  • Xiaomi expands Android 16 rollout with HyperOS 3.0 update

    Xiaomi expands Android 16 rollout with HyperOS 3.0 update

    One of the Android oems speeding up the release of Android 16 is Xiaomi with HyperOS 3.0 skin. The company has now disclosed the whole list of smartphones and tablets that will receive the significant OS update, including Redmi and Poco models, in response to last month’s introduction of HyperOS 3.0, which is based on Android 16.

    The Xiaomi 17 Pro was the company’s flagship smartphone when it introduced a number of others last week. However, we also discovered more fascinating information regarding the HyperOS 3.0 deployment, in addition to the new hardware portfolio.

    First devices to receive HyperOS 3.0

    A limited number of smartphones, including the recently revealed Xiaomi 15T series, the flagship Xiaomi 15 (Pro) and 15 Ultra, and mid-range models like the Redmi Note 14 Pro, Poco X7, and Poco F7 (Ultra review), will start receiving HyperOS 3.0 in October. The Xiaomi Pad 7 and Pad Mini will be the first tablets to be supported.

    Xiaomi expands Android 16 rollout with HyperOS 3.0 update

    The update has already begun to roll out for wearables, including the Xiaomi Watch S4 and the Smart Band 10 Glimmer Edition. Although a precise date has not yet been determined, this will eventually extend to the Smart Band 10 Ceramic and regular variants.

    Another batch for November and December

    In November and December, HyperOS 3.0 will be released for additional devices. These consist of the Redmi Note 13, Redmi 13, Redmi 14C, Redmi 15 4G, Redmi Pad 2, and Xiaomi 14 Ultra. The Poco F6 Pro, Poco X6 Pro, Poco M6 Pro, and Poco M7 are also categorized under the Poco sub-brand.

    The rest of the flagship, mid-range, and low-cost smartphones will be released between December and March. These consist of the Xiaomi 13T series, Xiaomi 12T Pro, Xiaomi 13 Lite, and Xiaomi 12. This release window also includes the Redmi Note 14, Note 13, Redmi 15 5G, and Redmi 15C.

    Not receiving HyperOS 3.0

    The basic Xiaomi 12T was released alongside the 12T Pro, thus it’s still unknown why it’s not included. The Redmi 12 and Redmi 12 Pro, which have reached the end of their main OS update support but will still receive security updates for another year, are a more noteworthy omission.

    What’s new in HyperOS 3.0

    What’s new in HyperOS 3.0

    Performance and visual design have undergone significant upgrades in HyperOS 3.0. Super Island, Xiaomi’s version of Apple’s Dynamic Island, is introduced in the user interface. It allows for dynamic and real-time content overlays surrounding the punch-hole camera. AI-generated options for new background and lock screen styles are also included.

    According to Xiaomi, HyperOS 3.0 offers performance gains of up to 30%. Ultra-low latency and pressure-sensitive pens and styluses are becoming more compatible with large-screen devices, such as tablets.

    With capabilities like HyperAI Writing, real-time transcription, and subtitle production, AI improvements are also a top priority.

  • HyperOS 3 beta now available on 12 additional Xiaomi and Redmi models

    HyperOS 3 beta now available on 12 additional Xiaomi and Redmi models

    The Xiaomi 14 series, MIX Flip, MIX Fold 4, and Redmi K70 range are among the additional smartphones that Xiaomi is releasing HyperOS 3 for. Owners of these phones can now receive an early sample of the Android 16-based upgrade before the stable release occurs later this year, while testing is still ongoing.

    A new batch of Xiaomi and Redmi smartphones have been added to the HyperOS 3 beta program, which enables a small group of customers to test drive the company’s latest software prior to its general release. Owners of the Xiaomi 14 series, MIX Flip, Redmi K70 lineup, and Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro are being invited to participate in the most recent round. They will have the opportunity to test an early build of HyperOS 3, which is based on Android 16, and assist the software team in resolving any significant bugs or issues before the scheduled stable rollout.

    The list of gadgets receiving the most recent wave of the HyperOS 3 beta:

    • Xiaomi MIX Fold 4
    • Xiaomi MIX Flip
    • Xiaomi 14 Ultra
    • Xiaomi 14 Ultra Titanium Edition
    • Xiaomi 14 Pro 
    • Xiaomi 14 Pro Titanium Edition

    • Redmi K70 (sold internationally as the POCO F6 Pro)
    • Redmi K70E (sold internationally as the POCO X6 Pro)
    • Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro 12.4

    Although the closed beta is now only available for Chinese models, international versions will soon follow. A broader deployment appears inevitable, as Xiaomi has already begun similar beta tests for international models such as the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, Xiaomi 14T, POCO F7, Redmi 15C, and POCO C85.

