Whats new in the Awaken OS? 

Phone will boot with beautiful boot animation of Awaken os.

Stock wallpepar of Awaken os looks cool.

If we check about phone in the setting.

Obviously we are upgraded to android 12 through 2.4 aurora version of Aweken os.

Security patch is also updated to 5th Feb 2022.Roms comes without Primus kernel it's 4.9.227. Build date is 26 Feb 2022.

Customizations features:

So let's check unique custom features as compare to pixel experience.

So finally we got face unlock in this rom.setting up and using face unlock is super easy and very fast.

As this is intial build under setting we didn't get any seperate customisation tab.

But lots of custom features available in display setting , in the  lockscreen tab we gets instant unlock for face unlock or swipable option to unlock.

Seperate tab to disable ripple effect after unlock.

Double tap to check phone or wake phone available and it's working good.

Ambient music ticker on AOD , MEDIA ART and music visulsizer available here you can see all the customisation working and they looks very nice.

Dark theme tab available with scheduling option  which is preety old feature but instead of that,We gets app drawer icon shape setting like pebble, square, teardrop etc.

Bunch of headline or body fonts available specially OnePlus slate and OnePlus sans looks good.

Icon pack is another tab there we gets bunch of system icon shapes for statusbar,quick setting and system setting.

Monet themeing  available by using this we can disable wallpepar based theming instead of that we can set accent colour picker. Seperate colour fullness ess and brightness sliders available to set different values . All these settings helps to give amazing look to system.

In the display customisation tab we gets battery styles,battery percentage, clock style,AM/PM styles, seconds and date customisation.

Ambient edge lighting available but it is not working.

 Rom didn't comes with any audio mod but in the quick setting we gets audio mod tile which has mono and stereo switch actually it's working and giving different audio depth.

Rom has wallpepar and style app with the themed icon and it's working very good.

 Rom has  OTA updater but now it's not fully working causing some force close.

 Google pixel devices free unlimited storage is available in the Google photo app.

Inside settings and apps we gets Google assistant dedicated tab from there we can quickly access hey Google activation, hold power button to access assistant.

Google assistant working perfectly and can be accessible through lockscreen.

Instead of that we gets game mode tab similar to last pixel video you can check that in right side card.

 Rom is passing safety net by default I used YASNSC app from playstore so  all banking app will work on this rom.

But still widevine is showing security level L3 so we can not watch  Netflix in full hd.

 So these are some unique customisation but still we will get new build soon where developers claimed that they are adding more features with proper custom tab like syberia os 

what's working:

 Wifi and wifi network are working no issues regarding 5hz WiFi networks.

 Bluetooth is working and I tested it with my OPPO echo M31 even high definition LDAC is working good.

Autobrighness  is working without any issues.

Stable volte incoming and outgoing calls are working.

NFC is working well. 

Auto rotation  and sound in video are working without any issues. 

Alert slider is working and there is custom setting available to customize the slider position inside system tab.

Camera app not available in the rom similar to PE rom so I used open camera and both picture and video recording is working still I have given OnePlus camera app and Google cam in the video description and both are working good.

Bugs:

No OTG support

Sometime low in all volume in voIP calls(calls via whatsapp, Google duo etc) 

Performance Test:

So let's see performance rom is very good interns of performance on single core I got 503 similar to average results on the multi-core it's given 2028 close to average results. If we keeps aside these results rom is very good real life performer.

Battery life:

So battery life not tested as I just installed it on the last night but I took 2,3 battery cycles PE rom which is base of this rom, and it's not good as compared to syberia.

4 to 5 hr SOT and 22 to 24 hr stand-by not completing whole day with single battery charge so As I think this rom has same base of PE  it may give same results but still I will report back soon after full test.

So this is full review of the new rom if you want look of pixel experience rom with some addon custom features you can definitely go with the rom.
