Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Two years ago, OriginOS was officially born, many years of Funtouch OS withdrew from the historical stage, OriginOS adhering to the "original design, design for the original" concept, from the UI to the desktop system and even the concept of interaction has ushered in earth-shaking changes, making up the last deficiency of vivo.

A year ago, OriginOS Ocean released, as the 2.0 version of OriginOS, Ocean brought a new lock screen system, atomic Walkman, atomic reading, atomic privacy system, atomic notes and a series of groundbreaking designs, new visual and interactive experience, so that OriginOS has become a powerful experience backing vivo. When people mention vivo mobile phones, the OriginOS system is the same as the image of vivo.

In a twinkling of an eye, vivo OriginOS has reached stage 3.0. At the vivo developer conference on November 8, OriginOS 3 was officially released. The primary feature of OriginOS 3 is its silky, light, long-lasting and smooth system experience, such as "unfair scheduling", which solves the stutter problem caused by insufficient resources in the foreground in a multitasking environment. For example, the in-situ resurrection mechanism can ensure that background applications can quickly return to the previous state when they are launched. The addition of a number of new features such as upgraded super windows, focus mode, sidebar and other new features will also make it easier for users to use on a daily basis.

At present, CTOnews.com has successfully upgraded the vivo X80 Pro to OriginOS 3 (version 13.1.9.4). Needless to say, it is now a hot experience report.

First, fluency experience this time the OriginOS 3 system emphasizes the "fluency" experience, and "fluency" is a very subjective experience, so this time, vivo adds another key word before the word "fluency"-lasting.

What is lasting? In my opinion, an app can be called persistent and smooth after it has been stored in the background for one night and can still be opened the next day. For example, when a lot of App is opened at the same time and the video is switched back to the video App from the background, the video still maintains the current progress bar, which can be called lasting and smooth; for example, dozens of App are hung in the background, but the App of the foreground can still run smoothly, which can also be called persistent and smooth.

So how does OriginOS 3 do it?

First of all, it is "unfair scheduling".

The so-called "unfair scheduling", vivo officials also give a specific explanation: each process can equally use computing resources, which is called fair scheduling mode. However, in the mobile application scenario, the foreground application priority of the user should be higher than the background application, but it will always be preempted, disturbed and blocked by the background application. For this reason, vivo rewrites the original fair scheduling algorithm into an unfair scheduling algorithm.

To put it simply, it is to schedule different resources for different applications, so that users can always maintain a smooth experience when using mobile phones. For example, when the mobile phone carries out high concurrency scenarios such as multitasking and games, keep the foreground application monopolizing resources to solve the stutter problem caused by the lack of foreground resources in the multitasking environment.

In this part, we verify it directly through the test method officially given by vivo: when Arena of Valor plays the game, he opens a small window to watch Douyin at the same time, and compares the game's frame stabilization effect with the previous generation of products.

The test phone is vivo X80 Pro (Snapdragon 8 focus OriginOS 3 system). Through the following 6-minute test, you can see that the first three minutes of normal game test, and the second three minutes of the game to open the Douyin window to brush short video, when the frame rate of "Arena of Valor" is not affected in any way, the frame rate fluctuation is still a straight line, maintained at 90 frames.

Through the scheduling of the four cores, we can see that when we open Douyin, the state of the four A510 cores is obviously more radical, in order to ensure a smoother experience of the game.

Vivo X80 Pro (Snapdragon 8penny OriginOS 3 system) Arena of Valor opens the Douyin window during the game. Next, let's take a look at the performance of the comparison model.

Compared to the previous generation of vivo X series mobile phones (equipped with Snapdragon 888, the system is OriginOS Ocean), it is also a 6-minute test scene, the frame rate in the first 3 minutes is very stable, but when you open the Douyin window, while playing the game, while browsing Douyin, the system can not take into account all of it, the game frame rate has obvious fluctuations, and accordingly, the core is obviously hyperactive, but obviously does not help.

Compared with the model (Snapdragon 888 OriginOS Ocean) Arena of Valor opens the Douyin window when playing the game, and the comparison of frame rate and core fluctuations shows that the new OriginOS 3 system can allocate more resources to foreground applications when carrying out high concurrency scenarios such as multitasking and games, so as to ensure a sufficient and smooth experience.

Frame rate fluctuations compared to the second upgrade brought about by the OriginOS 3 system for "fluency", it is "memory fusion + 8G".

