And the double tap thing happens on every phone tbh i feel it on my S22 Ultra on occasion as well.

jiyen235, 02 Jan 2025wdym they're slow? and are you talking about funtouch os?you need to wait for the animation to stop, and then you can switch to silent mode
sound mode - vibrate mode - silent mode
there's animation between this mode and you can't skip that (like you push the mode twice)
yes I mean Funtouch OS
as for the double tap to sleep, when you quickly double tap the screen, sometimes it just miss the first tap, and you need to do that again (the double tap)

Can you unlock bootloader on vivo devices?
I only buy phones that are rootable. This is not by preference but by principle.

Anonymous, 02 Jan 2025Origin OS is indeed smoother and faster than FuntouchOS but... morei wouldn't call origin os faster. Animations are either smooth or fast. You can't have both. iPhone's animations are smooth, and some other manufacturers have fast animations. When you have fast animations the animation tends to look a lot less smoother. Oneplus/Oppo struck a perfect balance with their software, the animations are REALLY smooth and pretty dang fast and you can even change the animation speed in the settings or with performance mode. lovely stuff.

Plus, the drop down menu of FuntouchOS is really ugly for an Android device even uglier than Infinix's XOS.

I... moreHyperOS undoubtedly looks far more modern and has better/smoother animations but afaik i haven't heard anyone complain about Funtouch OS's bugs and stuff. All i've seen is people complaining about it not looking as smooth as Origin OS (VERY valid) and the OS looking pretty bland/old compared to Origin OS (also valid but less serious than the earlier complaint. And some people also complained about some customization features but i haven't really heard of any OriginOS feature that isn't in Funtouch OS now apart from Chinese AI ig lol

The Android Freak, 01 Jan 2025Poco F7 and Poco F7 Ultra will have better sales than iQOO ... moreF7? sure, that phone's cheaper and comes with a year old flagship chip so the main competitor for that phone is the Oneplus 13R. But the F7 Pro? yeah right, with Xiaomi's terrible battery and well known midrange software issues, unless someone needs ONLY performance for gaming, the IQOO's better. Xiaomi's come a long way but has started pricing their phones higher and now they clash with Vivo who generally have better software/updates imo.

The Android Freak, 01 Jan 2025I will prefer One Plus 13R/OnePlus 13 over iQOO 13 any day ... moreOneplus 13R? with it's 1/1.56" main cam and 8 MP UW cam (Oneplus Ace 5 specs)? Fanboyism.
The Oneplus 13 is the one that's better than the IQOO 13 but then you also have to factor in price. If I had the choice i'd take a Vivo Ultra or the Oppo Ultra any day but at these different price points, different phones cater to different needs.

I strongly agree with this list but there is something missing, the IQOO neo series, why wasn't it mentioned in this list? IQOO neo phones are good (in everything but when it comes to cameras it might on Vivo V40 level but other than that they are not bad)
