Before Pixel 9, these smartphones of Vivo got the new Android 15 update, quickly check the name of your phone in the list.

Tech News Desk –Good news for users waiting for Android 15. Vivo has become the first brand to bring Android 15 to users, leaving Google and Samsung behind. Vivo is rolling out the custom skin Funtouch OS 15 to its select flagship phones. Although the official launch is scheduled for September 30, some lucky Vivo users are already experiencing Android 15.

Vivo rolls out Android 15 update
Although Google and Samsung have always been at the forefront in providing Android updates to their Pixel and Galaxy devices, the matter has changed this time. For example, the Pixel 9 series is still waiting for its Android 15 update, which is expected to roll out in mid-October. Samsung's update schedule is still not revealed, but it is clear that both Google and Samsung are lagging behind Vivo at the moment.

Update is coming first in these Vivo phones
Now you might be wondering which Vivo smartphones will get access to Android 15 soon? So let us tell you that the update is currently being released for Vivo X100 series, Vivo X Fold 3 Pro and iQOO 12. Apart from Android 15, FuntouchOS 15 has brought many new features for these users. These include an AI powered eraser tool in the Gallery app, which is probably similar to Google Photo's Magic Eraser. There is also a shadow removal tool for photo editing enthusiasts. Additionally, Funtouch OS 15 also includes a Live Transcribe feature that displays the words on your phone exactly as they are spoken.

This is an accessibility add-on for people who have hearing problems. Android 15 also has some unique features, like Private Space to manage personal apps (this function is already offered by Vivo) and partial screen sharing. However, the biggest thing is that Vivo is at the forefront in the update race. This is perhaps the first time an Android update has arrived on a non-Pixel device before reaching Google's flagship lineup. Of course, it's still early days, and we'll have to see if Vivo can maintain this lead in future update cycles.
