Xiaomi HyperOS, sometimes shortened as HyperOS , is an operating system developed by Xiaomi. It is based on Android and unifies MIUI, Vela OS, Mina OS and operating system software architectures including IoT devices and automobiles.[1] It was announced on October 17, 2023, and debuted alongside Xiaomi 14 Series on October 26, 2023.[2][3][4] It succeeded MIUI as Xiaomi's mobile operating system.[5]

Different versions of HyperOS are developed for different regions: China, EEA (Europe), India, and a Global version. For each region, Xiaomi devices have different HyperOS implementations. The EEA version differs from the Global version in meeting specific EEA regulations for mobile phones regarding advertising and other issues.

Versions

As for MIUI, there are HyperOS versions for different regions: China, India, EEA (Europe) and a Global version. EEA HyperOS, in particular, supports EEA phone regulations such as for GDPR and restricting advertising. HyperOS versions are specific to a region and to a particular device model. Xiaomi makes communication devices under three brands, which all support HyperOS: Xiaomi, Redmi, and Poco; Poco phones and tablets are global versions of devices sold as Redmi in China.

The version code consists of the release number followed by seven letters. The first letter identifies the Android version it is based on, the second and third letters specify the device model, the fourth and fifth letters the region, and the last two letters the mobile operator, or "XM" if not locked to any operator.[15] For example, 2.0.205.0.SKGTRXM is release 2.0.205.0 of HyperOS 2, based on Android 12 (S), for Redmi Note 10 (KG), Turkey version (TR), not locked to an operator (XM). A list of the latest releases for different models and regions is maintained.[16]

Custom versions

An organization named Xiaomi Europe, using the domain xiaomi.eu and working officially with Xiaomi despite not being affiliated with the Chinese company,[17] was set up in 2010 as a community for English-language Xiaomi users with phones running MIUI, and later HyperOS, associated with an Android version, with discussion forums. The website issues its own debloated and improved versions of Xiaomi ROM images based on China ROMs for devices using Qualcomm Snapdragon hardware. Weekly beta versions of MIUI and HyperOS were also issued, but Xiaomi later stopped making their HyperOS beta code available.[17] Installing an unofficial ROM image on an Android phone is technically challenging, requiring the bootloader to be unlocked and the firmware flashed.

xiaomi.eu say that their ROMs were approved by the official EU distributor ABC Data to not void warranty for devices sold by them.[18] According to a xiaomi.eu leader in 2021, the official ROM must be flashed and the bootloader locked before returning a device for warranty repair.[19]
