Xiaomi has widened the HyperOS 3 rollout, but patience is still required: the Android 16‑based update is arriving first on Chinese units, with global releases typically lagging by about a month.
Which devices are in this wave?
This round emphasizes 2023 flagships and a selection of Redmi Note models. Leading the list are the Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 and the Xiaomi 13 family, alongside several Redmi Note phones spanning recent years.
- Xiaomi Mix Fold 3
- Xiaomi 13, 13 Pro, 13 Ultra
- Redmi Note 15 Pro / 15 Pro+ (China)
- Redmi Note 14 Pro / 14 Pro+ 5G
- Redmi Note 13 Pro and 13 Pro+
The update is being pushed in batches rather than all at once, so expect a staggered arrival depending on region and carrier approvals. For example, the Xiaomi 13 trio in China is already on the schedule, while global Xiaomi 13 models are likely to receive HyperOS 3 around January. Some global Redmi Note variants may get it sooner or later depending on certification timing.
Owners of Poco phones should note that Poco follows its own HyperOS 3 timetable, separate from Xiaomi and Redmi rollouts.
If you rely on a carrier-branded or global device, the safest route is to check Xiaomi’s official channels or your phone’s built-in updater for the exact timing.
Under the hood, HyperOS 3 is built on Android 16 and brings Xiaomi’s refreshed UI, system-level refinements, performance tweaks, and updated privacy tools — the expected combination of stability and polish with a major Android-based upgrade.
