothness and interaction responsiveness. The Lightning-Speed Engine establishes a dedicated channel for executing animations, boosting app startup speeds by 20%. Inspired by nature, the Aqua Dynamic Effect adds fluid, water-like animations to system interactions, making every touch feel smoother and more natural. Additionally, over 700 touch scenarios have been optimized through extensive ergonomic research, ensuring a consistently smooth touch experience.
Note: These features are available on select models. Data is sourced from company labs, and actual performance may vary.
Naturally You: Craft Your Own Digital Space
Funtouch OS 15 empowers users to express their individuality. With 3,800+ redesigned design elements, including updated system colors, fonts, icons, and illustrations, Funtouch OS 15 offers a clean and minimalistic aesthetic. Users can further personalize their devices with a wide array of options, including nine general system themes and a variety of Static, Immersive, and Video Wallpapers. Four new fingerprint recognition animations, customizable app icon styles, and adjustable icon shapes and sizes provide even greater control over the user interface.
Be Pro, So Easy: Efficiency at Your Fingertips
Recognizing the integral role smartphones play in everyday life, Funtouch OS 15 enhances creativity, elevates entertainment, and boosts efficiency. The AI Image Lab allows users to automatically enhance photo quality and remove shadows from documents using AI-powered tools. For avid mobile gamers, the upgraded Ultra Game Mode introduces a convenient sidebar with a performance panel, game tools, and the Game Small Window feature. This allows for quick access to social apps and easy setting adjustments, such as the screen refresh rate and touch sampling rate, without interrupting gameplay.
In terms of productivity, Funtouch OS 15’s optimized Link to Windows feature enhances cross-device collaboration between vivo devices and PCs, allowing users to sync content in real-time, manage file sharing efficiently, view recent photos across devices, and more. Additionally, the overhauled S-Capture feature now allows for annotations during screen recording, supports multiple audio tracks, and includes a control panel for microphone volume and system sound recordings.
Availability
Funtouch OS 15 will be available for an upgrade starting in mid-October on vivo X Fold3 Pro, X100 Series and iQOO 12.
