After 13 years, Xiaomi says goodbye to MIUI and hello to HyperOS – Xiaomi

In a message on X (formerly Twitter), the company confirmed that the new operating system will become available globally and will debut on the upcoming Xiaomi 14 series. HyperOS will also gradually replace Xiaomi’s MIUI, which has been around for 13 years.

Based on preliminary and scant information, HyperOS is designed to serve a wide range of Xiaomi products other than smartphones. The company says the new platform will connect its entire product ecosystem across 200 categories, including smart home devices, upcoming electric vehicles, and more. In essence, Xiaomi is following in Huawei’s footsteps with HarmonyOS, which is what powers the company’s mobile devices, which are also based on Android.

“In 2014, as our IoT division began to take shape, we began an exploratory development process. In 2017, the research and development of a new system to support all environmental devices and applications with a comprehensive system-level framework officially began. This is our pursuit,” the CEO wrote. Xiaomi Lei Jun in a post on Weibo.

HyperOS “is based on the integration of advanced Android and the Vela system developed by Xiaomi itself, completely rewriting the infrastructure and preparing a common foundation for the Internet of Everything for tens of billions of devices and connections in the future,” John explained.

Although the company mentioned that HyperOS will initially appear in the Xiaomi 14 series, no image of it has been released and we have no details about the new features it brings. We assume the company will reveal more information when it unveils the new flagship phones later this month in China.
