The long-awaited Android 16 phase has now officially started for Xiaomi’s flagship family. Today, the stable Xiaomi HyperOS 3.1 update began rolling out to Xiaomi 15 users in the European Economic Area (EEA). This major release is an important step in Xiaomi’s software progress, moving beyond earlier beta builds and delivering a fully public, stable version directly through the Updater app.

This update brings a major refresh to the system interface, the underlying code structure, and the company’s cross-platform ecosystem features. Here is the technical breakdown of the main additions in HyperOS 3.1:
Device Name: Xiaomi 15
Device Codename: dada
Target Region: EEA (Europe)
OS Version: OS3.0.301.0.WOCEUXM
Android Version: Android 16
Release Type: Stable (Publicly available via the system Updater)
For everyday users, the move to Android 16 and HyperOS 3.1 should make the phone feel noticeably smoother and more responsive. The Rust-based system apps help memory allocation work more efficiently, which should reduce the chances of the UI dropping frames during heavy multitasking.
The upgraded iOS connectivity is also likely to be especially useful for users working across mixed-device setups. It removes much of the friction involved in moving media or documents between a Xiaomi flagship and an iPad or Mac, which should make day-to-day file sharing feel far less tedious.
