The wait for the HyperOS 3 update for Xiaomi 13T users has been painfully long. The official rollout went live in October 2025, starting with premium models, and by March 2026, it had already been released for most of the eligible devices, but the Xiaomi 13T wasn’t lucky. The wait has finally come to an end, as the device has just started to pick up the stable HyperOS 3 update, which brings Xiaomi HyperIsland, major system refinements, upgraded visuals, and a new security patch, alongside plenty of other changes.

It should be noted that the HyperOS 3 update rolling out to Xiaomi 13T is based on the latest Android 16 OS. It’s currently rolling out in Indonesia with the firmware version OS3.0.1.0.WMFIDXM, as reported by XimiTime. Users in other regions should expect to receive the update in the coming days.

HyperOS 3 is a major upgrade for Xiaomi devices, and so is the update package size. For the Xiaomi 13T, the update package weighs about 6.5 GB. It’s better to download such substantial packages over a stable Wi-Fi connection. Also, ensure that your Xiaomi device is charged to at least 40% before installing the update. To check for available updates, go to Settings > About phone, then tap the HyperOS logo at the top.

After upgrading to HyperOS 3, you’ll have access to the Xiaomi HyperIsland feature, a dedicated pill-style hub at the top of the screen that lets you see and interact with multiple live activities. It offers smooth integration with system features and extends support to third-party apps, including WhatsApp, YouTube, and Spotify.

The latest update introduces an AI Cinematic Lock Screen and AI Dynamic Wallpapers for deeper lock screen customizations, while also bringing smoother lock-screen transitions, like AOD to lock screen to home screen. Furthermore, HyperOS 3 tightens integration with Apple devices to support the “Touch to share” feature and allow users to run Xiaomi phone apps on an iPad. The update also introduces a suite of AI features, such as AI Writing, AI Speech Recognition, AI Search, and AI Translate.

While it’s good to see the HyperOS 3 update finally rolling out to Xiaomi 13T, it’s important to know why Xiaomi delayed it in the first place.

Why did Xiaomi delay the HyperOS 3 release for Xiaomi 13T?

Xiaomi took longer than expected to release the HyperOS 3 update for Xiaomi 13T because it was reportedly testing a new Android 16 kernel for the device. The update rolling out to Xiaomi 13T has the kernel version 6.12.38-android16.

A kernel upgrade directly impacts performance scheduling, memory handling, graphics rendering, battery consumption, hardware compatibility, and app compatibility, and so it requires deeper testing before it’s released to the public. This likely explains why Xiaomi took so long to release the update for Xiaomi 13T.

While HyperOS 3 continues to roll out to more devices, Xiaomi has already started working on HyperOS 4. The next major upgrade, based on Android 17, is expected to bring major visual upgrades and several exciting new features. We’ve prepared a list of devices eligible for the next major upgrade. Review it on this page to find out if yours is included.

The post Xiaomi finally rolls out HyperOS 3 (Android 16) update to Xiaomi 13T appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi says goodbye to the Xiaomi 12 and Xiaomi 12 Pro as the devices have received their final HyperOS upgrade this month. The phones reached end-of-life (EOL) status in January 2026, meaning they won’t receive any updates, including security patches.

While it may be surprising to see the HyperOS 3 update rolling out to the Xiaomi 12 and Xiaomi 12 Pro after reaching end-of-life status, the update actually resolves issues introduced by the initial HyperOS 3 rollout, such as occasional app crashes and memory management inconsistencies.

The latest HyperOS update for the Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro resolves previous issues, ensuring the devices remain stable and reliable for daily use. Here’s the firmware version of the final HyperOS 3 update for the affected Xiaomi devices:

Xiaomi 12 Pro

• Indonesia: OS3.0.3.0.VLBIDXM
• Russia: OS3.0.2.0.VLBRUXM
• Turkey: OS3.0.2.0.VLBTRXM
• Taiwan: OS3.0.2.0.VLBTWXM
• India: OS3.0.2.0.VLBINXM

Xiaomi 12

• Indonesia: OS3.0.2.0.VLCIDXM
• Russia: OS3.0.3.0.VLCRUXM
• Turkey: OS3.0.2.0.VLCTRXM
• Taiwan: OS3.0.2.0.VLCTWXM

These builds should offer a reliable software experience to Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro users. However, keep in mind that the devices won’t receive any further updates. That means your device will miss out on the latest HyperOS features and security patches.

While the Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro will continue to work just fine, it’s best to upgrade to a newer model. Check out the list of Xiaomi devices offering six years of updates to find one that stays relevant for longer.

Since the devices have already reached end-of-life status, they are unlikely to receive the HyperOS 3.1 update, which is already rolling out to eligible devices. You can read more about it in our HyperOS 3.1 section.

The post Last HyperOS update rolling out for Xiaomi 12 and Xiaomi 12 Pro appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi has begun rolling out the HyperOS 3 update to Xiaomi 13T Pro and Poco F5 users globally. For the Xiaomi 13T Pro, the rollout isn’t new. It originally went live around one and a half months back, but pulled back later due to a critical problem that caused random reboots and bootloops.

HyperOS 3 rolls out (again) for Xiaomi 13T Pro

The new HyperOS 3 build for the Xiaomi 13T Pro should be free from critical bugs, given that Xiaomi has spent a lot of time resolving the problems. Besides HyperOS 3 and Android 16 goodies, the latest build includes the February 2026 security patch, not the latest one.

