Xiaomi has gone the way of Huawei and introduced its own operating system for everything. It's called HyperOS.

Here's What We Know

If Huawei created HarmonyOS because of US sanctions, Xiaomi did this one voluntarily. But HyperOS, like HarmonyOS, is by and large not an operating system, but just an additional shell on top of Android.

HyperOS has become even more reminiscent of iOS. Developers of the Chinese company claim that the redesign of applications, notification panel and control centre allowed to provide an improved user experience.

The new operating system provides fast connectivity between different devices. For example, a user will be able to display notifications that come to a smartphone on a TV, or use the phone's camera to make a video call on a laptop.

HyperOS takes up almost 9GB of storage space. Xiaomi claims that this is the minimum size of the software. This has been achieved through deep optimisation of the system.

The Hypermind feature is used to control gadgets from Xiaomi's ecosystem. However, it is unlikely to appear in the global version of HyperOS, which is due in the first half of next year.
