For some reason, I really enjoy hearing you say "Hey everybody. I hope you guys are all being safe". It's a lovely way to consistently greet your viewers. 🙂

They really should release OriginOS in more countries, it seems way better than FuntouchOS

The interactive widgets are really great! The level of customization and animation is crazy good👍. OriginOS should definitely get a more global release. Thank you for the showcase Ben. Very Nice! 👏

I live in the UK and I have orgin os on the vivo x60 pro plus (I bought the Chinese version) It's by far the best UI I've used by a longshot it has the best of Iphone and other android UI's all together in one Os definitely the best experience I've had on a phone. Living in the UK there isn't much restrictions on the customization so you're not missing out on much, there are widgets for non stock apps that are customizable (like Gmail, Whatsapp, Spotify, PayPal ect.) which is cool. My advice is if you want the best experience it's worth picking up the Chinese version if it works in your country.

Ben did a fantastic showcase of originOS which is quite far & few by other reviewers. Pls do more of such review as it help audiences like us to make an educated decision whether to buy Chinese phone with their original OS rather than a international OS that might not get frequent updates. BIG👍to Ben for the good work!!

So they took some design from IOS and the usability of OneUI and just made it better. Nice job Vivo.

This is why I always import my Vivo phones from China rather than buying the global versions, despite me living in the USA. Origin OS 3 is so nice on my Vivo X Note!!

I guess if you can read Chinese it's OK. What bothers me about Origin OS is it breaks many Google features, like OK Google, Android Auto, find my phone and finicky notifications overall.

I remember when OriginOS was first announced, I was excited with seemingly unlimited features. And after a while, deep sigh that it is limited to China only. Do you think it will reach international one day with it?

Here are my pro and cons that no youtuber will tell you for vivo x90 pro+ after using it for 1 week and coming from a p40 pro, can't go back to huawei because of google services. Cons: -there are still chinese menu here and there but can be avoided -to enable find my device i had to use a china vpn and on their website it finds the phone but doesn't display it on the map,i can install google find my device but that doesn't work after reboot(before the unlock) unlike vivo native find my phone and it doesn't automatically enable location as vivo find my phone does also if you remotely erase it with vivo app or google app, the phone is good to go for the theif, activation lock kicks in only if you hard reset it via recovery mode which sucks. On huawei you could even locate the phone even after remotely wiping it and you still couldn't boot it without a huawei account.| the function to keep the screen turned on when looking on it definitely works better than on a samsung, is usuable but huawei knew if you look at the screen even if your face was partially pointed at the screen, vivo screen just stays on even if you are not looking as long as long as it can detect your face. -don't like that on ultra power saving mode fingerprint is disabled, not everybody uses a 4 digit pin, huawei left the fp enabled but is a feature i use very rarely. -the privacy password fingerprint should be disabled after reboot same as it does for the main screen lock, it's useless to have a complicated password if you can access your encrypted apps just by fingerprint, they need to step up their game like samsung secure folder or huawei private space which is more complete. -I can't set alexa as default voice assistant, is some annoying jovi crap everywhere and i heard android auto doesn't work either but don't have where to test this. -HRD on video works only on 30fps on both 4k and 1080p but only on the main cam, should have worked on all sensors and 60fps too. -In 60fps recording mode you can't switch between sensors while recording, only in 30fps. -I was so excited about how complex the native photo editor was just to find out soon after that the image is ruined by the ultra compression making it just 600 kb, what's the point of bragging about 1 inch sensor if your own photo editor ruins the photo? Is not stored online, i really see no point of compressing it. Pros: I think is the best replacement for my huawei, I was worried i had to go back to samsung but nop, is clearly ahead and i would say is on pair with huawei if you mix all the pro and cons toghether. -HDR for the video main cam at 30fps, i compared it with my p40 pro and s22 ultra, their video hdr is almost inexistent. -Even the secondary sensors are pretty good, 10x optical on a s22 ultra looks wors than hybrid zoom from vivo and in lower light the difference is even bigger not to mention samsung between zoom ranges is unusable, a lot of youtuber fail to mention that if you zoom at 5-9x on samsung it will look like crap unlike my vivo or mate 50 pro that will look good at any range. -Best HDR photo camera, no other phone cant' compete with its photo HDR and they look natural. -Hands down, best fingerprint reader, large and snappy I love it. -Very good face unlock, I'm not sure how secure it is but strangely it works better even at night unlike p40 pro who had 3d face scan, it lights up the screen to see you better, samsung's face unlock doesn't even work properly on good light, feel like they haven't updated it in over 5 years not to mention samsung's smart stay is unusable, screen turns off while looking straight on it, so annoying. -I didin't had any problems with google, even maps history works(as i heard before it didin't on origin), google pay works etc. -I also enjoy small things like just moving the phone a little the fingerprint scanner lights up (same as huawei does), on samsung you have to blindly put it unless you double tap the screen or raise to wake beforehand. -Highly customizable -Very good speakers, slightly better than samsung's and much better than my p40 pro. Brighter screen than my old huawei too. -I like the design but I just ordered 3 cases from aliexpress, the one that comes with it, although good looking is very slippery, already dropped my phone 2 times from my pocket and doesn't have side protections. Overall i'm really happy with my purchase and if huawei can't bring back google, my next phone will most likely still be a vivo

