If you like your Google to have the natural taste of Jelly Bean (or Key Lime Pie) then a recent update on the official Oppo Facebook page will certainly interest you.
After years of fan complaints and suggestions, Android phone manufacturers are finally giving in to give what users really want, a nice clean vanilla install of Android without all those skins and fancy icons cluttering everything up.
The tread started with the Samsung Galaxy S4 Google Edition which basically brings the Nexus experience to a non Nexus phone, and China’s Oppo could be next!

Well if there can be a Samsung GS4 & a HTC One Google Edition, then there certainly can be an Oppo Find 5 Google Edition as well 🙂
The Xiaomi Mi2s. Every other ‘Google Edition’ phone this year has a 5.0″ screen. So a 4.3″ screen would be most welcome.
There is actually an official Vanilla ROM. I might give it a go sometime this week.
Where did you find that?!
I’ll have to find the exact place I saw it but I guess one of these sites should have it http://en.miui.com/download.html
Out of interest, where does the term Vanilla come from ?
I think you have to look at is as “no added flavors”
Many people think of ‘Vanilla’ as plain, or without additives so they tend to call a pure Android experience a ‘Vanilla’ install.
Yes!
And maybe the Find 7 Google Edition too!
Find 7 will be so awesome…
I would piss/ or shit thyself
If Oppo launch with vanilla stock for now will they update next version by themselves or it user can directly update its os in future?