More memory means more applications can be kept alive.

In fact, as far as the author's experience is concerned, vivo is not excessive in "killing the backstage". Take the author's actual experience of vivo x60 Pro+ (12GB) as an example, the background survival performance is far better than the author's iPhone 12 mini, and it can even be called excellent. Very often, some applications hang in the background for one day, or even two days, and can still maintain the progress at that time when they are opened again, which surprised the author very much.

What about the "memory fusion + 8G" performance of the OriginOS 3 system? CTOnews.com tested the ability to reside in the background. During the test, the author first emptied the background applications of vivo X80 Pro, then selected 20 mainstream applications and opened them one by one. After all 20 apps have been launched, go back to the first one and re-open it.

Video presentation:

The video has been accelerated by 3.5x as shown in the video, and after 20 apps are opened, the second round is opened again, and no app is "killed" at this time, still in the same state as it was when it was opened for the first time. It needs to be emphasized that this is still the result of testing in the state of screencap, after all, screencap itself will occupy certain system resources, and it can also be regarded as a relatively harsh test condition.

Therefore, the resident performance of the vivo X80 Pro with OriginOS 3 system is very satisfactory.

The third point of upgrading is the "in-situ resurrection mechanism".

According to official documents, when the application runs out of memory, even if the process is cleaned, the system will record the status of the application before it is cleaned, so that users can quickly return to the previous state and progress when they start again.

According to the official test method, the author also carried out a simple test.

First of all, Youku as a test application, normal video playback, and then open 40 App in a row, in this case, the vast majority of mobile phone backstage has "killed" Youku.

Open 40 App, and then switch back to Youku, at this time, Youku still retained the progress of watching movies at that time.

CTOnews.com tested WPS notes again. After opening 40 App models in a row, he returned to "WPS" again, and the test page was still retained.

Finally, the "Tomato Free novel" was tested, and the same operation was switched back, and the reading page was still retained.

As far as the actual experience of CTOnews.com is concerned, the current system version of "resurrection mechanism in place" is not aimed at all App, and the success rate of App like Youku, Douyin and Tencent Video is still quite high. Take Youku as an example, after switching to the backend, opening 40 App and switching back to Youku, there is a certain probability that the application will restart (you need to wait for the home page advertisement), and immediately enter the browsing interface at that time. This proves that the application has indeed experienced a "resurrection" process.

However, there are also applications, such as Taobao and JD.com, where the probability of "resurrection" is not high.

In addition to the above three tricks, OriginOS 3 also brings "48 months of Anti-Aging", mainly for mobile phone health, file system defragmentation and anti-aging model upgrades, and received a five-star certificate from Tyre Labs for lasting fluency in the scene. This part can not be shown with test data, but since it has been certified, it must also have a certain strength.

Second, UI design compared with the previous generation of OriginOS Ocean, at first glance, the change of OriginOS 3 is not great, it is still a familiar symbolic language, modern cards, and magazine-style interactive typesetting, whether text or icon information, are presented in a lightweight, intuitive visual way.

For today's young people's aesthetic, it is really difficult to reject this dynamic and modern system.

The new desktop system OriginOS 3 has ushered in new upgrades in atomic components, including time components, health components, and weather components with new templates and visual styles.

For example, the time component brings two new sets of personalized designs, which are better suited to the desktop layout and intuitive visual design, so that users can see the current time information at a glance:

The same is true of four different styles of time components, weather components and health components, such as small-size weather components, weather-related information and data are merged into a 2x2 "window", the data display is more natural:

Weather component (cloudy day)

Weather component (light rain)

Weather components (cloudy) different weather components, when the weather changes, such as rain, cloudy days, cloudy days, these cards will show the corresponding 3D weather dynamic effects.

The health component adds daily steps, activity distance and heat consumption, which can directly present the information on the system desktop and take into account the sense of beauty at the same time.

Different styles of health components, especially the "noise" component, click the microphone button on the upper right side to measure the noise of the current environment and display it on the card in a dynamic manner.

This is one of the core advantages of "atomic components"-the most intuitive way to make information accessible, while achieving "zero-level operations" to achieve consistent functional aggregation and core operations on the desktop without entering the App.

Another example is the "to-do" component, which can input the to-do content by voice, which is easy to operate and the effect is intuitive.

In addition to the upgrade of "atomic components", vivo OriginOS 3 also brings two sets of folder systems, including icon component mode and icon mode.

