First global Xiaomi smartphones start getting HyperOS

First global Xiaomi smartphones are starting to get the HyperOS update. First in line seems to be the Xiaomi 13T Pro, as the update has started popping up for consumers in Europe. Do note that the Xiaomi 13 Pro units in India and Greece also seem to be getting the update, but we’ll focus on the one that is arriving to more countries already (the Xiaomi 13T Pro).

The very first Xiaomi smartphones are starting to get HyperOS update

Last month, the company promised that the update is coming to at least 8 devices in Q1 2024. The Xiaomi 13T Pro is the first line, and the software version we’re looking at here is 1.0.3.0.EMLEUXM. Before you update, please make sure to have at least 6GB of free storage on the device.

This update does deliver the December 2023 security patch, in addition to all the changes HyperOS has to offer. The phone will notify you that the update is available, but you can also check manually via the settings.

So, what’s new? Well, the changelog has been shared by Mishaal Rahman, and there are plenty of changes to find there. Not everything is listed, of course, but the main changes are noted there.

There are plenty of changes coming, some of them are listed in the official changelog

Optimized performance is noticed, along with dynamic thread priority adjustment and dynamic task cycle evaluation. That should ensure optimal performance and power efficiency.

The storage refresh technology is also mentioned. That should help with network selection and connection quality. Some design changes are mentioned, as well as “new animation language”. Xiaomi also says that “natural colors bring vibrancy and vitality to every corner of your device”.

There is also a new system font in action, and a redesigned Weather app too. Some notification changes have also been made, and some of those you may not like, as the app icons in the status bar are now limited.

Lock screen has some additional options now, and multitasking is now “even more straightforward and convenient with an upgraded multi-window interface.”.
