The manufacturer of smartphones popular in India - the company Xolo – is working on its own graphical interface. In a few days the interface based on Android HIVE will see the light of day, and the first phone, at which it occurs is called Xolo Play 8X-1000.
Xolo Play 8X-1000 is a 5-inch, low-cost model, equipped with a HD screen and 2 GB of RAM. The phone does not stand out too much against the competitors, but in its case the hardware is not important, but the software which supports it. HIVE UI debuting in it was based on the currently fashionable flat style. Icons and graphics solutions are characterized by a fairly simple and austere styling in soft colours. Application icons are serialized automatically by type, installation time, or just alphabetically. Naturally, it will be also possible to rank them independently by the user.

In addition, the interface will have special widgets of a music player, a dialer and an SMS box. There will also be introduced a tool for rapid purification of RAM. Along with the new interface Xolo will also launch a platform for application developers, called Connect. It will allow not only to create easier applications which fit to HIVE interface, but it will also be a forum for sharing information, ideas and solutions for developers.