In the icon component mode of 3room3, click the App icon in the folder to open the corresponding application.

In icon component mode, you can put widgets in folders, and similarly, folders can become bigger and smaller, lengthening and shortening.

OriginOS 3 also brings a new set of dynamic wallpaper, which can be accompanied by the action of unlocking the screen, showing the corresponding animation effect, which will form a strong "chirality" in the experience.

Screen unlock dynamic effect display (slow 0.5x) third, interactive experience this time, OriginOS 3 focuses on upgrading the "small window" function, first of all, it provides four ways to open it: ① gesture start; ② background start; ③ sidebar starts; when ④ receives the suspension notice, the drop-down notification can also adjust the window.

Gesture to start the window

The sidebar starts the window super window multitask, which is also the focus of this upgrade:

In the application split-screen state, the app window can be called up, that is, three apps can be opened on one screen at the same time.

The way to open the split screen of the application is also very simple, just like vivo Pad, it can be quickly opened by sliding three fingers up.

The third application is called up in the form of an application window under the split screen, followed by a video purity window.

In the past, video windows often have upper and lower "white edges", which will waste a certain amount of screen space. The video purity window removes the upper and lower white space to maximize the video content.

As shown in the following figure, after selecting a movie in vivo I video App, click the small screen button in the lower right corner, and the video can be suspended in the form of a small window, and there is no upper and lower white edge, and double fingers kneading, you can switch the size of the video window.

Finally, the game horizontal screen small window.

For gamers, this application scenario is too extensive and very important.

For example, when you want to play mobile games in your spare time, you find that you need hot updates, such as Moba games, which have a certain waiting time after death, which is undoubtedly quite "excruciating" for players. And with the game horizontal screen window, you can completely turn the game into a "horizontal screen window", and then you can do what you have to do, and wait until the game reopens, click to enter the full screen to play.

The game horizontal screen small window can change the size, drag and drop to change the position at will, or hide to the sidebar again, for example, the game "card off", at this time you can search for the game tutorial, and then open the "game horizontal screen small window". Pass this tutorial Or, for example, in the race against the clock in qualifying, your clingy girlfriend suddenly has a "message bombardment". You have to reply to the message, but you don't want to switch backstage frequently during the game and become "cheating teammates". At this time, you just need to switch the game to the "horizontal screen window" and chat with your girlfriend while playing.

You can't do two things at one time, but you can do two things with one machine.

The sidebar mentioned above has also ushered in a new revision on OriginOS 3-with emphasis on upgrading the scene recognition function. For example, when you swipe a short video App, the sidebar will be marked at the top, which will provide the function of listening to songs and knowing music; if you are marking the sidebar under the reading scene, the top will provide the function of "automatically play the screen text".

Finally, there are seven focus scenes brought by OriginOS 3, similar to the "focus mode" on iPhone, where you can set different levels of focus for each focus scene, or block partial notifications, different volume, or automatically turn on a certain mode at a specific time, and so on.

7 focus scenes, including do not disturb, work, sleep, exercise, personal, reading, meditation, and can be deleted at will except the do not disturb mode.

The function is very powerful, but this design seems to be somewhat familiar.

Among these modes, the most interesting is the "meditation mode", in which, except for repeated calls and emergency calls, the rest of the phone calls, notifications, alarm clocks, schedules, etc., are no longer reminded and cannot use any functions. "put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha", but it is not as "mandatory" as the "meditation" mode, because in "meditation" mode, you can press the button at the bottom at any time to exit.

If you want to shut out all the troubles, then this function is very suitable for you, for the impetuous author himself, using it a few more times may make the mood more peaceful.

The focus mode of OriginOS 3 can also be synchronized to Wechat status. The mode of operation is also very simple. When focus mode is opened, the notification center will display the entry for sharing Wechat status. After clicking, you can quickly share your current status to Wechat, which is very practical and can let outsiders know your current status.

Written in the end: compared with OriginOS Ocean a year ago, OriginOS 3 does not do much "addition" in UI design, but mainly focuses on the internal upgrade around the word "fluency". This upgrade change is undoubtedly quite huge, and the excitement of its experience, with the deepening of use, makes people more and more "unable to extricate themselves", this may be the charm of OriginOS.

All in all, this is a system worthy of upgrading and expected by vivo mobile phone users. If you are fed up with the trouble of "killing the background" frequently, you might as well try OriginOS 3, which is sure to surprise you.