Here are the firmware versions for the revised HyperOS 3 update for the Xiaomi 13T Pro, as spotted by Xiaomi Time:

• Xiaomi 13T Pro (Global): OS3.0.1.0.WMLMIXM
• Xiaomi 13T Pro (Turkey): OS3.0.1.0.WMLTRXM
• Xiaomi 13T Pro (Taiwan): OS3.0.1.0.WMLTWXM
• Xiaomi 13T Pro (Russia): OS3.0.1.0.WMLRUXM

Poco F5 also joins HyperOS 3 party

Poco F5 has also started picking up the stable HyperOS 3 update. However, this one is based on Android 15, unlike the Xiaomi 13T Pro, which is getting an Android 16 build. That’s because the Poco F5 has already received two Android OS updates, and therefore isn’t eligible for Android 16.

The HyperOS 3 update for the Poco F5 is rolling out globally with the firmware version OS3.0.3.0.VMRMIXM. The update also brings the February 2026 security patch, which fixes dozens of vulnerabilities to make the device safer.

Before you can test HyperOS 3 features on your Poco phone, you’ll need to download an update package weighing around 2GB. It’s best to use a stable Wi-Fi connection to download such hefty update packages. Also, remember to charge your device at least 40% and back up important data before hitting the install button.

The post HyperOS 3 update now rolls out to Xiaomi 13T Pro and Poco F5 appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi has finally begun rolling out the much-awaited HyperOS 3 update to Xiaomi 13 Lite users. This one is based on Android 15 and packs some exciting new features, along with plenty of upgrades throughout the system. Unfortunately, this is the last major HyperOS upgrade for the Xiaomi 13 Lite users.

The smartphone was launched in early 2023 with Android 12 out of the box. It received three Android OS updates since then, now running Android 15, and isn’t eligible for more OS upgrades. That means it will spend the rest of its life running Android 15. According to the official website, the Xiaomi 13 Lite will reach end of life in August 2026.

Coming to the HyperOS 3 update, it’s rolling out to Xiaomi 13 Lite users in multiple regions with the following firmware versions:

• Xiaomi 13 Lite (Global): OS3.0.1.0.VLLMIXM
• Xiaomi 13 Lite (EEA): OS3.0.2.0.VLLEUXM
• Xiaomi 13 Lite (Turkey): OS3.0.1.0.VLLTRXM
• Xiaomi 13 Lite (Taiwan): OS3.0.1.0.VLLTWXM
• Xiaomi 13 Lite (Russia): OS3.0.1.0.VLLRUXM

If you have a Xiaomi 13 Lite, you should be able to upgrade to HyperOS 3 by navigating to Settings > My device and tapping the HyperOS logo at the top. If the update doesn’t appear, check again in a few days, as the rollout happens in batches and can take a few days to reach all the users.

While not as rich as the Android 16-based software, HyperOS 3 with Android 15 still delivers a wide array of useful upgrades throughout the system, along with many visual enhancements and new features. Fortunately, it includes the new Hyper Island, which provides easier access to information with multitasking capabilities.

The update also includes new icons, new battery and signal indicators, enhanced animations, and system-wide blur effects. HyperOS 3 further improves integration with Apple devices by supporting iPhone call/SMS forwarding and screen sharing with a MacBook.

HyperOS 3 also integrates new AI features, including AI writing in notes, AI voice translation and noise reduction for recordings, AI Dynamic Wallpapers, and AI Search and AI photo search in Gallery. The latest update also includes numerous under-the-hood changes to deliver up to 30% better performance.

EOL approaching for Xiaomi 13 Lite

HyperOS 3 is the final major upgrade for the Xiaomi 13 Lite, and it will soon run out of security patches as well. The official website says software support will end in August 2026. By that time, the Xiaomi 13 Lite may receive one or two security updates, but it won’t receive HyperOS 3.1 or HyperOS 4.0.

Even after reaching the end of life (EOL), the Xiaomi 13 Lite will continue to work fine, but it won’t have the fixes for the recently discovered security vulnerabilities, which puts your device at risk, especially if it contains critical data.

It’s best to upgrade to a newer model, which will not only receive the latest security patches but also the latest features and upgrades from HyperOS updates. If you’re wondering about the best upgrade options, this page lists all Xiaomi devices that promise 6 years of software updates.

The post Xiaomi 13 Lite users are receiving their final major HyperOS update appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi has started rolling out the HyperOS 3.0.15.0 update for its flagship Xiaomi 17 Ultra. This 9.4GB update brings various system optimizations, camera upgrades, and security enhancements. The Leica Edition of the device includes an exclusive feature, which we will discuss at the end.

What’s new in this update?

The update improves the camera experience on the Xiaomi 17 Ultra. Xiaomi has added a new front-and-rear dual-view mode, which allows users to record video simultaneously using both cameras. The 200MP mode now includes a standard watermark option.

Xiaomi has optimized Dolby Vision recording, boosting brightness and dynamic range for improved video quality. The update also refines motion photo functionality by enabling it by default during video recording, with the option to switch to static photos in the camera settings.

Xiaomi has made improvements to the system as well. The update enhances the auto-brightness feature in night scenes, creating a better viewing experience in low-light environments. It fixes occasional app launch issues that caused temporary unresponsiveness. The package also includes the February 2026 security patch, which strengthens the device’s protection against vulnerabilities.

