Xiaomi HyperOS 4 Update: Which Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO Phones Get It, and When

Xiaomi's HyperOS 4 is rolling out in China, and reports say the global rollout starts in early November 2026 and runs to December. Xiaomi has not published an India date. Here is what Xiaomi has confirmed, which phones are listed for each batch, and what is only reported.

Update, 9 November: Reports say Xiaomi began the global HyperOS 4 stable rollout on 3 November with the early-November batch. Xiaomi has not published an India date, and the update may reach Indian phones a little later than global ones.

What Xiaomi has confirmed

Xiaomi's own HyperOS 4 page, which covers mainland China only, shows these things:

• Beta rollout in China: the first batch went out on 14 August (Xiaomi 17 series, Redmi K90 series and the Pad 8 tablets). More batches followed on 27 August (including the Xiaomi 15 series and Redmi K90 Max) and 17 September (including the Redmi K100 and K80 series and the Mix Flip 2). Xiaomi says the lists and timings may be adjusted.
• New look: a "Soft Light Glass" design that adapts to the ambient colour, a flexible lock-screen clock, stacked notifications, resizable folders and widget stacking.
• Speed: in Xiaomi's tests on the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, 30 apps launch about 17.5% faster than on HyperOS 3, and the camera starts faster too.
• AI: Super XiaoAi 2.0 on Xiaomi's own MiMo model, with an expert mode on some phones. Some AI features are for China only.
• Chip limit: the full Soft Light Glass effect needs a Snapdragon 8 Elite or higher, a Dimensity 9500 or higher, or Xiaomi's XRing O1. Other phones get a simpler version.

Global rollout: which phones, in which batch

The batches below come from press reports of Xiaomi's global schedule. Xiaomi has not given exact dates for each phone, and the order inside a batch is not the order of release. Lists differ slightly between reports, so check your phone's Settings, then About phone, then System update.

Phones older than these, such as the Xiaomi 12 series and the Redmi Note 13 series, do not appear in any of the lists we saw. That does not confirm they are excluded, but it makes an update unlikely.

What about India?

Xiaomi has not announced an India date. One report says HyperOS 4 is already in beta on several Indian phones, including the Xiaomi 17, Xiaomi 15, Redmi Note 17 and Note 15 series and the POCO X8 and M8 series. It expects the stable version from November, starting with the Xiaomi 17 and 17 Ultra and then the Redmi Note 17 and POCO X8. That is a single report, and Xiaomi has not confirmed it. Reports also differ on whether HyperOS 4 is built on Android 17, and Xiaomi's own page does not say.

What to do

Back up your phone before you update, keep at least 10GB of free space and plug in the charger. Do not install rollout files from unknown websites. Wait for the official update to appear on your phone, which can take a few days after a batch starts. We will update this post when Xiaomi publishes the India schedule.
