The long-awaited HyperOS 3 update has finally begun rolling out to Poco F6 users in India. It arrived with some delay as it was scheduled to receive the HyperOS 3 update alongside the Poco F6 Pro last month. The Poco F6 Pro received the upgrade as per the schedule, and now the base model has also joined the party as well.
The HyperOS 3 update for Poco F6 carries the firmware version 3.0.2.0.WNPINXM. It’s currently available in India as an initial release, but Xiaomi won’t take long to expand the update to more regions. The update has a massive download size of 6.1GB, so it’s best to use a reliable Wi-Fi connection.
If you’re rocking a Poco F6 in India, you should be able to upgrade to HyperOS 3 via the software update section in the Settings app. Since it’s a hefty update package, you must ensure that the device has sufficient storage before downloading the update, and that it’s charged to at least 50% for a smooth upgrade to HyperOS 3.
The Android 16-based HyperOS 3 is a pretty significant upgrade for Xiaomi and Poco devices, bringing a host of useful features and dozens of improvements to deliver a more useful and stable software experience. It introduces HyperIsland, a pill-style dynamic element that lets users monitor live activities without opening the app, with multitasking capabilities.
The lock screen gets new features like AI Cinematic Lock Screen and AI Dynamic Wallpapers to offer dynamic lock screen experience with the ability to generate cinematic wallpapers from your own photos using AI. The company says HyperOS 3 brings 100+ improvements to deliver a faster, smoother software experience. Improvements have also been made to AI-related features, security, and cross-device experience. Overall, HyperOS 3 is a solid upgrade, and there’s plenty to explore once you have it on your device.
