Xiaomi has only just started its global HyperOS 3 rollout. Nonetheless, the company is preparing to introduce HyperOS 3.1 in its home market. Unfortunately, over 20 devices are expected to miss out on HyperOS 3.1, including the Poco F5 Pro, numerous Redmi Note smartphones and older Xiaomi flagships too.

Xiaomi is now well underway with its HyperOS 3 rollout both globally and in China. To recap, the company undertakes different software release schedules in China than in other markets. For instance, the Poco X7 Pro recently joined the Poco F7 (curr. $519.99 on Amazon) by receiving HyperOS 3 globally but not in China.

Now, XiaomiTime reports that Xiaomi has already begun HyperOS 3.1 beta program recruitment for devices registered in its home market. Apparently, one of the main innovations that will distinguish HyperOS 3.1 from HyperOS 3 is an updated recent apps drawer. Drawing inspiration from Apple just as Hyper Island does from the Dynamic Island, the new recents drawer will be joined via refined memory management to improve animations and reduce app startup times.

Allegedly, only devices that have received the Android 16 version of HyperOS 3 are in line for HyperOS 3.1. By contrast, those running HyperOS 3 based on Android 15 will miss out on HyperOS 3.1 altogether. According to XiaomiTime, the list of devices that will remain on HyperOS 3 once Xiaomi finishes issuing stable HyperOS 3.1 builds exceeds 20 and includes older models like the Redmi Note 12 Turbo. The full list of devices reportedly ineligible to receive HyperOS 3.1 are as follows:

  • Poco F5 5G
  • Poco F5 Pro
  • Poco M6 Pro
  • Poco X6 Neo
  • Redmi 13C
  • Redmi K50 Ultra
  • Redmi K60
  • Redmi K60 Pro
  • Redmi Note 12 Turbo
  • Redmi Note 12T Pro
  • Redmi Note 13 5G
  • Redmi Note 13R Pro
  • Xiaomi 12
  • Xiaomi 12 Pro
  • Xiaomi 12S
  • Xiaomi 12S Pro
  • Xiaomi 12S Ultra
  • Xiaomi 12T
  • Xiaomi 12T Pro
  • Xiaomi Civi 3
  • Xiaomi Mix Fold 2
  • Xiaomi Pad 6 Max 14
