Xiaomi has announced a new operating system called HyperOS. The company CEO Lei Jun calls Xiaomi HyperOS the result of “years of collective work”. He revealed the HyperOS will be officially debuting on the Xiaomi 14 series. But, what happens to MIUI then? Let’s find out.
Will HyperOS replace MIUI?
We have been hearing rumours of a new Xiaomi OS called MiOS for some time and also come across newly registered trademarks, viz., ‘Xiaomi Pengpai’ and ‘Xiaomi Hyper’. Now we know it is called HyperOS.
Jun has confirmed on Weibo that HyperOS will “gradually succeed MIUI“. As already mentioned, the Xiaomi 14 series will be the first to get HyperOS. He mentions that the Xiaomi 14 series is under production and has already got HyperOS as the software.
Perhaps, gradually HyperOS will be the default operating system in all Xiaomi phones and tablets. It would be interesting to see if HyperOS updates match the changes to the Android version.
Xiaomi could take a leaf out of Vivo’s playbook whereby it could launch phones with two different operating systems for different markets. Vivo keeps its Origin OS exclusive to Mainland China and ships Funtouch OS in global markets including India.

It could also be that HyperOS is just a new exclusive branding for Xiaomi’s software in its home market. We should know more details soon.
In the meantime, MIUI 15 is officially confirmed to come in the Redmi K60 Ultra. Let’s see if Xiaomi choose to change the OS for that device too.
Xiaomi HyperOS release details
When an X user asked Lei Jun about the global release of HyperOS, the latter replied, “Stay Tuned“. This doesn’t confirm its international availability but insinuates a possibility.
Xiaomi 14 series is expected to launch in November and along with it, we shall see the official unveiling of HyperOS.
