Xiaomi HyperOS 3 Global Rollout Commences with 15T Series, Ushering in a New Era of AI and System Fluidity
The highly anticipated global rollout of Xiaomi HyperOS 3 has officially begun, marking a significant shift for the company's Android-based operating system. Announced alongside the new Xiaomi 15T and 15T Pro, the update brings a comprehensive package of design refinements, deep AI integration, and core performance boosts across the entire Xiaomi ecosystem.
The initial phased rollout started in October 2025, with the Xiaomi 15T and 15T Pro devices in Europe being the first in line to receive the stable build. This prioritization of the T-series over the flagship Xiaomi 15 and 15 Ultra is a notable move, suggesting Xiaomi is using the powerful mid-range lineup to ensure stability before a wider deployment. The rollout is expected to continue through November and into early 2026 for a vast array of eligible smartphones, tablets, and wearables.
Key Features and Design Overhaul
HyperOS 3 focuses on creating a more intuitive, fluid, and connected user experience, moving beyond previous MIUI iterations with a fresh design language and groundbreaking new features:
1. Hyper Island: The Interactive Hub
The most visually striking new feature is Hyper Island, Xiaomi's answer to the dynamic notification and multitasking area. Located around the front camera, this interactive zone shows real-time activities such as charging status, music controls, and live activity updates. It supports up to three simultaneous notifications and allows users to expand activities into floating windows or drag content directly from the island for sharing. Xiaomi claims support for over 70 apps at launch.
2. Enhanced Performance and System Fluidity
Xiaomi has engineered significant optimizations under the hood, promising tangible improvements in daily use.
- Speed: HyperOS 3 claims up to 21% faster app launch speeds and smoother system animations, with over 100 animations being refined for visual continuity.
- Efficiency: System optimizations result in less taxing background processes, leading to lower power consumption and better thermal management during intensive tasks like gaming.
- Gaming: Gamers can expect improvements, including reduced touch response latency and better frame rate stability.
3. Deep AI and Google Gemini Integration
The new OS leverages the power of Artificial Intelligence for system-wide enhancements:
- AI Writing & Speech: Features include automatic text summarization, proofreading, and real-time transcription with speaker separation in the Recorder app.
- AI Search & Gemini: A deep integration with Google Gemini provides system-wide contextual AI capabilities like Circle to Search (instantly retrieving information by circling content on the screen) and the ability to ask contextual questions based on the screen or camera view.
- Personalization: The new AI Cinematic Lock Screen adds motion-powered, immersive depth effects to still pictures. The Gallery app also benefits from improved AI-powered search, recognizing new categories like food and landscapes for quicker results.
4. Cross-Device Ecosystem and Apple Compatibility
HyperOS 3 significantly strengthens Xiaomi's ecosystem integration and, surprisingly, introduces seamless connectivity with Apple devices:
- Touch to Share: A new proximity-based sharing feature allows for the high-speed, lossless transfer of photos, videos, files, and even Wi-Fi passwords by simply tapping devices together.
- Apple Device Support: For the first time, users can utilize Home Screen+ to run Xiaomi phone apps on an iPad with multitasking support, and even unlock a Xiaomi phone using the Touch ID or Face ID on a Mac.
