HyperOS Global Rollout Targets Q1 2026 for Mid-Range Devices

hyperOS

Following its initial launch on high-end devices, Xiaomi has officially detailed the timeline for the global deployment of its new operating system, HyperOS. The comprehensive rollout is scheduled to commence in the first quarter of 2026, targeting the company's vast mid-range portfolio, including the popular Redmi and Poco lineups.

Replacing MIUI

HyperOS is set to completely replace the long-running MIUI interface, promising a more lightweight, efficient, and interconnected experience across Xiaomi's entire ecosystem—from smartphones to smart home devices. Key features include improved memory management, better resource allocation, and enhanced visual design consistency.

Extended Reach

This global deployment is crucial for Xiaomi's market position. By bringing a unified, modern operating system to its high-volume mid-range devices, the company aims to improve user satisfaction, encourage brand loyalty, and better compete with the user experience offered by near-stock Android devices and competitors like Samsung. The stability and success of this Q1 2026 rollout will be a key performance indicator for the company.
