Xiaomi’s HyperOS 3 was one of the company’s biggest software updates to date, introducing a refreshed UI, deeper AI integration, and revamped system features across phones, tablets, and beyond. Now, with HyperOS 3.1 rolling out in phases, Xiaomi is refining that experience with enhanced usability, performance improvements, and smarter integration both within its own ecosystem and with third-party devices. But what exactly has changed, and which devices will get the new version? Here’s a clear comparison between the HyperOS 3.1 and HyperOS 3 and the full list of eligible Xiaomi devices.
1. What HyperOS 3 Originally Brought
The Chinese tech giant’s HyperOS 3 custom skin was based on the Android 16 OS. It introduced the Apple Dynamic Island inspired HyperIsland, which is an interactive notification, live activity interface that makes it easier to glance at music, calls, charging status, and more without leaving your current screen. The update also focused heavily on AI-powered tools, from writing tools to transcription.
All of this was wrapped in a cleaner user experience, smoother animations, and improved multitasking support. Devices with HyperOS 3 saw smoother performance, deeper cross-device connectivity, and an overall more refined Android experience compared to prior versions of MIUI and earlier HyperOS builds. The rollout has been staggered across models, with 95% of eligible devices having received this update already.
2. What’s New in HyperOS 3.1
HyperOS 3.1 isn’t a total overhaul, but it brings several meaningful refinements and quality-of-life improvements. This includes features like:
- Super OTA – One of the biggest highlights is Super OTA, which is a next-gen update mechanism that applies system updates faster and more smoothly with minimal reboot time and fewer errors. This addresses one of Android’s longstanding update pain points, which is the long, intrusive update installs.
- Smarter UI and Refinements – HyperOS 3.1 improves on core UI elements with smoother animations, refreshed system apps (like Gallery and Weather), expanded lock screen customisation, and more interactive elements in HyperIsland for a more polished experience.
- Better Ecosystem & Third-Party Support – HyperOS 3.1 improves cross platform features too by adding native Apple AirPods support, enabling quick pop-up pairing and access to spatial audio on compatible earbuds. It also improves interoperability with other devices, making Xiaomi’s ecosystem more flexible.
- Accessibility & Quick Gestures – New accessibility options have been reorganised for easier access, and select models gain quick gesture controls that make navigation and shortcuts more accessible.
- Performance & Stability Updates – Under the hood, memory management improvements, smoother app launches, reduced frame stutters, and UI polish make day-to-day use feel more responsive compared to HyperOS 3.
