KDE Plasma 6.5 Review – Faster Startup, New Day/Night Themes & HDR Updates!
Today we’re taking a look at KDE Plasma 6.5 running on CatchyOS — and there’s a lot to talk about!
In this quick hands-on review, I dive into some of the newest features in KDE Plasma 6.5, including:
Rounded corners across the UI
Day/Night theme switching based on location or custom times
Dynamic wallpapers that match your light or dark theme
Updated HDR tone mapping for supported displays
Improvements (and issues) in color management under Wayland
Faster boot and login times via SDDM
While color management still needs some work under Wayland, Plasma 6.5 continues to improve performance and flexibility — especially if you love customizing your desktop.
Let me know in the comments what features or tests you’d like me to try next!
