Xiaomi has officially confirmed that its next OS update will be named HyperOS 3, dismissing earlier rumors that suggested it might launch as HyperOS 26. The update will be based on Android 16.
The Chinese brand revealed in a Weibo post that it will unveil HyperOS 3 on August 28 at an event in China.
In another post, Xiaomi’s Lu Weibing noted that the upcoming update will improve UI smoothness and responsiveness. We’re not really sure what that means, but all will be revealed tomorrow.
Meanwhile, Xiaomi will also release the first HyperOS 3 beta immediately after the event to eligible devices. Talking about eligibility, the beta will be first rolled out to the Xiaomi 15 series, Redmi K80 Pro/Ultimate Edition, Pad 7S Pro 12.5, and the Pad 7 Pro in China.
