UBports has released Ubuntu Touch OTA 2.0, a significant update based on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, which includes the upgraded Chromium 134 engine for better web compatibility and added support for new devices like the Zinwa Q25. The update introduces features such as notch avoidance, Widevine DRM support, and a screenshot editor, while also improving mobile data stability and user data encryption. Users will need to follow a mandatory two-step migration process to install the update, which is now available for twenty-one supported devices, including Fairphone and Xiaomi models.
