It connects more than 200 products from the Chinese company, from Xiaomi, REDMI, POCO smartwatches and smartphones to LED desktop lapms and electric cars.

Rumours about the development of a new operating system for Xiaomi, REDMI and POCO phones have been around for a long time. It was called MiOS, CNMIOS, PengpaiOS and even Mina. We didn’t guess with the name, but the new OS was indeed created and it was officially unveiled along with the new Xiaomi 14 flagship in late 2023.

HyperOS: what’s new

Xiaomi Corporation not only makes smartphones, but over 200 different devices including smart watches, smart home devices and more. HyperOS is designed to simplify human interaction with this ecosystem.

Its development was officially launched in 2017. The developers aimed to unify support for all devices and applications through a set of system frameworks. Xiaomi HyperOS is based on Linux (Android is based on it) and Xiaomi’s own Vela platform for IoT (Internet of Things) devices.

The basic architecture has been rewritten, but the design of the new system is very similar to MIUI. It would be strange to create it from scratch when there is a lot of experience with MIUI interface and there are many users who are used to it.

What’s new in HyperOS:

• The operating system can be installed on smartphones, smartwatches, TVs, cars, and other Xiaomi devices.
• With the integrated HyperConnect device centre, you can control virtually the entire set of devices connected to your ecosystem from anywhere – at home, on the go or in the office. For example, the brightness of a table lamp and other features of smart ecosystem devices.
• Data transfers between devices use end-to-end encryption with TEE.
• It’s more productive and power efficient than MIUI. The same running of resource-demanding smartphone games provides more stable frame rates and lower power consumption compared to stock Android.
• Multitasking (dividing tasks into several computational units for joint processing) is supported, which allows for a big performance boost.
• The file system, memory management, image processing subsystem and networking system have been restructured.
• You can switch camera sources during video conferences, access in-car cameras from your phone, access your smartphone’s rear camera while using your tablet or laptop, or connect your tablet to the Internet via your smartphone.
• Apps, clipboard content and notifications can be moved between devices.
• The HyperMind ecosystem’s cognitive centre analyses a person’s environment and behaviour to learn their needs and automatically adapt devices to meet them. For example, if you always switch on the lights in the living room when unlocking the smart door lock, HyperMind will suggest automatically switching on the lights in the room when you open the door.
• Xiaomi AI Assistant can generate texts, images, create subtitles in real time to transcribe conversations during video conferences and save them as notes. It also adds voice search for images in photo albums.

In addition to the appearance, there are more significant changes. For example, enhanced customisation options, redesigned menus, and new features to extend the phone’s life to a single charge.

HyperOS supports devices with RAM sizes ranging from 64 Kbytes to 24 GB. The firmware takes up only 8.75 GB on smartphones.

What’s new in the HyperOS interface:

1. Cosmetic changes to the interface, like new icons and fonts. The operating system has become a bit more like Apple iOS, but it clearly shows the MIUI 14 successor.
2. The updated notification bar has received a new smooth downward scroll animation. It now displays the player and lets you switch tracks.
3. Wallpaper settings, customisation options and new presets have become very similar to what the latest iOS versions offer.
4. The settings menu has been redesigned and some features have been moved to other sections. It’s definitely become more convenient.
5. The Security app received 4 modes of device battery life: performance mode, balanced, economy and ultra-economy.
6. Added “Battery Protection” section, which displays battery temperature, number of charges for today. Here you can also enable or disable optimised charging, which is designed to reduce battery ageing. For this purpose, the device takes into account the peculiarities of the charging mode to reduce the number of unnecessary continuous recharges.
7. In the Advanced Features section, there’s now a Night Mode option that automatically disables certain features to save battery power when the device goes into sleep mode.
8. You can control app autorun and dark mode, close battery-draining apps, enable automatic brightness adjustment, and automatically clear the device memory 10 minutes after it’s locked. All of this will save battery life. Each item has an indication of how many minutes of device life it will add.
9. The Notes app has updated fonts.
10. The Weather and Calendar apps have been updated.
11. Changed the look of the calculator to match the HyperOS interface style.
12. The redesign of “Gallery” resulted in the appearance of “Photos” and “Albums” sections on the bottom panel. Albums are further divided by type: portrait, timelapse, selfies, burst, slo-mo, and documents.
13. The camera app has become more like its iOS counterpart and has been tweaked for one-handed use.
14. New animations have been added. For example, when you connect your smartphone to the charger, a corresponding animation appears at the top of the screen, as if sliding the screen down for a few seconds.
