The company has the OriginOS available for its devices in China. The experience of using Funtouch and OriginOS has been claimed to be stark, and many people have asked the company to bring the latter to more regions with its phones. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">And it seems Vivo is going to oblige to their requests after all these years. New details via a tipster this week suggests Vivo\u2019s next phone launch could be the first to come with OriginOS outside of China.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><strong>OriginOS For India: About Time?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The news about Vivo bringing OriginOS to India has been shared by tipster Abhishek Yadav in a post on X this week. His source has even suggested that the new version will be based on Android 16 and launch with the rumoured Vivo V60 model in the region.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"twtiframe\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">ExclusiveVivo V60 is launching in India on August 19, 2025!The same source also reveals that OriginOS based on Android 16 will debut in India alongside the launch.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Abhishek Yadav (@yabhishekhd) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/yabhishekhd\/status\/1945133201141187048?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow\">July 15, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The tipster is quick to cool down the excitement around OriginOS coming to India on phones as he would rather wait for the news to become official, and then see how Vivo plans to localise the platform for the country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The OriginOS available in China does not have Google Play Store or any other Google services, which Vivo will have to integrate if the OS releases in India. We have previously asked Vivo about its plans to replace Funtouch OS with OriginOS in India and most times the brand has talked about studying the feasibility of making it happen without ever giving us a clear timeline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"6\" class=\"story_para_6\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">If Vivo does bring OriginOS to the market next month with the V60 model, we expect the teasers and news about the development to go mainstream in the next few weeks. The company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/tech\/vivo-x200-fe-and-x-fold-5-with-zeiss-optics-camera-launched-in-india-price-specs-9439316.html\">launched its X Fold 5 flagship foldable and the X200 FE compact phone<\/a> in the Indian market earlier this month, and having OriginOS running on them will surely be a game changer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"7\" class=\"story_para_7\"><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Most of our Vivo reviews have said good things about the hardware, and even though Funtouch OS has gotten better over the years, the impact of OriginOS for the company could be much higher, especially when people already know about its experience through videos from China. We\u2019ll be keeping a close eye on these details and hope the tipster has got his sources spot on. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"authorimg\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/2023\/11\/aadeetya-3-2023-11-9de48efa65a9ed8ed13a8932cadb6d5a.jpg?impolicy=website&amp;width=0&amp;height=0\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/s-aadeetya-21044.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">S Aadeetya<\/a><\/p>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>S Aadeetya, Special Correspondent at News18 Tech, accidentally got into journalism 10 years ago, and since then, has been part of established media houses covering the latest trends in technology and helping fr&#8230;<!-- --> <span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd aurpdebtn\">Read More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jsx-e71bd712c195739a jsx-768097607 artcta\"><span data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">News18 Tech delivers the latest technology updates, including phone launches, gadget reviews, AI advancements, and more.
