Xiaomi’s REDMI K100 Pro series will be among the first devices to get the official HyperOS 4 update, according to REDMI product manager Hu Xinxin. The announcement follows the recent launch of the initial HyperOS 4 Beta recruitment phase covering models like the Xiaomi 17 and REDMI K90 series.
HyperOS 4 Beta Enrollment Now Open for Select Models
Earlier on August 13, Xiaomi started user recruitment for HyperOS 4 Beta, targeting flagship devices including the Xiaomi 17 and REDMI K90 series. This suggests the software is entering wider testing ahead of a stable rollout to more models.
Key Features and Compatibility of HyperOS 4
HyperOS 4 introduces new enhancements such as the “soft light glass” interface material and interactive lighting effects. These features will only activate on devices meeting specific hardware requirements:
- Snapdragon 8 Elite platform or higher on phones and tablets
- MediaTek Dimensity 9500 flagship chips or above
- XRING O1 3nm flagship processors or newer
Older devices or those with lower-end hardware will not support all the new visual effects due to performance limits.
Additional Context on HyperOS 4 Rollout
The update marks an important step in Xiaomi’s software evolution, with the REDMI K100 Pro series getting early access to the stable version. Meanwhile, a mysterious Xiaomi foldable phone model has appeared in HyperOS 4 Beta descriptions, possibly hinting at a new MIX Fold 5 device. Xiaomi’s VP Lu Weibing confirmed that there will be no separate HyperOS 4 launch event, with beta testing starting quietly on August 13.
