One of the Android oems speeding up the release of Android 16 is Xiaomi with HyperOS 3.0 skin. The company has now disclosed the whole list of smartphones and tablets that will receive the significant OS update, including Redmi and Poco models, in response to last month’s introduction of HyperOS 3.0, which is based on Android 16.
The Xiaomi 17 Pro was the company’s flagship smartphone when it introduced a number of others last week. However, we also discovered more fascinating information regarding the HyperOS 3.0 deployment, in addition to the new hardware portfolio.
A limited number of smartphones, including the recently revealed Xiaomi 15T series, the flagship Xiaomi 15 (Pro) and 15 Ultra, and mid-range models like the Redmi Note 14 Pro, Poco X7, and Poco F7 (Ultra review), will start receiving HyperOS 3.0 in October. The Xiaomi Pad 7 and Pad Mini will be the first tablets to be supported.
The update has already begun to roll out for wearables, including the Xiaomi Watch S4 and the Smart Band 10 Glimmer Edition. Although a precise date has not yet been determined, this will eventually extend to the Smart Band 10 Ceramic and regular variants.
In November and December, HyperOS 3.0 will be released for additional devices. These consist of the Redmi Note 13, Redmi 13, Redmi 14C, Redmi 15 4G, Redmi Pad 2, and Xiaomi 14 Ultra. The Poco F6 Pro, Poco X6 Pro, Poco M6 Pro, and Poco M7 are also categorized under the Poco sub-brand.
The rest of the flagship, mid-range, and low-cost smartphones will be released between December and March. These consist of the Xiaomi 13T series, Xiaomi 12T Pro, Xiaomi 13 Lite, and Xiaomi 12. This release window also includes the Redmi Note 14, Note 13, Redmi 15 5G, and Redmi 15C.
The basic Xiaomi 12T was released alongside the 12T Pro, thus it’s still unknown why it’s not included. The Redmi 12 and Redmi 12 Pro, which have reached the end of their main OS update support but will still receive security updates for another year, are a more noteworthy omission.
Performance and visual design have undergone significant upgrades in HyperOS 3.0. Super Island, Xiaomi’s version of Apple’s Dynamic Island, is introduced in the user interface. It allows for dynamic and real-time content overlays surrounding the punch-hole camera. AI-generated options for new background and lock screen styles are also included.
According to Xiaomi, HyperOS 3.0 offers performance gains of up to 30%. Ultra-low latency and pressure-sensitive pens and styluses are becoming more compatible with large-screen devices, such as tablets.
With capabilities like HyperAI Writing, real-time transcription, and subtitle production, AI improvements are also a top priority.