The Leica Edition of the Xiaomi 17 Ultra adds a Leica Instant Mode 1× tap-to-zoom feature. While the exact functionality remains unclear, it seems designed for quick, street-style photography, potentially enabling users to switch between focal lengths instantly with a single tap.

Xiaomi is holding an event on February 28, where it will launch several new products globally, including the Xiaomi 17 Ultra smartphone, the Redmi Buds 8 Pro earbuds, UltraThin Magnetic Power Bank 5000 15W, and the Xiaomi Tag tracker. The company will also showcase its latest AIoT products. The event will begin at 2 PM CET in Barcelona.

The post Xiaomi 17 Ultra gets HyperOS 3.0.15.0 update, adds Leica Instant mode appeared first on Gizmochina.

HyperOS 3, based on Android 16, has been rolling out to Xiaomi devices for a few months now. But there’s a version of HyperOS 3 based on Android 15, which will be released for select devices that aren’t eligible for Android 16. This started rolling out in China in December 2025, and now the global rollout has begun, starting with the Xiaomi 12T Pro. The Xiaomi 15 Pro, on the other hand, is receiving a new HyperOS 3.1 beta update.

Android 15-based HyperOS 3 now rolling out globally

It’s good to see Xiaomi pushing the Android 15-based HyperOS 3 update outside China. This will allow more Xiaomi users to access the latest features without upgrading to a newer model. For the Xiaomi 12T Pro, as spotted by Xiaomi Time, the HyperOS 3 update arrives with the firmware version 3.0.1.0.VLFMIXM.

It’s a major upgrade, and therefore, the download size would be a few gigabytes. It’s best to use a stable Wi-Fi connection for the purpose, and charge your battery to at least 40% for a smooth upgrade to HyperOS 3. To check for the latest update, go to Settings > My device and tap the HyperOS logo at the top.

Xiaomi 15 Pro is receiving a new HyperOS 3.1 beta update

If you’re running a HyperOS 3.1 build on your Xiaomi 15 Pro, a new beta update should be waiting for installation. The latest one, tagged with the firmware version 3.0.300.7.WOBCNXM focuses on resolving performance issues to improve the user experience. Don’t expect to see new features or major changes with the latest beta build.

The HyperOS 3.1 beta program is currently limited to China, so the latest beta build for the Xiaomi 15 Pro is also restricted to that region. We’ll let you know when the beta program expands to other regions in our Xiaomi section.

We’ll regularly update you on the latest HyperOS news on this website. Be sure to visit the website regularly for fresh details. Alternatively, you can join our Telegram channel to ensure you don’t miss out on anything.

After a brief slowdown tied to the Chinese New Year holiday, Xiaomi’s HyperOS 3 software rollout has resumed earlier than expected, bringing fresh builds and public releases to a range of devices worldwide. While the initial break was expected to stretch till the next month, the brand has kicked off the latest build for the Xiaomi and other sub-brands’ devices.

Why the Rollout Slowed Down

Like many other tech companies in China, Xiaomi paused new HyperOS 3 releases and internal build compilations to celebrate the Chinese New Year festivities, which traditionally stretch from mid-February to early March. During this time, development teams typically enter a maintenance mode, and new public updates slow down or stop entirely while engineers take the holiday.

However, it now appears that Xiaomi has ended that break early, with new HyperOS 3 builds already rolling out again to eligible devices as of February 21. This marks a quicker return to routine update work than many had expected.

First Wave of Post-Holiday Releases

A variety of Redmi, POCO and Xiaomi devices are already seeing new builds as Xiaomi resumes the rollout:

• Redmi Turbo 5 (China) received OS3.0.11.0.WPJCNXM based on Android 16.
• POCO M6 Plus 5G / Redmi 13 5G / Redmi Note 13R (India) are getting OS3.0.10.0.WNUINXM.
• POCO M6 Pro 4G / Redmi Note 13 Pro 4G builds (Android 16) have also arrived in the global and Russia regions.
• POCO M7 Plus / Redmi 15 (Global) and others saw Android 15/16-based builds.
• POCO C75 5G / Redmi A4 (India) got OS3.0.3.0.WGVINXM with updated UI elements like HyperIsland and redesigned home visuals.

These public releases follow an early holiday-week flurry of activity, including new Recovery ROMs being pushed to users and internal test builds spotted on Xiaomi update trackers.

The post Xiaomi HyperOS 3 Update Rollout Kicks Off Once Again After Holiday Break appeared first on Gizmochina.

As the Year of the Dragon festivities kick off in China, Xiaomi has given its camera app a festive twist with three new limited-time camera watermarks for devices running HyperOS 3. These themed overlays add a holiday vibe to your photos. So let’s check it out.

Xiaomi HyperOS 3 Update Brings Chinese New Year Watermarks

As the Year of the Dragon festivities kick off in China, Xiaomi has given its camera app a festive twist with three new limited-time camera watermarks for devices running HyperOS 3. These themed overlays add a holiday vibe to your photos. But keep in mind, this new addition isn’t permanent. The Chinese tech giant is only offering these special watermarks for a limited time.

