Xiaomi is stirring excitement in the Indian market with its announcement of the HyperOS launch.
So now it’s almost time to start saying goodbye to MIUI as this new user interface is not just an update; it’s a complete revamp meant for Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO devices.
The reason we say almost is because not all Xiaomi devices are getting the update. As usual, this will be a phased roll-out.
In this exciting rollout, the Xiaomi 13 Pro and the Xiaomi Pad 6 are at the forefront, set to be the first recipients of HyperOS in India.
This update is expected to hit these devices in January, marking the start of a new era for Xiaomi’s user interface in the country.
As mentioned above, Redmi is gearing up for the Indian launch of its Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G, a device that’s poised to be the first in the world to feature the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 series SoC.
The device, already making waves in China, boasts impressive specifications.
It features a 6.67-inch OLED screen with a 2712 x 1220 resolution, complemented by a 120Hz refresh rate and a 240Hz touch sampling rate.
Enhanced with Dolby Vision and a peak brightness of 1800 nits, the display, safeguarded by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus, promises an immersive and durable viewing experience.
The Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G doesn’t just impress with its display; it also offers varied storage options with 8GB+128GB and 12GB+256GB variants, catering to diverse user needs.
The phone’s camera capabilities are equally noteworthy, featuring a triple camera setup with a 200MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP macro camera.
A 16MP front camera ensures quality selfies and crisp video calls.
Powering the device is a 5100mAh battery supported by 67W fast charging, striking a perfect balance between battery life and charging efficiency.

HyperOS is a complete revamp of Xiaomi’s user interface, replacing MIUI. The Xiaomi 13 Pro and Xiaomi Pad 6 are the first devices in India to receive this update, starting in January.
HyperOS will be rolled out in phases, and not all Xiaomi devices are scheduled to receive the update. It’s planned for select Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO models.
Built on Linux and Xiaomi Vela systems, HyperOS brings AI integration for improved performance and security, a redesigned control center, and customizable lock screens with new fonts, widgets, and templates.
The Xiaomi 14, rumored to be the first device to come with HyperOS based on Android 14, is expected to launch at MWC 2024.
The Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G, set to launch in India, is anticipated to be the world’s first device with the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 series SoC.
Key features of HyperOS include minimal system storage usage, support for a wide range of RAM, improved network performance, enhanced multitasking capabilities, advanced AI functionalities, and a comprehensive security model.
HyperOS is Xiaomi’s latest user interface that builds on the upcoming Android 14 platform. It represents an integration of Xiaomi’s design philosophy with the newest features and security enhancements of Android’s latest version.
As such, devices on the Android 14 beta, particularly those with MIUI 14, are expected to transition seamlessly to the stable release of HyperOS.
According to the rollout roadmap, Xiaomi’s HyperOS update will be initially tested and launched on a select group of smartphones.
This includes the Xiaomi 13 series (standard, Pro, Ultra, and T variants), the 12T and 12T Pro models, the 11T, and the upcoming Xiaomi Pad 6.
While the current testing phase includes Xiaomi branded phones, the historical trend of how updates are managed suggests that Redmi and POCO devices could also receive HyperOS.
Given their shared architecture with Xiaomi models, it’s likely that these devices will follow in the update path in the future.
Xiaomi’s official schedule points to a Q1 2024 release for HyperOS. However, the ongoing internal tests hint at the possibility of an earlier rollout.
Optimistically, the update could be made available to the public as early as the end of the current year.
HyperOS comes with advanced resource management capabilities, allowing for smooth performance and better power efficiency.
It also integrates AI-based features for personalized usage patterns, which can lead to further enhancements in device efficiency.
