vivo Introduces OriginOS 7: A Smartly Smooth Way to Multitask, Connect and Make It Your Own

OriginOS 7 brings a smartly smooth, delightful experience, flexible multitasking with Origin Workbench, seamless cross-ecosystem flow, and Jovi as your personal AI agent.

vivo introduced OriginOS 7 in Shanghai, setting a new benchmark for a smartly smooth experience, engineered across touch response, fluid motion, and peak load performance, and built to stay smooth even after six years of daily use. These performance enhancements are brought to life through Origin Workbench, redefining the multitasking experience on a smartphone. OriginOS 7 further elevates the user experience with effortless native connectivity across devices, alongside Jovi, a powerful personal AI agent designed to help users get things done across devices. Its cohesive design language combines varied material textures, light and shadow aesthetics, and physics driven motion with deep customisation options, making every interaction feel intuitive and distinctly personalised. In Malaysia, the X500 Series will be the first to launch with OriginOS 7, with the update subsequently rolling out to other X Series models, followed later by the V and Y Series.



OriginOS 7 was designed for the moments that shape how people use their phones, like moving an idea between apps, finding a document while away from your desk, or trying to share dozens of photos with family and friends after a gathering. The goal was to make these interactions feel effortless and ensure this smooth experience would last for years of daily use.

Smarter and Smoother, Engineered for Peak Productivity

OriginOS 7 comes with the next-generation Origin Smooth Engine, a comprehensive architectural redesign for graphics computation, memory management, and system scheduling. Ultra-Core Computing dynamically allocates processing resources where demand is highest, keeping the system fully responsive during the most demanding scenarios, such as gaming, heavy multitasking, and extended video sessions. The result is a 10% reduction in app cold start time and an 11% improvement in app page switching, keeping every interaction instant and every transition fluid. Memory Fusion goes deeper, rebuilding the kernel file system and memory management architecture from the ground up to make memory allocation and reclamation dramatically more efficient. This translates to 60% greater memory reclamation and up to 25 GB of additional storage freed on a 256 GB device, giving the system consistent room to perform at its best. Completing the foundation, Dual Rendering introduces an entirely new rendering pipeline and compilation framework, lifting rendering efficiency by 14.4% to power richer visuals and demonstrably smoother animations across the interface[1].

This engineering foundation powers Origin Workbench, a true gamechanger for multitasking on a classic smartphone form factor. Users can seamlessly coordinate up to five active applications within a unified task space, such as exporting high-resolution footage while cross-referencing notes, discovering inspiration, and conversing in real time.

To ensure this effortless fluidity endures across the device’s entire lifecycle, OriginOS 7 adopts a holistic approach with a new memory allocation and reclamation strategy, targeted optimisation for high-frequency scenarios, ageing management across the board, and reduced system fragmentation. The entire experience has been validated against stricter ageing-model standards than ever before and proven in vivo labs with a 72-month anti-ageing test, ensuring that the crisp, immediate responsiveness experienced on day one remains unchanged after six years[2] of daily use.

A More Natural Flow from Touch to Transition with Origin Animation

Motion in OriginOS 7 is engineered to feel as tangible and organic as the physical world. Through Origin Animation, every swipe, tap, and transition follows natural physics principles.

Fluid Motion[3] introduces liquid-inspired dynamics that allow interface elements to stretch, bounce, and merge organically as they track the speed and direction of every finger. Complementing this, Spring Animation applies a unified physics profile across the entire system, from components and apps to in-page elements, creating an intuitive sense of momentum that mirrors natural tactile feedback, while Seamless Interaction[4] makes scrolling in any direction completely seamless.

Effortless Continuity, Bridging the Devices You Already Love

Recognising that modern digital lives naturally span multiple platforms, OriginOS 7 breaks down traditional barriers with native, thoughtful cross-ecosystem connectivity[5] designed around total convenience.

For users invested in surrounding accessories, OriginOS 7 integrates seamlessly into their existing routines. Apple Watch[6] pairs naturally to display notifications while syncing essential workout and health data straight into the Origin Health app. AirPods[7] connect instantly with rich battery telemetry in Origin Island and support for Spatial Audio.

Through vivo Office Kit, iPad, Mac or Windows users can hand off creative tasks, synchronise notes in real time and drag files directly across screens. Essential memories stored in iCloud[8] are accessible natively within the vivo File Manager, allowing photos and files to be browsed, uploaded, and downloaded without leaving the system.

A Personal AI Agent to Help You Get Things Done Across Devices

OriginOS 7 introduces Jovi, your cross-device personal agent that proactively manages complex workflows between mobile and desktop environments.

Deeply integrated through vivo Office Kit, Jovi coordinates tasks across connected phones and PCs. A single command on the go, such as retrieving a project spreadsheet from a home computer, summarising key figures, and delivering the takeaways directly to the handset, is executed autonomously. Users can also configure scheduled tasks, allowing Jovi to compile weekly reports or organise files at specified intervals automatically.

For everyday productivity, Snap Note[9] uses intelligent structural recognition to transform photos of whiteboards, handwritten notes, or presentation slides into editable, formatted rich-text documents with a single capture.

Because powerful intelligence demands equal responsibility, Jovi PC establishes a comprehensive chain of trust. With Jovi Security[10], every autonomous action an agent takes is explicitly recorded, fully transparent, and subject to direct user authorisation for key steps.

A More Personal Feel, with Every Interaction

The visual language of OriginOS 7 extends to deeply personal, tactile expression on the lock and home screens.

Wiggle Theme transforms personal photos into interactive liquid surfaces that ripple, compress, and rebound to the touch, while Glint Theme uses gyroscope sensing to cast realistic light and shadow across wallpapers as the device tilts, evoking the tactile charm of collectible holographic cards[11]. With StickIt[12], users can build layered, dynamic collage compositions from photos and live photos across their lock screen, home screen and the Always-On Display. Home screens come alive with Pet Pals[13], interactive companion themes that respond dynamically to device motion, charging states, music playback, and the progression of day into night.