These are currently region-exclusive and available in devices running on the latest HyperOS 3 build. The new watermarks lean into traditional Chinese New Year symbolism and are designed to give your snapshots an auspicious feel. There are three new options available, which include:

• Red Koi Fish: A vibrant red koi motif that represents luck, perseverance, and prosperity, with its tail elegantly arched in motion.
• Traditional Lion Dance: A stylized lion dance figure that reflects classic folk customs, embodying celebration and joyful energy.
• Horse + Ruyi Pattern: A horse motif intertwined with the auspicious ruyi pattern, symbolizing good fortune and balance.

Notably, these designs aren’t just static overlays. Xiaomi’s camera product manager notes that they can be customized and tweaked within the camera settings to fit your shots and personal aesthetic. Xiaomi is only making them available from February 10 through March 9. Unfortunately, the Chinese New Year watermarks aren’t currently available on global HyperOS builds and are specific to devices in China.

The post Xiaomi HyperOS 3 Rolls Out 3 New Chinese New Year Watermarks appeared first on Gizmochina.

HyperOS 3 is one of the biggest upgrades to Xiaomi devices to date, bringing loads of new features and improvements across the system. It’s based on Android 16, but on top of that, Xiaomi has introduced several exciting and useful features in HyperOS 3 that make the stock Android feel like a less feature-rich update.

Here are the five HyperOS 3 features that make it better than stock Android.

1. HyperIsland with multitasking capabilities

Android 16 adds Live Updates to show ongoing tasks (delivery, ride, etc.) in the notification area and on the lock screen, but HyperOS 3 goes much further with HyperIsland. Xiaomi’s implementation features a dedicated pill-style hub at the top of the screen with the ability to show multiple live activities at once (up to three), letting users monitor several concurrent tasks simultaneously and interact with each individually.

HyperIsland offers rich inline controls (play/pause, call actions, accept/decline, navigation shortcuts, etc.) and supports gestures like tapping to expand and swiping to switch islands. What’s more interesting is that users can swipe down an island to open the related app into a floating window for instant multitasking. The Live Updates in Android 16 have fewer controls and don’t offer floating-window behavior for islands.

Xiaomi’s HyperIsland also offers better integration with system features and extends support to a wide range of third-party apps like WhatsApp, YouTube, and Spotify. At the same time, Android 16’s Live Updates work best with Google’s own apps and depend heavily on app developers to make the required changes.

2. Cinematic lock screen and AI dynamic wallpapers (with deeper editing)

HyperOS 3.0 focuses on offering a redefining lock-screen experience with new AI-assisted features and deeper customization, while stock Android 16 focuses more on core OS usability than on lock-screen creativity.

The new AI Cinematic Lock Screen feature in HyperOS 3 creates a story-like, cinematic effect each time you unlock, and the AI Dynamic Wallpapers feature transforms your photos into stunning cinematic visuals. HyperOS 3 also features smoother lock-screen transitions, like AOD to lock screen to home screen, making the lock screen feel more premium and lively.

In short, Android 16’s lock screen is clean and functional but less focused on creativity and personalization, but HyperOS 3 explicitly promotes personalized editing. 

3. Much stronger cross-ecosystem features, including Apple integration

HyperOS 3.0 excels at cross-device connectivity, especially with Apple devices, while stock Android 16 mostly focuses on bridging gaps among Android devices.

The “Touch to share” feature on HyperOS 3.0 now works with Apple devices too. So, you can now share photos, videos, files, and Wi-Fi passwords with Apple devices simply by touching both devices. Users can also run Xiaomi phone apps on iPad using the Home Screen+ feature with full support for iPad multitasking. Plus, they can unlock their Xiaomi devices using Touch ID or Face ID.

Apple devices can connect to a Xiaomi hotspot with just one tap. Additionally, users can instantly locate their Xiaomi phones from Apple devices, further strengthening Xiaomi’s cross-ecosystem capabilities.

4. HyperAI for smarter writing, transcription, and translation

HyperOS 3.0 provides a suite of AI features as a part of HyperAI, while stock Android 16 relies on Google apps (Gemini, Translate, Photos, etc.) to deliver the most visible AI features.

The AI Writing feature in HyperOS 3.0 can rewrite text in multiple styles, generate captions for images, and features a “DeepThink mode” for longer content in Notes. The AI Speech Recognition helps reduce background noise, convert speech to text while recording, and generate an instant summary when the recording ends.

HyperAI also offers AI Search to search the web for instant answers, generate AI summaries of search results, and find on-device content quickly, while the AI Translate feature does live interpretation for calls/meetings, bilingual subtitles by transcribing and translating audio, and an offline mode for face-to-face conversation translation.

5. Stronger privacy and security layer

The stock Android 16 features Android Protection, which layers multiple protections, such as Theft Detection Lock, offline device lock, USB protection, and anti-scam safeguards. Many of them are also available on Xiaomi devices running HyperOS 3, but the software also includes several security features developed by Xiaomi that are not present in stock Android 16.

HyperOS 3 offers Quantum-level data protection for protection against future quantum attacks on communications. It also features Edge-to-cloud AI data security, ensuring data stays private with on-device and cloud privacy computing, and MiTEE‑powered security protocols for interconnectivity.

So, HyperOS 3.0, based on Android 16, is a pretty significant upgrade for Xiaomi devices, bringing plenty of additional features and improvements over stock Android 16.

The post 5 HyperOS 3 features that make it better than stock Android appeared first on Gizmochina.

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.

