This refreshed icon is indicative of Xiaomi’s efforts to bring visual continuity to its ecosystem ahead of when the advanced features of Camera 6.0 will be rolled out to all of its devices with the release of HyperOS 2.2.

dear team MIUI IS BETTER THAN HYPER OS LOTS OF FEATURE IN MIUI 12
MIUI for mid range phone and hyperOS for premium phone.Hyper OS is not good for entry level and mid range phone.plus I really don’t khow how after update I can use my phone for only 18hr with internet off. OS is not good.
i dont like HyperOS and i’m still using MIUI 14. every update it makes more buggy at slows down the phone. it’s just like downgrading rather than upgrading.
