vivo has officially announced the OriginOS 6 global launch date, confirming that its next-generation mobile operating system will debut on October 15, 2025, at the ‘Brave New Origin: 2025 vivo OriginOS Global Launch Event’ in Shanghai. The update follows recent teasers and is expected to bring a smoother, smarter experience, replacing Funtouch OS in global markets.
A smarter and smoother experience
OriginOS 6 is designed to deliver a smoother and smarter mobile experience. This matches the company’s core focus on user-centered innovation. The OS will launch a new design idea, “Comfort Engineering,” which aims to make the interface more natural and easy to use daily.
China launch precedes global rollout
Before the global launch, vivo will first unveil OriginOS 6 at the vivo Developer Conference on October 10, 2025, in China. This mirrors previous rollouts where Chinese users received an early preview before the international release.
Key features of OriginOS 6
vivo has teased several new features and design enhancements for OriginOS 6, including:
- Revamped Lock Screen: Customization is enhanced with transparent design elements. The digital clock uses real-time rendering to adapt to natural light and shadows, creating a three-dimensional effect.
- Transparent Color Palette: Slight differences in transparency make natural drop shadows, so lock screen images blend seamlessly with the user interface.
- AI Enhancements: The upgraded AI eraser tool now works on Live Photos, letting users remove unwanted objects or people more efficiently.
- AI Lighting Effects: Improved adaptive lighting adjustments for photos and UI elements.
- Shake-to-Group Sharing: Expanding on the existing “touch-to-share” feature, users can now create a sharing group by simply shaking their device.

vivo will launch its new smartphone system, OriginOS 6, globally on October 15. This major update includes better looks, new AI, and easy-to-use features to make the mobile experience smoother and smarter. You can also register to test the software early starting September 29.
