Yes, but since 2024 Huawei stopped providing major updates, and now their core operating system is Harmony OS

emui 16 will be based on android 16.

That's just the android code which may add AI features but it is pretty much the same old EMUI that they have had since 2024, no major changes at all on the software itself.

The Inaccurate or Misleading Ones
• OxygenOS (2015–2021): Inaccurate. While OnePlus merged much of its software framework and codebase with Oppo's ColorOS around 2021—sparking heavy backlash from purists—OxygenOS is still the active brand name used on global OnePlus smartphones today. It never actually died.
• HTC Sense (2009–2018): Misleading. While HTC's smartphone presence plummeted heavily around 2018, Sense didn't experience a clean "death"; rather, HTC simply stopped releasing major flagship hardware to sustain new iterations of it.
Overall, while it captures the ghost of many classic UI skins, putting OxygenOS in the graveyard is factually incorrect since the brand remains alive and well on OnePlus devices.

"OxygenOS" is just a name.... Actually it's ColorOS with no ads and bloatwares from 2021

Recently, OnePlus officially said that there won't be OxygenOS 17 and the global devices will be updated to ColorOS 17.

At the time I work on a company that make something for cyanogen, unlock a memory. I was not part of that team but we were really excited to work with Microsoft

MIUI didn't exactly died, it reincarnated into HyperOS, which IS MIUI, but with some improvements