Great review, Ben! It's nice to learn about the way brands that don't sell in the US do stuff. Hope the ones that do sell learn from this.

I was with you until you brought up OneUI.. For me its the best. Its colorful yet its so classy and feels like it means business but again at the same time is very eye pleasing. I like how iOS looks but I don't like its app management on homescreen and the lack of app drawer..and again, I prefer OneUI's look over ios..I can have those same interactive widgets after the OneUI 5 update, Onehanded+ is available on OneUI as well. It has good lock that is the pinnacle of customisation! Nothing comes close and I have got those same functions for split screen as well as floating windows..I use taskbar a lot as well and link to windows or smart view is just awesome not to mention samsung notes..And the ai eraser function works better in samsung along with the ability to remaster however they are better than what you get on vivo, I still use APIs for that.. Don't get me wrong, origin OS is great but saying OneUI is not that lively is weird..you can customize it however you want..you can say its far better than colorOS or even stock android that I don't like but I keep samsung at the top. If it wasn't for OneUI or stylus, I would have switched to vivo when they had launched X70 pro+..(oh yeah I can only get funtouch OS but even Origin OS is not on the same level as OneUI for those who don't care about using lipstick on their friends) Regardless atleast they are making awesome software..need this globally..

I'm not a fan of the look but the features are pretty cool. I just ordered my Vivo X90 Pro Plus and can't wait. Big upgrade from my OnePlus 8 Pro!

I absolutely LOVE this phone. It's my first ever high spec phones. I can play demanding games no problem and everything I could ever want in a phone. I'm a loyal fan of Vivo, Xiaomi, Pocco, and Huawei. They're such good phones for lesser prices but with high specs

The OriginOS widgets are insane when compared to FuntouchOS. Hopefully Vivo will release it globally soon in later future updates. People will buy more globally if they'll release OriginOs globally!

No way! Totally didn't expect the pro plus to launch globally. All indications were that it wasn't.

Eagerly waiting for Ben's review of OnePlus 11. 👍

That's dope ! Got my vivo x90 pro plus some days ago, cant wait to have it on hands.😍😎

I really love my IQOO Neo7 SE with the OriginOS 3!

Xiaomi had similar features on global ROM for like 2 years now. But this is much improved.

Enjoying your content! Cheers from the Netherlands 😃

The OS and UI of this phone is INSANE

An incredible phone gets even better

Happy New Years Ben to you & you're family .Great revise as always very informative thanks alot 🇬🇺💯💝

This looks great, unfortunately those widgets will never get any third-party app support, at least from outside China.

