Xiaomi started rolling out the Android 15-based HyperOS update to the POCO M6 and Redmi 13 a few ago. Usually, the initial release is for Mi Pilot members to preview the build and see if developers have missed any bug. The idea is to contain any serious issues, and it seems the company did the right thing with the latest update.
