Xiaomi launches its first smartphone AI operating system.
Right now, it's time to say goodbye to MIUI.
On October 17th, Lei Jun, the Chairman of Xiaomi Group, announced on Weibo that the new operating system of Xiaomi, Xiaomi HyperOS, has been officially packaged. The Xiaomi 14 series will be the first smartphones to be equipped with this system and have already been delivered to the factory for production.
It is reported that Xiaomi started exploring the Xiaomi HyperOS system in 2014 and officially began its development in 2017. Based on Xiaomi's self-developed Vela system (Xiaomi's embedded software platform for the Internet of Things) and the highly evolved Android system, Xiaomi HyperOS can solve the ecological connection barriers between different systems and protocols, enabling cross-device interconnection.
So far, Xiaomi has already had a smart ecosystem covering over 200 categories. The "People, Cars, and Homes" ecosystem is about to complete its closed loop. The newly released Xiaomi HyperOS takes a crucial step towards realizing the goal of "creating a people-centric, all-encompassing ecosystem operating system" and prepares for the future of "billions of devices, billions of connections" by providing a "universal base for interconnecting everything."
MIUI was born in 2010 and was the industry's first third-party mobile operating system based on deep optimization, customization, and development of the Android system. Since the birth of MIUI, it has been used on Xiaomi and Redmi phones. As of June 2023, the global monthly active users of MIUI reached 606 million, a year-on-year growth of 10.8%.
Lei Jun also stated that from this moment on, Xiaomi HyperOS will gradually replace MIUI, and the Xiaomi 14 series, which will be the first to be equipped with Xiaomi HyperOS, will be unveiled at the end of this month.
