What to expect from HyperOS 3?

The latest upgrade introduces Xiaomi Super Island, which works similarly to Apple’s Dynamic Island, but with its own set of unique features and capabilities, including support for up to three islands, small window multitasking, and the ability to drag and drop content from Super Island to supported apps.

HyperOS 3 also brings new icons with more vivid color palettes, rounded corners, and a polished look. The status bar has also been redesigned, featuring new icons and smoother animations. Additionally, the update brings a glimpse of a liquid glass design to the launcher’s search bar and settings menu, giving them a premium look. The new Gallery app supports auto-sorting albums, pet face recognition, and photo organization.

The lock screen customization is now easier and more enjoyable with new options, including AI-generated dynamic wallpapers, various clock styles, fresh wallpapers, and new fonts. There’s a new centralized lock screen editing interface, making it easier than ever to personalize your lock screen.

HyperOS 3 also brings numerous under-the-hood improvements, improving energy efficiency by up to 10% and reducing CPU load by 4%. It also offers 21% faster app launch and 10% power reduction for video playback.

For gamers, there’s 15% improved frame rates and a 9% reduction in touch response latency. Furthermore, HyperOS 3 optimizes over 100 system animations, offering a more fluid and responsive software experience.

Xiaomi has also made an effort to bridge ecosystem gaps, as HyperOS 3 allows Apple users to run Android apps seamlessly on macOS (up to three mobile app windows), unlock their Xiaomi phones using Touch ID, share files, and sync notifications. Privacy and security also improve with two-factor authentication login, enhanced data protection, and better control over app permissions. HyperOS 3 users will also be able to locate their lost devices even if they are powered off.
