It's been quite the rollercoaster ride.

Unfortunately, yes they don't support all the languages but they're definitely improving.

It used to be only Chinese and English in the past so I'm hopeful about it.

    One more thing to note is that Vivo has done great job recently by adding features like Android Auto + more languages into their ultra models despite releasing it in Mainland China only.

    I have x90pp and it has come a long way since it was released and I still get updates with long logs. I'm really impressed with software support.

    I hope they'll integrate their apps for international use better.

    Theme section shows in Chinese. I can find free ones but it's difficult to deal with it.

    Same goes to cloud.

    Same goes to AI tool (Blue Copilot). It's working in English but not up to Gemini level.

    I'm planning to switch to x200u finally this year. I skipped last year due to that too much curved display.

    I honestly don't like quad curved either. Okay it looks nice, feels nice but durability s..., repairability s... if you brake it.

    If it's not curved, it's easy to replace top layer glass if the panel is still working. But with curved glass, 3rd party repair shops hesitate doing it. So, they always change fully display panel which is waste of material imho.

    Also it's still hard to put fully tempered glass on these quad curved displays as well. Only with UV glue methodology you can put a tempered glass but application is hard. Other so called tempered glasses either sticks on the edges or has a hole in fingerprint area as they don't allow fingerprint register that completely blocks using ultrasonic reader. Either a foil or hydrogel ones are the easy options which don't do much protection when screen gets an impact.

    Dear smartphones industry, move towards the durability. Enough with your fancy devices which ends up in case where back glass is covered, even cameras are covered.

      Its okay, no need to sully this with fun touch OS.

So FunTouchOS is the reason why I choosed S25 Ultra instead of X200 Pro while switching from iPhone. Amazing cameras are great, but you interact with the OS the most. And what are great cameras with garbage OS skin.

          🥲😢

            This has been on weibo since last year.

              I'd not go with global version due to Funtouch os and possible price increase/specs downgrades.

              However, more options are always better for the customers.

              I was happy after seeing the previous news but now idk what to say...

                  Even if X200 Ultra comes out of China, no one will buy thanks to Funtouch OS. If only Origin OS was available for every market then and only then people would be interested.
