Xiaomi has started seeding its new HyperOS to compatible devices in the global markets. However, the rollout is slow with only the Xiaomi 13 Pro and 13T Pro receiving the update in the Indian and European regions. The company’s sub-brand launched the POCO X6 Pro 5G and M6 Pro 4G with HyperOS pre-installed. Now, in a surprising development, a budget Redmi smartphone is reportedly getting the HyperOS update. 

Redmi 13C receiving HyperOS 

A user on the X (formerly Twitter) platform shared a screenshot of the Redmi 12C receiving the HyperOS update. This is quite surprising since a budget device is getting the update ahead of other phones in Xiaomi’s portfolio. The brand has also not officially confirmed about the matter. It’s worth noting that the update may be rolling out in a phased manner and it should take time to arrive on all devices. It is also recommended to download it over WiFi as the file size is large. 

The HyperOS update on the Redmi 12C (Amazon) has firmware version 1.0.2.0.UCVINXM. It weighs 4GB in size. The newest update also brings the January 2024 security patch. The changelog reveals same information as the HyperOS update on the Xiaomi 13 phones that was released earlier this month. It comes with new animations for more intuitive interactions. The weather app is now redesigned for a more sensory experience. The update brings streamlined notifications focussing on important information. There is a new system font supporting multiple writing systems. 

The HyperOS has more features that can be checked here in detail, It is lightweight in size and relies on Linux and Xiaomi’s self-developed Vela system. The Xiaomi Pad 6 is already confirmed to receive the new OS later this month.
