Cyanogen
however has come out defending its partnership in India and has even
confirmed that Yu's upcoming flagship, Yutopia, will be running Cyanogen
OS 12.1.
Cyanogen in a statement to Android Police regarding the partnership with Yu said, "We have a
great partnership with Yu, and happy to announce that Cyanogen OS 12.1
will be powering Yu's upcoming flagship - Yutopia."
The company also confirmed that the Cyanogen OS 12.1 update will be rolling out to Yu Yureka and Yureka Plus smartphones soon.
Explaining
the usage of stock Android instead of Cyanogen OS on the two
smartphones from Yu, Cyanogen said, "It doesn't always makes sense for
us to support every device in a partner's portfolio, and there are
one-off model variations. We want to put the unfounded rumours to rest."
Recently,
Yu Televentures' Founder Rahul Sharma on a Twitter confirmed the name for the upcoming flagship, Yu Yutopia, and referred to it as
the "most powerful phone on the planet".
To recall, Cyanogen back
in April parted ways with OnePlus after months of rough weather in their
relationship. At that time, Cyanogen suggested that it was looking to
work with new Chinese vendors to make its commercial custom Android ROM
for OEMs - Cyanogen OS - reach more consumers.