Great video as per the norm just waiting to see which uk supplier we get hopefully 👏😎

Thanks man great video, mine come in 7 days, can't wait anymore

Those features are pretty cool honestly.

i got this phone too.... that is really crazy. Portrait photography is crazy good

finally got my vivo x90 pro plus here in Canada... yes no Android Auto nor Google Assistant. But I really like Origin OS. It's so customizable in terms of folders, nanokits, app and folder shapes, etc. I really like it.... don't even need Nova Launcher.

Shame we lose out on a lot of customisation in Europe, but it's a minor issue for me. I will be buying this phone on day for for the cameras alone, and can finally retire my Huawei P30 pro

This is much better than funtouch os. This should be released worldwide

Hopefully, you can get your hands on the Yoga Book 9i when it becomes available on June 2023

Since Vivo is not releasing the pro plus globally i import it. Love the editing features and cant wait to play around with them

Day by day originos has been improved

Hi Ben, where can I get the wallpaper you using on the Vivo?

OriginOS is so good. I can really consider using it aside from one ui, pixel ui.

Fantastic phone... Nice observe Origin os but too much high frequencies when you speak, its " hurts the ear". Need use something make it softer pls

Too bad Origin is China only. Would've been cool to have some feature on Origin to FunTouch.

Cool video Ben! How many software updates does this phone will have?

As usual all the good stuff is always for China market

It's much better than FuntouchOS.(I love OriginOS.)

😘😘👍👍

I must admit there is lot of fun and cool customization options but there is one downside. Some of this features you need to download, and od you dont knows chinese you won't go far with that, for some you need to pay, or at least have chinese phone number what make it useless outside of "mainland". However X70Pro is still great phone ,but you have that feeling that you missing something good

Nice love the widgets functions

I do prefer Oxygen OS. My dream is that phone running OOS

I wonder if releasing a phone with two different skins doesn't make it harder to push out updates. It seems like it would. Personally everything I've seen OriginOS is the better skin and I wish they would release it globally

OMG a 1 Schilling coin!!! Awwww memories :) A.E.I.O.U.

When I receive a notification the lock screen light up.. so the aod effects(dynamic effects) are not being showed.. how the hell can I switch this off? I rly can't find it

look forward to the oneplus 11 review. maybe even make a comparison between oneplus 11 and find x5pro because their prices are almost the same now. it's weird you don't often see people complaining about snapdragon 8gen1 on youtube but that soc is notorious among Chinese bloggers due to its low power efficiency.

I still prefer one ui

LOVE the OS so much

It's really cool widgets.... But in another points, in China, phone makers is trying make easier to integrated their own os incld widgets works smoothly with certains apps, since they don't have Google play stores. But in Colonizers (BP II Slank) eyes this might seems uneeded and called bloatware. They want so clean. even better maybe without any app installed!? Another this, that editing photos features i really need it!!!! 😆 Is really cool...

Ben, you mention that the pro+ will release globally - was that before it was announced that it will not release in Malaysia and are you still confident it will be part of the global Vivo launch on February 3rd?

All I expect from Vivo is Origin-OS internationally and a selfie sensor that shoots stabilized 4k HDR or at least stabilized FHD 60 HDR 🤞🏽

ok those widgets are handy!

Hi ben, can i know whether if you swipe from top to middle or bottom of the screen, what will it just the notification and shortcut panel or it has two sides? On the left is notification, while on the right is shortcut panel?

Origin os is pretty good but needs nearby share and android auto

Hey Ben, can we swipe left on the home screen for Google feed? Or any news alternative?

Great review Ben! This video pushed me over the edge in getting an x90 Pro Plus in Australia. Getting it shipped from HK 😊

That's pretty cool....why fun touch?

