Xiaomi has officially launched the HyperOS 3 beta program in India, targeting select Xiaomi and Redmi devices. This is a significant opportunity for users in the region to be early adopters of their Android 16-based operating system. With the recruitment phase now underway, Xiaomi enthusiasts have a unique opportunity to see the features and benefits of the new system before the wider public release.
It is worth noting that POCO smartphones are notably left out of the current list of supported devices, which has understandably sparked curiosity among POCO users about the future support timeline. Overall, the upcoming launch of HyperOS 3 will deliver significant improvements - including optimized performance, an updated user interface, and features designed to simplify everyday business and personal tasks.

HyperOS 3 beta has several improvements to enhance productivity and user satisfaction. Visually, users will see redesigned system icons, updated battery and signal indicators - providing a modern, consistent look. Newly integrated is a dynamic island-style feature, designed for intuitive notification management and activity tracking.
The user interface has received extensive refinement, including smoother transitions and new animations that enhance operational fluidity. Performance optimization claims a 30% improvement, providing faster app response and a more efficient multitasking experience.
Productivity-oriented features
Beyond aesthetics, HyperOS 3 brings tangible improvements to workflow. Features like iPhone-style call and SMS forwarding facilitate seamless device integration, which is helpful for professionals managing multiple lines or devices. The cumulative impact of these updates is a dramatically improved and efficient user experience - important for both business users and power users.
