What’s interesting, both devices are loaded with the pure and full stock Android OS, ditching their proprietary Vibe UI skin on their previous phones (we do hope other brands will do the same move). Expect a lag-free and bloatware free OS. Both devices also has a Dolby Atmos® audio from the phone’s built-in speaker or regular headphones.

Our @TechPatrl team will be attending the launch on November 7. Stay tuned on our social media accounts to keep you in the loop.
