Xiaomi begins HyperOS 4 stable rollout in China

Overview

Xiaomi has transitioned HyperOS 4 from development to a stable rollout phase in China. Following the conclusion of its beta recruitment program, the company began distributing the stable version in batches starting October 15, 2026. The initial deployment targets the Xiaomi 17 series—including the 17 Ultra (Leica Edition), 17 Pro Max, 17 Pro, and 17—alongside the Redmi K100 Pro Max, K100 Pro, K90 Pro Max, and K90, as well as Xiaomi Pad 8 and Pad 8 Pro tablets.

A defining characteristic of HyperOS 4 is its foundation on Android 17, a strategic shift that bypasses Android 16. This decision impacts device compatibility, as smartphones currently running Android 16 will not receive the major update, including popular models like the Redmi Note 13 Pro 4G and Poco X6 5G. Additionally, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra Leica Edition is reportedly excluded from the new camera UI redesign due to specific licensing boundaries with Leica.

Visually, the update introduces a ‘Soft Light Glass’ or ‘Liquid Glass’ design language, utilizing translucent surfaces and blur effects to create a three-dimensional interface. Technically, the release features HyperCore technology to optimize RAM management and reduce battery consumption, with reports suggesting it can maintain approximately 28% more free memory after eight hours of intense use compared to HyperOS 3. While the current rollout is specific to the Chinese market, global stable builds are anticipated to follow between late 2026 and early 2027.
