Xiaomi developing its own operating system, to compete with Huawei’s HarmonyOS and Google

Yes—Xiaomi has its own operating-system initiative, HyperOS, announced in October 2023. Xiaomi describes it as software for connecting personal devices, cars, and smart-home products; the sources reviewed do not establish that it is a separate new system explicitly launched to compete with Huawei’s HarmonyOS and Google’s Android.

HyperOS has since progressed through HyperOS 2 and HyperOS 3. Here is what Xiaomi says the system is, how it has developed, and what the available evidence does—and does not—show about comparisons with rival platforms.

What is Xiaomi HyperOS?

Xiaomi introduced HyperOS in October 2023 as part of its “Human × Car × Home” strategy. In its November 2023 third-quarter results announcement, Xiaomi called it “a human-centric operating system designed and tailored to connect personal devices, cars, and smart home products in a smart ecosystem.” That is Xiaomi’s own description, not an independent assessment.

Xiaomi’s 2023 annual report says HyperOS consolidated the underlying operating systems MIUI, Vela, Mina, and CarOS into one solution. The company described its core as self-developed Xiaomi Vela with deep customization of Linux, and listed performance optimization, cross-device connectivity, proactive intelligence, security, and an open platform as goals.

How has HyperOS developed?

Version or milestone What Xiaomi reports Evidence and caveat
HyperOS announcement, October 2023 Introduced as a foundation for Xiaomi’s Human × Car × Home ecosystem. Xiaomi’s third-quarter 2023 results announcement describes the system’s intended scope and goals.
HyperOS consolidation Xiaomi says it brought MIUI, Vela, Mina, and CarOS together into HyperOS. Xiaomi’s 2023 annual report also gives company-reported processor-platform and file-system figures.
HyperOS 2 Described as an operating system for the Human × Car × Home ecosystem, with HyperConnect as a cross-device connectivity framework. Xiaomi’s 2024 annual report. This description does not by itself establish how well features work across devices in practice.
HyperOS 3 Described as an AI operating-system foundation for personal devices, with system-level data integration and cross-device task coordination. Xiaomi’s 2025 annual report. Availability and features depend on device and region.

What performance and adoption figures has Xiaomi reported?

Xiaomi’s 2025 annual report describes internal comparisons by Xiaomi Laboratories between HyperOS 3 and HyperOS 2 on Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Ultra devices. The company reported 4% lower CPU load, 10% improved energy efficiency, 18.9% lower window-animation frame-drop rates, and up to 60% lower desktop-icon rendering load. Xiaomi says the figures were averaged across multiple tests and that actual results may vary with test conditions. They are company-reported comparisons between HyperOS versions, not tests against HarmonyOS or Android.

How does HyperOS compare with HarmonyOS and Android?

The available Xiaomi sources establish HyperOS’s intended ecosystem scope and describe Xiaomi’s own software development. They do not provide independent, like-for-like evidence that HyperOS is technically or commercially superior to Huawei’s HarmonyOS or Google’s Android.
