Users of Xiaomi smartphones have received the most bitterly disappointing news concerning the HyperOS operating system. One of the leading providers of smartphones globally is Xiaomi. The firm had replaced its previous MIUI with the new HyperOS to match the market competition with newness and a refreshing shock-and-awe approach.
With this first version, HyperOS 1.0, the base of which turned out to be Android 13, now the approach of Xiaomi was terminally committed to design and functionality. But it had some unwelcome news.
HyperOS 2.0 Next Evolution; Excluded in the Older Devices
Last week, the company also announced a continuation of this route for devices currently running HyperOS 1.0; they will not be eligible for upgrading to HyperOS 2.0. In simple terms, all devices receiving HyperOS 1.0 will be awarded no other chance to upgrade to more major operating systems but will live to end with just that: HyperOS 1.0.
A Closer Look at the Implications
What disappointed many Xiaomi users, though, was that a couple of them had hoped for better support and continued updates, just like the case with the MIUI updates. Speaking, users had something to smile about when HyperOS released the 1.0 version, as it did offer very much more experience than MIUI 14. Some of the regular upgrades were privacy features, considered more enhanced than before, a more fluid User Experience, better battery management, and so on.
However, moving from MIUI to HyperOS, the changes are expected to continue with regular, important updates. This cycle break raises questions about the support longevity for users with relatively new devices to stay in the market.
Technical and Market Implications
There can be quite a number of reasons for the decision not to upgrade the various devices to HyperOS 2.0:
- Hardware Limitations: Some speculate that the hardware of older devices might not, in totality, equals syncing with the intended features and enhancements of HyperOS 2.0, one that would seriously be anticipated to be based on a new version of Android.
- Strategic Focus Shift: Xiaomi could be further biased towards the fresher devices, could be seen as a move selling the full capabilities of HyperOS 2.0, and at the end of the tunnel, trigger the flushing out of the market of the old.
- Software Management Challenges : Managing updates across too many models is complex and resource-intensive. So, companies mostly do away with updating the OS on older devices.
User Reactions and Future Prospects
On the one hand, the users of Xiaomi have reacted understandingly because they know the trouble related to maintaining device support over time. On the other hand, some feel more or less abandoned, expecting this from a massive brand like Xiaomi. This decision could potentially affect brand loyalty for people prioritizing getting through with consistent and long-term software updates. In other words, for the suffering, HyperOS 1.0 shall be maintained, with little updates and security patches in the near term, but they will lose the newly added features and improvements that HyperOS 2.0 brings.
While Xiaomi further develops HyperOS, all eyes are on the firm to know the strategy to support an ecosystem of devices in the future. Although HyperOS was innovative, how Xiaomi does the all-important part of transitioning and supporting its user base will hold the key to its staying afloat in the crazy smartphone market. It is now up to the current user base of HyperOS 1.0 to maximize their current set-up and perhaps wait for a new policy on updates from Xiaomi, which may bring fresh avenues for upgrade options.
When I’ll get hyperos on redmi 13c 5g
Please update to hyper os
A waste of money to the brand of Xiaomi brands 😭😭
A very big big big disappointment this brand 😞
damn i spent 700$ on buying Xiaomi 14 ! What do you mean by not getting hyper os upgrades wtf is that , they promised us about updates
When is the poco f5 get hyper os 2.0 ?
I find it disappointing that the company has made that decision. I have a redmi note 12 pro 4G and I am almost certain that my terminal will not receive the update. Since they have not updated it to android 14, being a terminal year 2023 should update until 2025. Xiaomi is behaving badly, after having been a more flexible brand towards updates. Simply tica change brand and look for other alternatives.
One of the reasons for using xuaomi is the continuous software updates… If you end up not getting software updates, boycott xiaomi!!!
Why so much speculation then? They put the youtubers to tell lies…. People trust in this brand and this is a good way to lose users….. I will sell the cell phone then if between now and December something worthwhile hasn’t come out 🙁.
Why doesn’t Xiaomi care about its users
And the youtubers advertising them…. It will be selling the cell phone…. 😊
My 11t pro device has not received the hyperos update for about two months, I would like you to answer why, regards
This is false. Xiaomi has announced the devices that are going to update to 2.0 including all xiami 14
You have forced to lock new phones. And you unlock it unofficially at a high cost. This bad news was added to the previous one. If you continue like this, you will lose users
Waste of money. I will never buy a Xiaomi phone again. This is why Apple is the behemoth. They support their devices even old ones. And Xiaomi doesn’t even support 1 -2 year old phones.
Crap Chinese scam company
We all know this isn’t true, their flagships on 1.0.*** etc will all continue to be updated as they’re inside the minimum guaranteed Android feature updates window.
So Xiaomi 13, 14 series will of course get updated for several more years.
I’d expect ageing Redmi devices from several years ago who DID get HyperOS 1.0 not to get 2.0 for example.
Anyone suddenly jumping up in arms based on completely unsubstantiated facts, with no proof needs a good slap. You’re what’s wrong with the world.
I don’t think this is legit news. There’s really no sources for this, this site often or should i say almost every article is just speculative articles. So unless theres no official word from Xiaomi, take this with big grain of salts.
