Xiaomi HyperOS 3: Key features

The HyperOS 3 update brings HyperIsland, Xiaomi’s take on Apple’s Dynamic Island. It highlights key notifications and lets users follow live activities straight from the home screen. Beyond alerts, it can also display charging speed and other real-time device information, aiming to make multitasking smoother.

 

The new HyperAI suite adds multiple AI-powered tools. It includes smart screen recognition, the ability to adjust the tone and style of written messages, and real-time audio enhancements. Features like AI Speech Recognition offer clearer sound, instant transcription, and concise summaries of recordings.

 

Search has also been integrated with AI support. With AI Search, users can quickly summarise online results, locate content stored on the device, and receive AI-generated responses to direct questions. The Gallery Search function further categorises images into ten groups, such as food or scenery, for easier retrieval.

Visual customisation is another focus. The update introduces AI Dynamic Wallpapers and an AI Cinematic Lock Screen, allowing static images to be turned into animated backgrounds. Alongside these additions, Xiaomi has refreshed the home screen design with this Android 16-based interface update.
