Emir BardakçıOn the eve of HyperOS 2, Xiaomi has continued introducing advanced features for Chinese users. One of the more interesting introductions in XiaoAI-only in China-is an all-new feature called Power Button shortcut. This new feature makes it look and work, for all intents and purposes, like iOS 18’s updated Siri animation. Adding freshness and dynamism, it enriches those who use XiaoAI for their smart assistant needs.
Let’s dive in a little deeper to understand what this new power button XiaoAI animation adds to an already rich feature set of HyperOS 2.
Power Button XiaoAI Animation: Inspired from iOS 18
Starting XiaoAI in HyperOS 2-just by a press and hold of the power button-triggers an about-beautiful animation takeover of the screen. This is pretty much like the animation of Siri in iOS 18. It brings in a special, alive design that really adds something in look and feel to interacting with your virtual assistant:
- Flash in from screen edges: A subtle flash of light glides in from the edges of the computer screen, presenting a sleek and futuristic visual effect that immediately captures the attention of its viewer.
- Three Buttons with Gradient Background: After the flash, at the bottom should be a transparent pink-colored gradient as the base for three control buttons that enable users to easily navigate into various XiaoAI functionalities.
- Water Droplet Effect: If this wasn’t enough, a water droplet effect transcends onto the screen to actually simulate how the water would naturally be touched, further enhancing the feel of the feature.
It’s all about animation for making the interaction with XiaoAI more interactive, hence granting the users who want a more dynamic assistant experience with a **fluid and graphically beautiful interface.
HyperOS 2’s Expanding AI Features
The above XiaoAI animation from Xiaomi only represents a fraction of the AI-driven enhancements coming to radically redesign what it’s calling HyperOS 2. Others include AI camera tools, enhanced photo and video editing, and improved speech recognition that fleshes out Xiaomi’s smart assistant to be more responsive to complex queries. Besides, XiaoAI continues to enjoy very close integration with Xiaomi’s smart ecosystem, allowing users to easily control smart home devices and obtain information only now with a more fashionable and attractive interface.
HyperOS 2 Enhances XiaoAI’s Visual Appeal It’s shaping up that HyperOS 2 will be a major update for Xiaomi users-be it in terms of performance and security improvements, but also visual enhancements such as the new XiaoAI animation when opened via the power button. The iOS 18-like visual elements, such as the flash from the edges, the gradient with control buttons, and the water droplet effect, raise the user experience to a whole new level when interacting with XiaoAI. Since HyperOS 2 is already being deployed, there are even more AI-powered features, and visual improvements keep pushing the edge in mobile software design.
