8. Animations & 3rd-party launcher behaviour

Animations are almost perfect.

🟢Moving wallpaper, great blur, good opening/ closing, good QS animations, unlock animation, Dynamic Island animations, etc



3rd Party Launcher Behaviour

🟢Gestures & everything still work fine

❌Broken animations, very stuttery with lots of frame drops

❌Breaks animations of default launcher (Until you change the wallpaper after you switch back to it...yeah, weird)

(9/12)

9. First Party Apps

🟢Gallery has search, is very well organized
🟢Calculator has all the features you need. Clock, Calendar are both good too.
🟢Stock dialler is really good, has call recording too
🟢Notes app has no missing functions

-Weather app is fine, till it kicks you into a Browser for very basic info that should have instead been expanded there

-Settings app is neatly designed, things are easy to find

- X Message is trash, poorly designed & doesn't even have support for RCS

Just switch to Google Messages instead

Camera App

🟢Pro Mode
🟢Dedicated Night Toggle
🟢Document scanner works well

❌'AI' Camera & Gallery- the names are so bad
❌Immature app, cannot even use thumb swipes for navigation, cluttered with AI Slop
❌Very limited settings
❌AI auto video editor tops out at 30FPS

(10/12)

-First party photo editing suite except missing eraser
-Video editor is also fine
-Can crop the subject, and save it to the smart bar
-Screenshot annotation is perfect

-Third video shows what it came up with for the 'Video Vlog' thingy.

🔴Something very annoying in general about this skin, is that the bottom navigation bars for any app (1st party) are not swipable. You *have* to tap on them, can't slide. The camera app missing thumb gestures for operation is another annoyance.

🟢Speaking of updates, it's right now on the July 2025 patch! That's as fast as... uh, the Xiaomi 14 which also went from May to July update (14 still has June patch but whatever)

Summary
🟢Multitasking, (mostly) customization
🟢Feature suite
🟢Animations (mostly)
🟢Battery, RAM optimization

🔴Camera app
🔴Feels heavy to use, quite slow in many places
🔴Missing some AOSP basics, cuts down some features that can be *easily* added
🔴Mixed UI design with no originality
🔴Bad haptic implementation
🔴Some of the worst widgets on any skin
🔴Buggy

Media

1. Third party widget animations (Not totally broken, but not good, very laggy)

2. First party widget animations (Good. If only there were actually some good widgets for this)

Yeah, spacing and all is fine but what's the use.
