    Xiaomi has been developing the second generation of HyperOS for some time. A line of code previously discovered by Xiaomitime hinted at the existence of HyperOS 2.0. Recent reports from China suggest that this version will be unveiled on October 10.

    Potential Release on Redmi K70 Ultra

    According to an image leak, the Redmi K70 Ultra (review) might receive the HyperOS 2.0 update as OS2.0.1.0.VNNCNXM on October 10, 2024. This implies that the second generation of HyperOS could make its debut on this date. While some might question if Xiaomi will introduce the new HyperOS on a Redmi device first, it’s plausible that the Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Pro could also be launched on the same day. Earlier rumors indicated that the Xiaomi 15 series might be the first to feature HyperOS 2.0.

    Expected Enhancements in HyperOS 2.0

    There are intriguing details about HyperOS 2.0 already circulating. It is expected to be based on both Android 14 and Android 15 and will likely be available on various Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO devices. From what is known, HyperOS 2.0 aims to enhance connectivity with other Xiaomi gadgets and includes a feature to detect hidden cameras. Lu Weibing, President, and General Manager of the Redmi and Xiaomi brands, also hinted that HyperOS 2.0 is significantly integrated with LLMs, potentially making it a more advanced AI-driven phone.

    The improved AI capabilities of HyperOS 2.0 could bring better voice recognition, enhanced photo and video editing, and personalized app suggestions, all designed to make Xiaomi devices more intuitive and user-friendly.

    Additional Features and UI Upgrades

    Beyond the AI enhancements, HyperOS 2.0 might utilize AI for features like ‘smart battery management’, improved charging, and other optimizations by learning from user behavior. Moreover, HyperOS 2.0 is rumored to offer a refreshed user interface design. Users can expect smoother animations than in the previous version, enhancing multitasking. As part of the UI overhaul, the new HyperOS introduces improved notification management and more home screen customization options, promising a better overall experience.

    Xiaomi Pad 7 Series Specs and Launch Timeline Revealed

    Xiaomi is preparing to introduce the eagerly awaited Pad 7 Series, following the success of the Pad 6 lineup. This new series is anticipated to include two variants: the Xiaomi Pad 7 and the Pad 7 Pro. The Pro version has recently been spotted on China’s 3C certification and Singapore’s IMDA database. Now, tipster DCS (Digital Chat Station) has shared some significant information about these forthcoming tablets.

    Xiaomi Pad 6s Pro Specifications

    According to a recent Weibo post by DCS, the Xiaomi Pad 7 is set to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, an 11-inch 144Hz 3K LCD display, and a robust 10,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging capability.

    Earlier leaks suggest that the Pad 7 Pro will come with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and a 144Hz OLED display. The battery size and charging speed are expected to remain consistent with those of the standard Pad 7. Additionally, DSC mentioned that both tablets will launch with HyperOS 2.0, which is slated to be released alongside the Xiaomi 15 series.

    Launch Timeline and Market Availability

    These tablets were initially rumored to be released in the third quarter of 2024, but they are now expected to be launched in October along with the Xiaomi 15 series. The initial launch will occur in the Chinese market, with a wider global release anticipated later. Since the Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro has already passed Singapore’s IMDA certifications, it is evident that Xiaomi plans to offer these tablets internationally in the future.

  • Xiaomi HyperOS 2.0 Development Spotted in Mi Code

    Xiaomi HyperOS 2.0 Development Spotted in Mi Code

    Xiaomi is making notable strides with its latest user interface, HyperOS. As development and refinement of HyperOS continue, fans and developers are closely monitoring changes in the code. Recently, during the review of HyperOS Android 15 Beta 3, an exciting discovery was made that indicates the forthcoming release of HyperOS 2.0.

