Alternative Android OS developer Cyanogen has quietly launched a new series of short videos on its YouTube channel to demonstrate the key advantages of its operating system over Google’s Android. The features that will be highlighted in the series focus on the extensive customization compared to Google’s Android, such as an “App Themer” engine that allows individual apps to feature a custom theme instead of being stuck with a default theme that may make an app hard to read or use.

Cyanogen is currently preparing for the US launch of the Alcatel One Touch Hero 2+ later this quarter, which will be the first phone in the US to ship with Cyanogen and full Google Mobile Services certification for compatibility with Google apps and services. The phone will be sold unlocked for $299.99 direct from Alcatel’s online storefront.