For every device, two groups of testers will be hired; testers in the first batch will have instant access to the update, while testers in the second batch may have to wait up to ten days. Before beginning, make sure you have a complete backup of your device and have read the instructions.

    Hyper Island coming to Xiaomi phones: eligible devices revealed

    Prepare yourself for a whole new way to use your Xiaomi gadget! As part of the forthcoming Xiaomi HyperOS 3 upgrade, the company is introducing an exciting new feature dubbed Hyper Island. This creative new menu will show up in a pill-shaped notch area surrounding the camera cutout on your screen, much like Apple’s Dynamic Island. You will be able to quickly and easily access media controls, navigation instructions, and notifications.

    This revolutionizes the way you handle your daily responsibilities on your phone by providing a seamless and user-friendly interface that makes multitasking effortless.

    What is Xiaomi Hyper Island?

    Without taking up too much space on your screen, the Hyper Island function is made to place important information where you need it.

This is a totally redesigned user experience that is entertaining and highly useful; it’s about more than simply notifications.

    Oppo confirms launch date for ColorOS 16 based on Android 16

    Samsung began updating its handsets to Android 16 earlier this week, and Oppo will do the same, albeit it doesn’t appear to be happening anytime soon. A recent rumor claims that the Chinese smartphone manufacturer would formally launch ColorOS 16, which is based on Android 16, on October 15 (it would have been great if it had been October 16, but we’re getting ahead of ourselves).

    Although it’s unknown which handsets will receive an upgrade on that day, it’s hoped that the distribution will begin right away. After all, Android 16 has been available since June, so Oppo’s updating rate is appalling.

    Whats is new in ColorOS 16

    The primary update in ColorOS 16 will be a new Liquid Glass user interface (hello, Apple). This will have dynamic animations, layered glass-like elements, and a transparent appearance, similar to iOS 26. This will provide a “futuristic and colorful feel” to the user interface, according to the leak’s source.

    ColorOS 16 mega leak

    Performance enhancements, a full-screen Always-On Display (hey Apple!), and updated lock screen widgets are reportedly on the horizon. Along with a redesigned Photos app and other personalization choices, system responsiveness should be increased for a more seamless overall experience.

    The Find X9 and Find X9 Pro, which may actually be unveiled on October 15 at the same time, will, as you might imagine, be the first devices to run ColorOS 16 straight out of the box.

  • Nothing highlights Android 16 update: new design, ‘Extra Dark’ mode, smarter AI

    Nothing highlights Android 16 update: new design, ‘Extra Dark’ mode, smarter AI

    Nothing is showcasing its Android 16 update, Nothing OS 4.0, as well as its new features and designs, ahead of its open beta launch that is “coming soon.”

    Earlier this year, the Phone (3) and Nothing OS 4.0 were announced, although the design hasn’t been revealed yet. However, nothing explains the new features of its Android 16 version in a recent post and video.

    The primary visual upgrade of Nothing OS 4.0 is a “sharper, more deliberate design across every layer.” Specifically mentions an improved Quick Settings panel, new lock screen clocks, and other changes across Nothing’s apps.

    nothing os 4 android 16 ipdate
    nothing os 4 quick settings

    In contrast to Android’s usual dark grey theme, there is a new “Extra Dark” theme that is completely black.

    The floating app icons improve multitasking, yet nothing indicates that the camera or overall performance would be improved—the latter due to the “TrueLens Engine.

    Lastly, a brand-new AI dashboard that analyzes your usage of Nothing’s AI capabilities has been introduced. In particular, it deconstructs the AI models that Nothing’s AI features—such as Whisper, GPT-4o, and Gemini Flash—use.

    nothing os 14 ai

    The release date for OS 4.0 is not specified, but it is stated that it will happen “soon.” According to Nothing’s existing support promises, the update will eventually reach Phone (2), Phone (2a), Phone (3a), and CMF phones, though it is likely to begin on Phone (3).

  • Xiaomi update list: 31 phones won’t go beyond Android 15

    Xiaomi update list: 31 phones won’t go beyond Android 15

    For owners of some well-known models, Xiaomi’s upgrade timeline is not good news. Android 16 will not be available for thirty-one Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO phones. Rather, the last significant update for these smartphones will be HyperOS 3, which is based on Android 15. Support will then be restricted to minor fixes and security patches.

    In the universe of Android, this is not uncommon. Major updates are typically offered by brands for two to three years, with newer flagships receiving longer support. The similar pattern applies to Xiaomi’s choice, which focuses on enhancing HyperOS for the devices that are still eligible.

