Leaving behind Google and Samsung, Android 15 update is coming first to Vivo and iQOO phones

Before Google and Samsung, Vivo allowed its phone users to use the Android 15 operating system. In fact, several of the company's flagship smartphones have already received the Android 15-based Funtouch OS 15 update. Although the official launch date of this custom skin is scheduled for tomorrow i.e. September 30. But before that some lucky Vivo phone users got the new OS based update.

Vivo phones get Android 15 update before Google and Samsung

Google and Samsung used to be the first to deliver new Android updates to their Pixel and Galaxy devices. But this time this custom has changed. Because the Pixel 9 series hasn't received the Android 15 update yet. It is rumored that the new update for the series will be rolled out in mid-October

Meanwhile, it is still not clear when Samsung will bring the One UI update based on Android 15. Current reports suggest that some Samsung phones will receive the new OS-based update by the end of October. As a result, Vivo did the task of delivering Android 15 update to the device before Samsung and Google.

These Vivo phones will get Android 15 based Funtouch OS 15 update first

While some Vivo phones received the new update without announcement, the company confirmed that the Vivo X100 series, Vivo X Fold 3 Pro and iQOO 12 will be the first to roll out the Android 15-based FunTouch OS 15 update.

Features of Funtouch OS 15

According to Vivo, Vivo X100 series, Vivo X Fold 3 Pro and iQOO 12 phone users will soon get many new features of FuntouchOS 15 in addition to Android 15. This will include an AI-powered eraser tool in the Gallery app, which will likely work similar to Google Photos' Magic Eraser feature. In addition, photo editors will be given the facility to remove shadows and backgrounds from images.

Funtouch OS 15 custom skin will also have live transcribe feature which will transcribe what is spoken on the phone on the screen. This will be a great feature for those with hearing problems.