I mean Xiaomi did released a list some months ago https://hyperosupdates.com/xiaomi-hyperos-2-0-eligible-devices-list-poco-redmi-xiaomi so take it easy with trusting of this page onl.y
Yes, they ruined my phone and now no update to fix it. I will leave Xiaomi and go back to Samsung
Are you out of your senses
It doesn’t even make sense,
I mean its so unrealistic, I can’t believe it and will not believe it, I mean a sane company will never do it with its users, don’t they care about business and stuff, are they here to torture its users? Its B.S.
What about HyperOS 2.0 on Redmi Note 14 4G? It’s quite sad but custom ROMs may still port it to old devices.
The Redmi note 10 S will receive HyperOs. It is what we expect. Thank you Xiaomi
I will personally advocate against buying Xiaomi phone. I currently have a Xiaomi Redmi note 13. If I don’t get upgrade considering the way it lags, I will be happy to conderm the product to the mud.
Knowing that my redmi note 12 pro +would only update only up to Android 14 and no more I will switch to Motorola as their devices bring 3 and even 4 years of update in Android.
We all know this isn’t true, their flagships on 1.0.*** etc will all continue to be updated as they’re inside the minimum guaranteed Android feature updates window.
So Xiaomi 13, 14 series will of course get updated for several more years.

Anyone suddenly jumping up in arms based on completely unsubstantiated facts, with no proof needs a good shake.
Send hyperOs mi 10T5G Pakistan
It is a DECEITFUL way to sell their misleading advertising this company gives signs of NOT RSTAR WELL, we do not have support, they take out and take out cell phones AS HIGH RANGE and within days or months and is already WIN MEDIUM, MANY LIES FOR CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE BEEN LOYAL TO THE BRAND A BIG INDICATOR THAT YOU HAVE TO CHANGE TO A MORE STABLE BRAND AND LESS LIES, I NEVER BELIEVED THIS DISASTER OF XIAOMI, A GREAT EMBARCADA NOT ALLOW THESE DECEPTIONS GOVERNMENTS SHOULD HELP CUSTOMERS AND PUT A STOP TO THESE UNGRATEFUL FALLACIES, AND SHOULD PRAY FOR THEIR LYING ADVERTISING ERRORS, END UP ENDING WITH THAT BRAND WITH WHICH WE WERE FAITHFUL BUYERS, AND AT THIS TIME I WILL MOVE TO ANOTHER BRAND MORE WOULD BE WITH REAL GUARANTEES THAT JUSTICE IS DONE ALL PIR VERNDER LARGE AMOUNTS MISLEADING.
Never any more products from Iaomi for me.
Trash website.
Xiaomi you are a stupid company I,m switching to another phone company your worthless
Xiaomi you are a stupid company I,m switching to another phone company
Stupid brand
Liers you don’t even care about your costumers
Now let me clarify something about this. I think it says that the hyper os version 1.0 will not receive updates like improvement in this version of 1.0 . All the phones which are eligible for Android 15 will receive hyperos 2.0 .
No biggie. Who needs more bloatware and those awful ads shoved down their throat by Xiaomi. The Android 15 update is way more efficient.
It will create a big effect on xiaomi’s sale in the world. Xiaomi should change its planning not to provide updates. I purchased my Redmi Note 12 just 1 month ago and I am unable to get updates. Samsung is great, I will change my phone with Samsung who gives updates regularly, not like Xiaomi.
Sadly, your device won’t be getting the update.
Will xiaomi 14 ultra get hyperos 2.0 if not im gonna kill this brand
@sabir. I read another article saying that devices running sd8g2 and above SOCs will get the update so no need to worry but for others i dont think this is fair
It’s so okay with me. As long as the device works, there’s update or not, it’s not important for me.
XIAOMI says the old models will not get HyperOS 2.0. every year some old device are added in EOL list. It’s from starting from every company. Why all are behaving like a fool or an uneducated people. If you people really care about updates then buy stock Android or pixel. No other company wiill give you updates every month.
Per REDMI NOTE 10 PRO il supporto è già finito…E’ dal 18 Dicembre 2023 che non riceve più nulla il bello che il supporto finiva a marzo di quest’anno.
DELUSIONE.
Do not understand the fuss. HyperOS is not that great to begin with. It’s still looks and feel like miui. Just a simple name change only. Miui still works better for some users.
The article writer and editor cannot even read the source material. for xiaomi phone mi 11 will get hyperos upgrade,
I truly cant believe this.. why is xiaomi betrying us after offering us the update and making it seem like the next big thing only to disappoint us. I thought this company wasn’t gonna adopt apples disappointing traits
There is a list of the devices that are going to support HyperOS 2.0.Check the hyperosupdates site
Last year was the same, this apply only for devices that android 13 was last android update.
If you are stuck with android 14, like me, you will most likely get hyper os2.
Everybody with android 15 will get new update for sure.
Thats the way i see it….
Shihtttttt bro I spent so much money on Xiaomi my tab my phone my whole life is xiaomi😭 does this mean I’m doomed. Life might have just hit my money hard
Instead of getting hyper os2.0 I want to go back tu miui because hyper os is not supporting game..it’s very laggy..hot..miui12 don’t have that kind of issue..so please Xiaomi let us go back to miui..