Also love tech but got say You are so handsome

Origin os should be made global only then will I buy vivo phone

Ben You Are Doing Great Stuff

All these phones with China OS skins tend to get better UI and customization than their Global versions. Even Xiaomi CN ROM is much better than the Global ROM. It doesn't matter much if the user lives outside the mainland which is a shame. These CN OEMs will never optimize it well for global markets and it has been this way for many years already.

Waiting for full review

Hi how can i make the phone do app notification. My social app not make notifications.

Other channels saying the pro plus will not lunches globally please can you confirm

Veaary nice, thanks

I was shocked to learn that Vivo decided not to release the x90 pro+ outside China - the only Vivo phone people want! Anyway - it means I need to import from China to the UK. I prefer Origin OS, but is there any downside? ie, is a lot of stuff in Chinese, can I remove bloatware easily etc? thanks!

what wallpaper are you using, I really like it

Only thing I want is Spotify support on Origin Player, it works with Funtouch so hopefully... also only international version or the ones with Funtouch is going to be only India version so... I'll buy CN version any week of the day for the sake of the price and especially for the OS.

can you set up the google news though on the side swipe? thinking of grabbing iqoo 11 bmw cn rom because i really like the looks of origin os compare to our funtouch os lol

Acá en Chile tengo el Vivo X80 Pro con Origin OS y es muy muy completo

Do banking apps work on origin os outside china? Planning to buy from giztop. Thanks

Hello... Do the same video but with the oppo find x6 pro

Hi. Trying to research whether I should get an Origin OS version of the X100 Pro. I can't find much info about whether it will work with Google Pay, or whether the app grid size is customisable.

Is it possible somehow to make Android Auto work on this phone, using it in Europe? In other words, downloading an apk would solve this issue?

too many new things to remember

they should really make it possible for the user to swap between funtouch and origin os whichever they prefer.

LOL, I am just about to order a X90 Pro+ from AliExpress. Like just now because I've checked the 5G bands for use in the US and decided to click on your review before ordering. Should I get the Chinese model or international? I mainly use iOS and live in the US so Messenger, WeChat, WhatsApp, Line notifications are a must

is there any difference in how google app work on origin os and on funtouch os? like does gpay work fully and does chrome natively sync when GMS is installed on origin?

Hi. Could you tell me where to get that wallpaper?

I have it and I have to say I likt this OS but ammount of chinaese is much more that you would expect after setting it in "english" ....

So is FuntouchOS won't bring all OriginOS features someday???? Oh, Vivo, are you crazy? 😢 PS: Adding lipsticks to your buds made me like your video hard hahaha

So can you use Chinese version outside in English..

whats with the canned audio?

I really hope you can do a video dedicated to the details on experiencing the OriginOS on Vivo X90 Pro+, definitely including how to install reliably Google Play Store apk to the phone, especially the issues and warnings after that. Will the Google system get normal notifications of system and apps updates? It's only a one time job? And most people also concern whether push notifications work normally for popular apps such as Whatsapp and Yahoo Messengers. If there is issue, is there a way to solve? Thank you so much in advance!

Jonathon is a male name of Hebrew origin that means "gift of God" or "Yahweh has given". It is a shortened version of the name Jehonathan or yehōnātān. The name comes from the original Hebrew word Yonatan, where yo is short for Jehovah and natan means "he has given".

Still waiting Xiaomi 13 review 🙏

How do you know that the pro+ is going to go global? where is the official information?

Hi. Any issue or restriction in using the China rom version outside China?

Hey Ben! Could you help me about one information in origin OS 3.0? I would like to know if that rom has second space ? Thanks 🙃

Hi Ben. Is samsung watch5 / watch5 pro working with X90 pro plus ?

Can we use messenger and Facebook on this device?

2024 , new funtouch os may be match with old origin os

How do you think OriginOS 3 compars to HarmonyOS 3?

Como utilizar Google Assistente?

Please guide in details to download these features if user must download.

I see that you have installed Chrome. How does google play services work on Origin OS? Thank you in advance for the info.