    Xiaomi's Development of HyperOS 2.0

    The XiaomiTime team has uncovered intriguing details concerning HyperOS 2.0. This new interface will be based on Android versions 14 and 15 and is anticipated to be available on numerous Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO smartphones. While examining the system's code, a new line was identified that was absent in both HyperOS 1.5 and Android 15 Beta 2. The specific line of code is:

    .field public static HYPER_OS2:I = 0x0
    

    Though it appears simple, this line is a strong indication that Xiaomi is gearing up for the release of HyperOS 2.0. This suggests that the company is diligently working on the next major version of HyperOS and is optimizing to resolve issues in the current version.

    Transitioning from MIUI 15 to HyperOS 2.0

    Initially, Xiaomi intended to launch a new version of MIUI, termed MIUI 15. However, they later opted to introduce MIUI 15 as "HyperOS 1.0" instead. Due to this shift, traces of MIUI 15 code still linger in the system. These remnants might imply that Xiaomi is transitioning away from MIUI, fully adopting HyperOS, or viewing HyperOS 2.0 as MIUI 16.

    The findings about HyperOS 2 reinforce that Xiaomi is now concentrating on something beyond MIUI. The system codes no longer reference MIUI 15, instead highlighting the development of HyperOS 2.0.

    Embracing HyperOS

    This transition signifies the conclusion of MIUI, with Xiaomi fully embracing the HyperOS name and vision. By concentrating on HyperOS, Xiaomi aims to simplify the development of new software and deliver a superior experience across all its devices.

    As we await the official release of HyperOS 2.0, it is evident that Xiaomi has made significant advancements in the development of its operating system. Stay tuned for the latest updates on what to expect from Xiaomi’s next-generation user interface.

    Xiaomi HyperOS 2.0: Features, Release Date, and Expectations

    Xiaomi is gearing up for the upcoming release of Android 15 by developing a new version of its custom skin, HyperOS 2.0. This update, which is expected to be based on Android 15, promises a host of improvements, UI changes, and new features.

    What’s New in HyperOS 2.0?

    HyperOS, introduced last year, focused on minimalistic design and a connected ecosystem for Xiaomi devices. The new version is expected to enhance these aspects further. One of the rumored features for HyperOS 2.0 is the ability to scan for hidden cameras using WLAN signals, a feature not currently offered by any smartphone brand. If implemented, this would significantly enhance user privacy.

    Additionally, Xiaomi is expected to increase the virtual RAM (Memory Extension) capacity to 16GB, with a default setting of 6GB. This would allow for better multitasking by providing more space for active apps. However, not all Xiaomi devices will support the full 16GB due to hardware and storage limitations, likely reserving this feature for high-end and select mid-range phones.

    Redesigned Interface and New Features

    Leaked screenshots suggest that HyperOS 2.0 will feature a redesigned Settings homepage, offering a card-like experience instead of the traditional segmented layout. This new design aims to improve aesthetics and ensure smoother navigation.

    Another visual enhancement is the ripple effect when pressing volume keys, a feature inspired by the iOS 18 beta. This small but functional addition aims to improve user experience.

    A minor yet practical feature could be the option to disable the lock screen editor, which activates when you tap and hold an empty spot on the lock screen. This would allow users to avoid accidental activations, offering a more convenient user experience.

    While these are some leaked features, Xiaomi is likely to unveil more at the HyperOS 2.0 release. Alongside these exclusive features, users can expect new functionalities and improvements from Android 15, such as satellite messaging, theft detection lock, app archiving, and app pairs.

    HyperOS 2.0: When Is It Coming?

    Xiaomi has not officially announced a release date for HyperOS 2.0. However, leaks suggest it will be launched around October, the same month HyperOS 1.0 was released last year.

    For those eager to experience Android 15, the beta program is already available for several devices, including Xiaomi 14, Xiaomi 13T Pro, and Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro 12.4. Participating in the beta program allows users to test new features before the public release.

    Android 15 is currently in its final development phase, focusing on stability and bug fixes. The stable version is expected to be released in October, coinciding with the anticipated release of HyperOS 2.0.
