Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.0 Released With Support For Notches & Rounded Corners

Following last month's beta release, Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.0 is now available as the latest feature release for this Ubuntu 24.04 LTS derived mobile operating system for select smartphones and tablets. Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.0 brings support for the Zinwa Q25 smartphone while also being available for other devices so far like the Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1, F(x)tec Pro1X, Fairphone 4, Fairphone 5, JingPad A1, Lenovo Tab M10 HD 2nd Gen WiFi / LTE, OnePlus Nord N10 5G, OnePlus Nord N100, Rabbit R1, Sony Xperia X, Volla Phone, Volla Phone X, Volla Phone 22, Volla Phone X23, Volla Phone Quintus, Volla Phone Plinius, Xiaomi Poco X3 / X3 NFC, Xiaomi Redmi 9 and 9 Prime, and Xiaomi Redmi Note 9. This updated Ubuntu Touch release brings a big Chromium engine update for its Morph web browser base now relying on Chromium 134 rather than the dated Chromium 87. Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.0 can now also handle smartphones with "notches" and rounded corners on the display. A long overdue improvement for modern smartphones that have notches around the front camera area or similar. Another user-facing change coming with Ubuntu Touch 24.04-2.0 is having a screenshot editor for the Lomiri shell. Plus improved mobile data connection reliability, user data encryption is no longer experimental for devices supporting FSCRYPT v2, new emojis, and other general bug fixes. More details on this new release can be found via UBports.com. Ubuntu Touch developers continue making progress toward their next major milestone of ultimately re-basing atop the current Ubuntu 26.04 LTS base.
