🚀 HyperOS 2 Maintenance Ends as HyperOS 3 Global Launch Approaches
Development focus shifts entirely to the Android 15-based HyperOS 3 ecosystem.
🎯 End of Active Development for HyperOS 2
After months of active development, **Xiaomi has almost finalized the development of HyperOS 2**, the second generation of the company's custom operating system based on the HyperConnect ecosystem. According to the official issue tracker, Xiaomi has not made any new bug fixes or reports in the last 15 days, which means that the HyperOS 2 development cycle is approaching the end of its maintenance phase. In the meantime, **the company's attention has clearly shifted to HyperOS 3** and its global release in the near future.
📉 No Bug Fixes in Two Weeks
The in-house development spreadsheet used for HyperOS bug monitoring reveals that the most recent patches were installed **more than two weeks ago**. Since then, no new bugs have been reported and the progress of resolving active bugs has slowed significantly. This is a trend that indicates the stability of the software branch - a period in which extensive development work is completed and only essential maintenance remains.
🟢 The Rollout of HyperOS 3 Has Already Begun
Xiaomi today announced the launch of the China-stable **HyperOS 3**, which marks a significant step in the company's global software hierarchy. HyperOS 3 is based on **Android 15**, which brings all-new redesigned animations, an optimized control center, improved privacy features, and AI-powered features. Xiaomi’s official release states that the **global launch will begin this October**, starting with the **Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14T series** flagship devices.
✨ Key HyperOS 3 Improvements
The new Android 15 base brings several performance and feature enhancements:
🛡️ Security Updates for Retired Devices
Not all devices will be upgraded to HyperOS 3. Xiaomi will ensure security support for some models that stick with HyperOS 2 — especially those with a refresh rate that is one to two years old. Such devices will receive **periodic security patches** despite the lack of major feature improvements.