    POCO devices at the end of the line

    The POCO lineup losing future Android updates includes some well-known mid-range performers:

    • POCO C65
    • POCO F5 5G
    • POCO F5 Pro
    • POCO M6 Pro
    • POCO X6 Neo

    For these phones, HyperOS 3 will be the last major software release.

    Redmi phones stopping at HyperOS 3

    Numerous models in the Redmi series also stop supporting Android 15. The Redmi K lineup, low-cost gadgets, and even several Note series favorites are included in the list:

    • Redmi 12, 12 5G, 13C, 13C 5G, 13R
    • Redmi K50 Ultra, Redmi K60
    • Redmi Note 12 (4G, NFC 4G, 12R, 12S, 12T Pro, 12 Turbo)
    • Redmi Note 13 (4G, 4G NFC, 5G, 13R Pro)

    This marks the end of updates for several phones that were popular in markets like India and Southeast Asia.

    Xiaomi flagships are nearing the limit of updates.

    Not even expensive gadgets are exempt. Android 16 will not be available for a number of Xiaomi 12 series phones, such as the 12 Pro, 12S Ultra, and 12T Pro. This is also where the Civi 3 and MIX Fold 2 complete their lifetime.

    Full flagship list:

    • Xiaomi 12, 12 Pro, 12S, 12S Pro, 12S Ultra
    • Xiaomi 12T, 12T Pro
    • Xiaomi Civi 3
    • Xiaomi MIX Fold 2

    Android 15 is not the end of the story for these devices. It is anticipated that HyperOS 3 would come with a new interface that is modeled after Apple’s renowned “liquid glass” design. Users should anticipate improved system speed, additional customization choices, and a redesigned control center editor.

    Although it’s the final significant update for these phones, the distribution is scheduled to start in September 2025 and provides them a more upscale appearance before updates formally cease.

  • OnePlus is preparing the OxygenOS 16 launch

    OnePlus is preparing the OxygenOS 16 launch

    OxygenOS 16, based on Android 16, will be a major upgrade for OnePlus devices, expected to bring tons of enhancements, new features, and visual changes throughout the system. The Android 16 beta has been available to select OnePlus phones since April, and now it appears that the stable release of OxygenOS 16 is around the corner. So, if you have a OnePlus device, here’s what you need to know and what to expect.

    When the stable release will be pushed to public?

    This year, Google released Android 16 more quickly than normal. The new operating system upgrade was made available to qualified Google Pixels in June. Although we had anticipated a speedier release from other Android companies as well, the stable release is taking a long time to arrive.

    However, earlier this year, OnePlus was among the first companies to release the Android 16 beta. The second and third betas for the OnePlus 13 were released in April and May, respectively, omitting the first beta. However, it hasn’t said anything regarding the stable release as of yet. OnePlus has not disclosed the plan or the date of the stable OxygenOS 16 release.

    However, given that the company has already started OxygenOS 16 closed beta testing on a number of handsets, including the OnePlus 13 and 13s, it looks like the stable release may not be far off. This beta program is fairly private. Before releasing the stable build, OnePlus may soon conduct a large-scale open beta release for its users.

    In October, the brand is anticipated to begin the stable rollout of OxygenOS 16. The upgrade will first be available for the OnePlus 13 series, then previous flagship phones, and finally mid-range and less expensive variants.

    What will OxygenOS 16 bring?

    OxygenOS 16 leaked screenshots

    Details on OxygenOS 16’s upcoming features and updates have not been disclosed by OnePlus. But because to recent leaks and earlier beta releases, we already have a solid notion of it. Along with several updates and new features from the OnePlus development team, the update will include new Google features as part of Android 16.

    A revamped fast settings menu, more customization options, notification grouping, and the most recent security and privacy improvements are just a few of the things that OnePlus may incorporate into its upcoming major update from Android 16. For increased utility, Live Alerts might be combined with Android 16’s Live Updates feature.

    A leak from Smartprix claims that OxygenOS 16 will finally include the eagerly anticipated lock screen widgets, increasing the lock screen’s usefulness. Numerous widgets will be available, such as calendar, weather, and widgets from compatible apps. Three new clock styles are also being added to the lock screen, one of which is a full-width stretched clock modeled after iOS 16.

    New choices also improve the Quick Settings panel. Users can drag and drop toggles anywhere on the screen while using the Split layout. For convenience, a new scrollable layout has also been included. The update also includes a number of internal adjustments that improve the software’s responsiveness and smoothness.

    When OnePlus publishes the final version of OxygenOS 16, I’m very certain there will be a ton of more great additions and updates. There is a lot to anticipate, so to remain informed about the most recent developments, you might want to frequently check out our Android 16 section or think about subscribing to our X.
