Vivo has officially launched its OriginOS 6 in communist china on fri, alongside the young BlueOS 3 for smartwatches. The modish mechanical man 16-based operating system will first debut on the Vivo X300 Pro, Vivo X300, and iQOO 15 smartphones, before rolling out to older models in the coming months. The update introduces a redesigned interface and a host of AI-driven tools, including Live Photo AI Removal and AI Voice Prompts
A Fresh Design Inspired by Apple’s Liquid Glass
The new OriginOS 6 brings a refreshed user interface that revamps the home page, lock screen, and apps. A dynamic and resizable clock widget adjusts automatically when notifications appear, while circular app icons and curved-edge widgets give the layout a modern aesthetic. The interface reportedly draws inspiration from Apple’s Liquid Glass design in iOS 26.
Among the notable additions is the “Atomic Island” (translated from Chinese), similar to Apple’s Dynamic Island, allowing quick access to controls like music playback and stopwatch operations. The update also introduces progressive blur effects, stacked notifications, and a new control centre with customisable quick settings.
Blue River Smooth Engine for Lag-Free Performance
Under the hood, Vivo has integrated its new Blue River Smooth Engine, featuring super-core computing, dual-rendering architecture, and photonic storage. These technologies aim to deliver smoother animations, improved touch responsiveness, and greater frame rate stability when switching between apps or screens. Vivo claims this engine significantly reduces lag, ensuring a more fluid experience.
Advanced AI Tools for Everyday Use
The update brings a suite of AI capabilities across Vivo and iQOO devices. These include a new AI phone assistant, AI summary generation, AI photo elimination, and Circle to Search 2.0 — an upgraded feature that allows users to highlight an object on-screen and instantly fetch related information.
The highlight feature, Live Photo AI Removal, enables users to erase unwanted elements not only from still photos but also from Live Photos, providing greater flexibility in image editing. Additionally, an AI image editor can enhance resolution, remove objects, and convert images into PDFs.
BlueOS 3 for Smartwatches Brings Extended Battery Life
Alongside OriginOS 6, Vivo also introduced BlueOS 3 for its smartwatch lineup. The operating system will debut on the Vivo Watch 5 and iQOO Watch 5 (Wi-Fi and Cellular variants) starting November 3, as part of a public beta. Vivo claims the Vivo Watch GT 2 could deliver up to 33 days of battery life under BlueOS 3. The smartwatch platform also features new always-on display watch faces, enhanced animations, personalised app suggestions, and Blue Heart V calling support.
