Xiaomi will announce HyperOS soon, a replacement for MIUI. The company announced that a couple of days ago. Well, thanks to leaked screenshots, we can now get our first look at Xiaomi’s upcoming HyperOS Android UI.
Leaked screenshots give us the very first look at Xiaomi’s new HyperOS Android UI
Just to be clear, HyperOS will completely replace MIUI, on a global scale. This is not just a UI for the Chinese market. It is said that it will gradually replace MIUI all over the globe. It looks like Xiaomi is looking to retire the MIUI name.
HyperOS will debut on the Xiaomi 14 series, which is tipped to arrive before the end of the month. That being said, if you take a look at the gallery below the article, you’ll be able to see Xiaomi’s upcoming UI.
Seven screenshots were shared in total, and we can see the lockscreen area, along with some lock screen customization. The homescreen itself is shown, and the quick toggles menu. On top of that, the weather app and calendar apps are both on display here. Do note that these screenshots seem to be taken from the Chinese version of HyperOS.
The leaked screenshots show us a UI very similar to MIUI 14
Those of you who are familiar with MIUI, will immediately notice that new lock screen customization options are available here. That is something MIUI does not offer. This seems to be inspired by iOS, as reported a couple of days ago.
You will be able to choose between various templates for the clock, font, and widget options. The control center looks very similar to what we got with MIUI 14, and the same goes for the home screen. Even the app icons look rather similar to MIUI 14’s app icons.
In fact, almost everything shown in these screenshots reminds us a lot of MIUI 14. It is worth noting that these screenshots are taken from an early beta build of HyperOS, so the design could change by the time the Xiaomi 14 series launches.
Speaking of which, that will allegedly happen on October 31, at least based on a leaked image. The global launch will likely occur in Q1 2024.