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.

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.

All Devices Eligible for HyperOS 3.1

Here’s a list of all Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO branded smartphones tand tablest that are set to receive the HyperOS 3.1 update.

The post HyperOS 3 Nears 100% Rollout: Full List of Every Device Getting the Update Soon appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi has finally started rolling out the much-awaited HyperOS 3 update for the Xiaomi 14 Civi users, while the regular Xiaomi 14 models received it a month ago. Anyway, the update is finally here for Xiaomi 14 Civi, and it brings loads of exciting stuff, including a bundle of new features and dozens of improvements.

The HyperOS 3 update, based on Android 16, is initially rolling out in India with the firmware version 3.0.4.0.WNJINXM. It’s a massive update package with a download size of about 6.3GB. So, it’s best to download it over a stable Wi-Fi connection.

Since Xiaomi rolls out updates in batches, it may take a few days for all users to receive them. If you’re rocking a Xiaomi 14 Civi, check for available updates manually by navigating to Settings > About phone, then tapping the HyperOS logo. To ensure a smooth upgrade to HyperOS 3, ensure that the device has sufficient space on the internal storage and it’s charged to at least 50%. You can back up important data for added safety.

After upgrading to HyperOS 3.0, you’ll have plenty to explore and play with, including a new HyperIsland, which lets you monitor live activities without opening the app. The updated lock screen now includes AI Cinematic Lock Screen, AI Dynamic Wallpapers, and more new features, allowing greater customization for a more personalized, dynamic lock screen experience.

HyperOS 3 also focuses on AI, with new features such as AI Writing, AI Speech Recognition, AI Search, and AI Translate. The software now features Gemini integration for a more useful software experience. Additionally, Xiaomi has made over 100 improvements to HyperOS 3 to deliver a faster, smoother experience.

The company is also working on HyperOS 3.1, which would still be based on Android 16, and is expected to bring useful upgrades to the software. It has already started recruiting people for the beta program. Unfortunately, the Xiaomi 14 Civi is not on the beta list, but it should receive the update once the stable rollout begins.

The post HyperOS 3 update finally arrives for Xiaomi 14 Civi appeared first on Gizmochina.

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.

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 post Latest HyperOS 3 update brings UI & stability fixes for 11 Xiaomi devices appeared first on Gizmochina.

A new HyperOS 3 update from Xiaomi is reportedly bricking certain devices, especially imported smartphones from the brand that are running unofficial global ROMs. The update has left some models stuck in a bootloop or recovery mode, so here’s what we know and how you can possibly fix it.

Why is HyperOS 3 bricking some phones?

Some Xiaomi phones, particularly those imported from China and sold via gray market channels, are facing booting issues after updating to HyperOS 3. These Chinese smartphones were released unofficially with converted global ROMs. Basically, the update introduces a region lock check that compares the phone’s hardware to its software region. So if the software doesn’t match the hardware’s intended market, the OS fails to boot and traps the device in recovery or a bootloop condition instead of loading normally. Xiaomi considers converted ROMs unauthorised software installs, so the company is not classifying this as a “bug.”

How to Fix a Bricked Phone After the Update

If you’ve already updated and the phone won’t boot past recovery mode, there’s a known workaround that can trigger an automatic rollback to HyperOS 2.2 (the previous official version):

• Force Restart Repeatedly: Keep force-restarting your device roughly 10–15 times in succession. This repeated reboot sequence is key because it prompts the system into an emergency rollback mode, which restores the earlier HyperOS build that’s compatible with your converted ROM. Once this rollback completes, your phone should boot normally again.
• Disable Updates Once Recovered: After your device successfully boots back into HyperOS 2.2, turn off automatic updates in Settings to prevent the phone from attempting to upgrade back to HyperOS 3 again.

Xiaomi has started rolling out a new HyperOS 3 Launcher beta update aimed at refining the system experience. This upgrade brings stability improvements and multitasking fixes, so here are all the eligible devices that are receiving this update.

Xiaomi HyperOS 3 launcher beta update: Everything you need to know

The Chinese tech giant has just released a fresh beta build of the HyperOS 3 launcher. Its latest iteration carries the build version 6.01.05.1949-01122103, which focuses on correcting problems that affected navigation and visuals in the Recent Apps screen. So these are all the big changes:

• Smoother horizontal transitions for stacked cards
• Resolution of fixed app key issues under certain conditions
• Elimination of truncated and overlapping cards when multitasking
• Prevention of unexpected shaking during long presses
• Improved dark-mode button color adaptation
• Fixes for display anomalies when clearing cards or using split-screen modes

These tasks aim to help make switching between apps feel more natural and less glitchy. This also reduces visual inconsistencies that could impact the overall experience.

Eligible Xiaomi and Redmi Smartphones Getting the HyperOS 3 Launch Beta Update

Xiaomi has limited this launcher beta to handsets officially receiving the HyperOS 3 update. So there are only a select number of devices that are getting the improvements:

• Xiaomi 14 series
• Xiaomi 15 series
• Xiaomi 17 series
• Redmi K80 Ultra
• Redmi K90 series
• Redmi Turbo 4 Pro

These devices are either running HyperOS 3 already or are eligible to install the beta version, and the launcher update can also run on the global versions of these smartphones if they are compatible with HyperOS 3. In related news, a bunch of Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO devices are getting an extended 5 years of HyperOS update.

