Xiaomi has now launched HyperOS 3 in China as its next major mobile software update. To recap, the company has offered its new update to eight devices so far in beta form, including the Pad 7 Pro (curr. $679 on Amazon). As it stands, the following devices are eligible to receive HyperOS 3 Beta updates in China:
- Redmi K80 Extreme Edition
- Redmi K80 Pro
- Xiaomi 15
- Xiaomi 15 Pro
- Xiaomi 15 Ultra
- Xiaomi 15S Pro
- Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro
- Xiaomi Pad 7S Pro 12.5
Moreover, over a dozen other devices will gain HyperOS 3 Beta access later this month. However, Xiaomi Adictos has discovered that quite a few existing smartphones are unlikely to receive Xiaomi's next OS update when it reaches stable status. For the time being, Xiaomi has not published a global eligibility list for now.
In lieu of that, Xiaomi Adictos has observed that six recent Redmi, Poco and Xiaomi smartphones will stop receiving updates later this month. Given that even security updates will end after this date, it seems improbable that any would make the move from HyperOS 2 to HyperOS 3. The list of devices that appear set to miss out on HyperOS 3 globally are as follows:
- Poco M5
- Redmi A1
- Redmi A1 Plus
- Xiaomi 11T
- Xiaomi 11T Pro
- Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE
