Much-Anticipated Zorin OS 16 is Available for Beta Testing With A Stunning New Look
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Zorin OS 16 was one of my picks for [distributions to look out for in 2021][1]. They always do something interesting with every major upgrade, and it looks like Zorin OS 16 is going to be an exciting release to talk about.
|
||||
|
||||
The Zorin team [announced][2] the availability of Zorin OS 16 (based on **Ubuntu 20.04 LTS**) beta along with all the new features that come with it.
|
||||
|
||||
Here, I will mention the highlights of the new release along with a video tour (with the download link at the bottom).
|
||||
|
||||
### Zorin OS 16 Beta: What’s New?
|
||||
|
||||
Zorin OS always tries to make the UX cleaner and attractive while improving the performance, let us see what Zorin OS 16 is all about. Here’s a short video tour to see it in action:
|
||||
|
||||
Now, let me highlight the key changes:
|
||||
|
||||
#### User Interface Refresh
|
||||
|
||||
![][3]
|
||||
|
||||
The most exciting part of this release is the UI overhaul that gives it an impressive look.
|
||||
|
||||
Zorin OS 15 was already a [gorgeous Linux distribution][4]. And with Zorin OS 16, they have refreshed the user interface to look nicer and cleaner.
|
||||
|
||||
It looks like we might have a good-looking alternative to Deepin Linux after all.
|
||||
|
||||
The animations and the theme have been polished to look cleaner. Especially, with the new default background, it blends in pretty nice. In fact, it is a dynamic wallpaper that changes based on the time of the day.
|
||||
|
||||
Also, the lock screen now displays your wallpaper blurred.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Flathub Included
|
||||
|
||||
The adoption of [Flatpak][5] is increasing every day. Now, Zorin OS 16 enables the Flathub repository by default.
|
||||
|
||||
So, you can easily find Flatpak apps right from the Software store.
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, you also have Snap store enabled by default. Hence, the software store presents you a range of catalogs.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Improved Welcome Tour
|
||||
|
||||
![][6]
|
||||
|
||||
This is quite common for every distribution to include. However, this time Zorin OS has updated the tour to guide the user through the basics along with customization options.
|
||||
|
||||
This is definitely going to be very helpful for a newbie.
|
||||
|
||||
#### New Touchpad Gestures
|
||||
|
||||
Even though I stick to my desktop, for users with Laptops the new touchpad gestures should help you navigate quickly between workspaces and activity overview.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Addition of a Sound Recorder App
|
||||
|
||||
The new sound recorder app is a minimal and beautiful app to let you record audio/speech.
|
||||
|
||||
Having an audio recorder out of the box is a plus, not many distributions offer it.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Customization Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
![][7]
|
||||
|
||||
Zorin OS 15 was moderately customizable. With Zorin OS 16, you get enhanced customization options for the taskbar and the overall layout of the system.
|
||||
|
||||
You can set the panel’s transparency, display it on multiple monitors, auto-hide, and more. For the appearance, you can now select an icon theme, change the app theme, fonts, and more.
|
||||
|
||||
The options look much cleaner and easier to find.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Windows 10X-like Desktop Layout Planned
|
||||
|
||||
![][8]
|
||||
|
||||
They plan to introduce a Windows 10X-like desktop layout for users with comfortable with touchpad, touchscreens, and mice. This isn’t included with the beta, but it is expected arrive before the final release.
|
||||
|
||||
Zorin OS was already a good choice as a [Windows-like distribution][9].
|
||||
|
||||
#### Other Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
There are several under-the-hood tweaks that would contribute to a better user experience. Some of them include:
|
||||
|
||||
* A new jelly animation effect when moving windows and minimizing it
|
||||
* Fractional scaling support for high-res displays
|
||||
* Improved Fingerprint reader support
|
||||
* Unread icons
|
||||
* Refresh settings app
|
||||
* Disabled built-in tracking and telemetry in Firefox
|
||||
* Linux Kernel 5.8
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Try Zorin OS 16 (Beta)
|
||||
|
||||
You get the Zorin OS 16 beta ISO from the download button below. It is worth noting that it may not be wise to use it on a production system while it is meant for beta testing.
|
||||
|
||||
As mentioned in their announcement post, other editions of Zorin OS 16 – such as Lite, Education, and Ultimate – will be available over the coming months.