Xiaomi has begun rolling out the HyperOS 3 update to a new set of devices. This HyperOS 3 build is different. It’s based on Android 15, which recently began rolling out to the Redmi K60 and Xiaomi Pad 6 Pro series and is now expanding to more devices, including the Xiaomi 12 series, Xiaomi 12S series, and others.

The HyperOS 3 build, based on Android 15, is currently only available in China. Here are the latest Xiaomi devices that are getting this update, along with the firmware versions (as shared by Xiaomi Time):

• Xiaomi 12: OS3.0.2.0.VLCCNXM
• Xiaomi 12 Pro: OS3.0.2.0.VLBCNXM
• Xiaomi 12S: OS3.0.2.0.VLTCNXM
• Xiaomi 12S Pro: OS3.0.2.0.VLECNXM
• Xiaomi 12S Ultra: OS3.0.2.0.VLACNXM
• Xiaomi Civi 3: OS3.0.1.0.VMICNXM
• Xiaomi MIX Fold 2: OS3.0.1.0.VLRCNXM

The HyperOS 3 update is currently available as a Mi Plot release to these devices, which essentially means a beta release. To receive this update, you must sign up to become a beta tester (click here for all the steps). The update will soon roll out to non-beta users once Xiaomi ensures that the build has no critical bugs.

Xiaomi has not confirmed a global release for the Android 15-based HyperOS 3 upgrade. However, the presence of global models such as Xiaomi 12, Xiaomi 12 Pro, and Xiaomi Civi 3 on the above list gives a positive indication. The brand typically rolls out the update in China first, then expands it to the rest of the world within a few weeks.

We’ll keep posting the latest developments around HyperOS in our Xiaomi section. Remember to visit this section regularly for the latest updates.

The post HyperOS 3 update rolling out to Xiaomi 12, 12S and more devices appeared first on Gizmochina.

If your Android 15-based Xiaomi device has run out of major Android OS upgrades, you still have a chance to experience HyperOS 3 as the brand has just started rolling it out to those devices. The Android 15-based upgrade is currently available to select devices, including the Redmi K60 series and Xiaomi Pad 6 series, as a Mi Pilot Release, with more devices to follow soon.

The HyperOS 3 update, based on Android 15, is currently available only for Chinese models. The Redmi K-series is anyway China-exclusive, although it has been released in other countries under the Poco branding. Additionally, please note that the update is currently available to pilot users and will be released to other users soon. (Here’s how to sign up to become a beta tester.)

Here are the build versions as spotted by Xiaomitime:

• Redmi K60: 3.0.2.0.VMNCNXM
• Redmi K60 Pro: 3.0.3.0.VMKCNXM
• Xiaomi Pad 6 Pro: 3.0.3.0.VMYCNXM
• Xiaomi Pad 6 Pro Max: 3.0.1.0.VMHCNXM

Xiaomi hasn’t announced a rollout schedule for the Android 15-based HyperOS 3 update. Neither has it confirmed which devices are eligible for this upgrade. However, based on previous reports, the update will expand to numerous devices. We’ll regularly update you on the same in our HyperOS 3 section.

How is Android 15-based HyperOS 3 different from Android 16?

The HyperOS 3 upgrade, based on Android 15, will be a slightly downgraded version of the one based on Android 16. Xiaomi hasn’t revealed the differences yet. However, based on reports, the Android 15-based software will also feature HyperIsland. The Android 16 iteration, on the other hand, includes additional UI polish and deeper integration of interactive shortcuts during ongoing activities.

The Android 15-based also implements over 100 improvements across the system, including animations, redesigned home screen icons, enhanced blur effects, and updated battery indicators. However, it lacks some platform-level security models directly integrated into Android 16, such as Identity Check, Advanced Protection Mode, AI-powered Scam Detection, and Private Space.

Still, there are numerous upgrades to the Android 15-based HyperOS 3 update, including performance optimizations, seamless cross-ecosystem integration, and enhanced multitasking capabilities.

Despite several missing upgrades, the HyperOS 3 upgrade, based on Android 15, still brings plenty to look forward to. On top of everything, it’s great to see Xiaomi rolling out a major HyperOS upgrade to devices that have already reached the end of Android OS updates.

The post HyperOS 3 Update Drops on Redmi Note 14 5G in India appeared first on Gizmochina.

With the year end festivities being right around the corner, Xiaomi is planning on celebrating Christmas with a new update to the HyperOS 3. The company just released a fresh set of pictures that showcased a small gesture for the festival in its camera app. So let’s check it out.

New Xiaomi HyperOS 3 Update Brings Christmas Watermark

In a recent post on Weibo (a Chinese microblogging platform), the tech giant shared a series of pictures that carried a unique new watermark. In the Christmas spirit, the watermark on the HyperOS 3 camera app will now let users customize with multiple themes inspired by the festival. There are a total of 3 layouts to pick from, 9 styles, and a bunch of colors and icons to pick from.

This includes a full red watermark, black, white, green, and more. There are even messages that say Merry Christmas, small illustrations of the Christmas Pine Tree, and a bunch of its variations (including a combination of the previous two themes). Xiaomi is also offering the option to directly edit the watermark into the picture via the gallery app’s built in picture editor. It is worth noting that the brand will release the update later this week for devices running on the HyperOS 3 platform.

