MIUI Beta 5 is Coming Soon; Promises Dramatic Re-Imagining of Android

Last month we reported about the amazing MIUI ROM for Android that really takes the OS to a whole new level. MIUI gives your device a unique look and adds functionality that some say goes way beyond Sense UI, TouchWiz or Motoblur.

To recap, here are a few features you get with a rooted device and MIUI:

  • 60 FPS system animations versus 17 FPS on the stock ROM on a Nexus One
  • Built-in integrated, system-wide theme support
  • Folders can now be placed in the main launcher bar
  • Individual folders now have the option to sort by your custom order, frequency of use, and by name
  • Pinch to zoom out to the home-screen overviews
  • Super pretty music player with visualization, lockscreen integration, and lyrics support
  • Most beautiful weather widget and app with new weather effects including sandstorms and hail
  • SMS theme support
  • Built in CPU power management
  • Expanded power controls in the notification bar

While the previous ROMs were available primarily only in Chinese, Beta 5 offers support for 11 languages as well as compatibility for a greater number of devices. To find out if your phone is supported, and how to port to your device, head over to the MIUI developer forums.
