Vivo V60 launched its new foldable in the country this month and soon we could see its OS experience change in India as per new reports.
For many years, Vivo phones with Funtouch OS have been available in areas like India and others. For its devices in China, the company offers OriginOS. Numerous users have criticized Funtouch and OriginOS for having a harsh user experience, and they have pushed the business to expand the availability of the latter in additional areas.
And after all these years, it appears that Vivo will comply with their requests. According to fresh information obtained this week from a tipster, Vivo may introduce the first phone using OriginOS outside of China with its upcoming model.
OriginOS For India: About Time?
In a post on X this week, tipster Abhishek Yadav revealed the news that Vivo is introducing OriginOS to India. Even more, according to his source, the upcoming version will be built on Android 16 and will debut in the area alongside the Vivo V60 model that has been rumored.
The tipster quickly calms down the excitement around OriginOS’s arrival in India on phones, preferring to wait for the announcement to be confirmed before observing Vivo’s intentions to localize the platform for the nation.
If OriginOS is released in India, Vivo will need to incorporate Google services like the Play Store, which are not present in the Chinese version of the OS. When we have previously questioned Vivo about its intentions to switch Funtouch OS to OriginOS in India, the company has often stated that it is investigating the possibility of doing so without providing us with a specific timeframe.
We anticipate that the teasers and news about the development will become widely known in the coming weeks if Vivo decides to release OriginOS on the market with the V60 model next month. OriginOS running on the company’s flagship foldable, the X Fold 5, and its small phone, the X200 FE, which were introduced to the Indian market earlier this month, will undoubtedly disrupt the game.

Even if Funtouch OS has improved over time, OriginOS’s impact on the business could be much greater, especially since people are already aware of its experience from Chinese films. The majority of our Vivo evaluations have been positive regarding the hardware. We trust the tipster has accurate sources, and we will be closely monitoring these details.