Unfortunately, there is no official word on this new custom Christmas watermark arriving outside of China. In related news, the company just released HyperOS 3.0.5.0 update that fixes issues related to the camera app’s UI on the Xiaomi 15. Meanwhile, the HyperOS 3 brings a performance boost, but this also brings impacts on emulation gaming.

The post Xiaomi HyperOS 3 Celebrates Christmas With New Watermark Update appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi is dropping a new update for its last year’s flagship phone, bringing a bunch of optimization and fixes to the camera experience. The Xiaomi 15 is receiving the new HyperOS 3.0.5.0 update in China that polishes the brand’s latest Android custom skin. So here are all the details.

Xiaomi 15 HyperOS 3.0.5.0 Update: What’s New & What’s Fixed?

To recall, the Chinese tech giant just recently began rolling out HyperOS 3 to the Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Ultra models in the Indian market. Now, the company is bringing another update to help address some issues faced by the Xiaomi 15 users. The update brings the HyperOS 3.0.5.0 build version that offers various optimizations. This includes dealing with bugs related to certain payment apps in China.

But one of the biggest fixes is with the camera app experience. There were issues related to the UI, in particular, the arrows in the menu that didn’t reset based on the orientation of the phone after returning from the settings. Even some searches for applications installed on the Xiaomi 15 occasionally failed. The update from Xiaomi is a minor software upgrade, so these are incremental changes and fixes and don’t bring any major new update.

In related news, HyperOS 3 brings a boost in system speed, but the update has brought a hit in performance during emulation gaming. This Android 16 OS based update has also started rolling out for the POCO F6 Pro and Redmi Pad 2 4G model. Xiaomi has even released a 14kg washing machine with three drums and HyperOS platform. This is all for now, stick around for more news related to Xiaomi’s HyperOS.

The post Xiaomi 15 Gets Camera Fixes & Optimizations with HyperOS 3.0.5.0 Update appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi has started rolling out HyperOS 3, its latest Android skin based on Android 16, and on paper, it looks like a solid upgrade. The company is pitching a lighter system, smoother animations, and better overall responsiveness across a wide range of phones and tablets.

For many users, that seems to be true. Day-to-day performance reportedly feels snappier, with fewer background slowdowns and a generally smoother experience than previous HyperOS versions.

But for a specific group of users—Android emulation enthusiasts using the Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro—the update hasn’t been entirely smooth.

Shortly after HyperOS 3 began rolling out, posts started appearing on forums like r/EmulationOnAndroid, with users reporting reduced emulation performance after updating. One user of the Pad 6S Pro showed visible flickering and instability that reportedly wasn’t present before. Similar complaints have popped up from owners of other Xiaomi devices as well, suggesting the issue isn’t limited to a single model.

That said, the situation isn’t universal. Some users say their emulated games continue to run just fine on HyperOS 3, hinting that the problem may depend on specific hardware or GPU configurations rather than the update as a whole.

For those affected, a potential fix has emerged — switching to the Turnip v25.3.0 (Revision 5) GPU driver could help reduce the visual glitches. But turnip drivers currently don’t support devices powered by Qualcomm’s newer Snapdragon 8 Elite and newer flagship chips, limiting their usefulness for the recent flagship phones and tablets.

In short, HyperOS 3 appears to be a win for general performance, but it’s not without trade-offs. If emulation is a big part of how you use your Xiaomi device, it might be worth waiting for future updates—or at least checking community feedback for your specific model—before jumping in.

As always, Xiaomi could smooth things out with upcoming patches, but for now, HyperOS 3’s impact on emulation remains hit or miss.

The post POCO Announces HyperOS 3 Release Schedule: Here’s the Rollout Timeline & Eligible Devices appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi’s HyperOS 3 rollout — now tied to Android 16 globally — is picking up speed. After hitting several flagship and mid-range models earlier this month, the stable update has quietly arrived for four more popular devices that users have been waiting on.

The newest phones to get the HyperOS 3 stable build are the Poco F7 Pro, Poco F7, Poco M6, and Redmi 13. The rollout is happening in waves through incremental OTA updates, so you may not see the notification right away. As usual, timing varies by region and device batch.

Here are the builds currently pushing out:

• Poco F7 Pro – OS3.0.4.0.WOKMIXM
• Poco F7 – OS3.0.3.0.WOLMIXM
• Poco M6 – OS3.0.2.0.WNTMIXM
• Redmi 13 – OS3.0.2.0.WNTMIXM

It’s not a huge surprise to see the F7 series finally join the list. Their Chinese twins — the Redmi K80 and Redmi Turbo 4 Pro — received their Android 16-based HyperOS updates earlier, which usually signals that the global Poco versions aren’t far behind.

HyperOS 3 is one of Xiaomi’s most ambitious software updates in years. Beyond the performance tuning under the hood, it brings a fresh visual layer with features like HyperIsland (Xiaomi’s take on Dynamic Island), new lockscreen styles, a more capable Gallery editor, and tighter integration with Google’s Gemini AI. There’s also Touch to Share, expanded system-wide translation, and enhanced AI writing and voice tools on supported hardware.

If you own one of these newly supported models, it’s worth checking the updater over the next few days. The Android 16-based HyperOS 3 build should reach your device as soon as your region’s rollout window opens.

While Xiaomi is slowly but steadily rolling out the HyperOS 3 update globally, the latest major OS update is set to arrive in the Indian market. The company has just teased the next major software upgrade, bringing the new Android 16 OS and various new features. So here’s what we know.

Xiaomi’s HyperOS 3 Update Will Arrive in India Soon

From its official Xiaomi HyperOS India account on X (formerly Twitter), the Chinese tech giant shared a teaser poster that confirmed the imminent release of HyperOS 3 in India. Looking at the image, the next gen OS update is “Coming Soon” in India. This is an odd post considering that the last tweet from this account was back in December 2024.

The brand has started rolling out the HyperOS 3 update in various regions across the globe; however, the Indian market is seeing a slower release. At the moment, even their flagship Xiaomi 15 series models haven’t received this major update. Although, some Redmi 13 users in the tweet have stated that their devices are getting the HyperOS 3 update.

To recall, HyperOS 3 brings a bunch of new features, like the Super Island, along with various AI powered tools, and an improved user interface. Apart from overhauls to the visuals and design of the Android custom skin, HyperOS 3 also improves Xiaomi’s ecosystem integration for a more seamless cross platform experience, including better support for Apple’s ecosystem as well. In related news, the company has just started testing HyperOS 3 for the POCO F5 and POCO F5 Pro.

The post Xiaomi HyperOS 3 “Coming Soon” in India: Teaser appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Poco F5 and Poco F5 Pro have entered the internal testing phase for HyperOS 3, indicating they are getting closer to a stable release. As spotted by Xiaomitime, these HyperOS 3 internal builds are based on Android 15, not Android 16, which means the Poco F5 and F5 Pro will likely miss out on some of the latest features.

The HyperOS 3 test build for the Poco F5 has been spotted in India and EEA regions, whereas the test build for the Pro model has appeared in even more regions, including  Europe, Turkey, Taiwan, and Russia. Here are the internal test builds:

  • India: OS3.0.0.1.VMRINXM
  • EEA: OS3.0.0.1.VMREUXM

  • Taiwan: OS3.0.0.1.VMNTWXM
  • Russia: OS3.0.0.1.VMNRUXM

These internal test builds aren’t available to the public, but indicate that a broader stable release could be on the way. Once the internal testing is done, Xiaomi may release the beta update to a limited set of users, followed by the stable release.

Xiaomi hasn’t officially confirmed that an Android 15 version of the HyperOS 3 upgrade is in the pipeline. However, the internal test builds tell a different story. So far, the company has only released the HyperOS 3 upgrade based on Android 16, but it won’t be long before the Android 15 version starts rolling out to older devices.

Here’s a list of Xiaomi devices that are already getting the Android 16-based HyperOS 3 update:

• Xiaomi 15
• Xiaomi 15 Ultra
• Xiaomi 15T

It looks and works similarly to Apple’s Dynamic Island, but Xiaomi’s implementation supports up to three islands and floating windows for better multitasking. The upgrade also brings new icons with a more vivid color palette and rounded corners. The lock screen also improves significantly, thanks to new features such as AI Cinematic Lock Screen and AI Dynamic Wallpapers, which transform a traditional lock screen into an immersive, cinematic visual display.

HyperOS 3 introduces a new suite of AI features assisted by Xiaomi HyperAI, including smart screen recognition and DeepThink mode. Xiaomi has also added AI Speech Recognition, which enables users to reduce background noise, convert speech to text during recording, and generate an instant summary of the recording. The AI Search feature enables users to summarize search results and search on-device content.

Xiaomi has also enhanced cross-device connectivity with HyperOS 3, particularly with Apple devices, enabling them to run Xiaomi apps on iPads, run multiple apps from Xiaomi phones on a Mac in desktop-style windows, and unlock a Xiaomi phone using Touch ID or Face ID.

The post These Xiaomi & Redmi Devices Are Receiving the HyperOS 3 Stable Update appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi has quietly begun testing HyperOS 3, based on Android 15, and a dozen devices are already running early builds. For many of them, this will also be the last major software upgrade they ever receive.

Internal Mi Community testing logs show that these models are currently being tested with Android 15-based HyperOS 3 builds:

• Redmi Note 13 5G series (Global, EEA, Turkey, China)
• POCO F5 Pro / Redmi K60 (Global + China)
• Xiaomi 13 Lite / Civi 2 (EEA)
• Xiaomi MIX FOLD 2
• Xiaomi 12T Pro / Redmi K50 Ultra
• Xiaomi 12 Pro / 12S Ultra / 12
• Redmi K60 Pro
• Xiaomi Civi 3
• Redmi Note 12T Pro
• Xiaomi Pad 6 Pro

Among them, the Redmi Note 13 5G appears to be closest to a public rollout with the build OS3.0.0.2.VNQMIXM already in a near-stable state.

For many of the devices on this list, XiaomiTime expects HyperOS 3 to be the final major update. After HyperOS 3:

• Only security updates may continue
• No HyperOS 3.1
• No Android 16
• No more feature additions

If a device isn’t on the testing list by now, chances are slim that it will ever receive HyperOS 3.

HyperOS 3 does bring meaningful improvements—smoother animations and improved memory handling. But for a lot of users, this update won’t just be another version bump. It’s the final chapter for phones that still have plenty of life left in their hardware.

In short, if your Xiaomi device made the cut, enjoy the upgrade while it lasts. If not, you may soon start feeling the limits of an aging software base.
