Xiaomi has started rolling out a new major update in China for eligible phones. The HyperOS 2.2 is a point upgrade that brings new features, system optimizations, bug fixes, and more. Like HyperOS 2.1, the update seems limited to premium phones. Currently, the update is rolling out in China, but we expect a global rollout in the coming weeks.
Xiaomi HyperOS 2.2 update: features
One of the reasons Xiaomi switched to HyperOS was to improve its Android skin stability. Also, animation, which users complained about MIUI, has gotten better. Irrespective of the improvements, each new release focuses on making animation even better.
With HyperOS 2.2, Xiaomi has further improved animation by optimizing the interruption animation effect when entering the secondary page of the application and others.
System animation
Optimize the interruption animation effect when entering the secondary page of the application. Optimize the interruption animation effect when the application jumps. Optimize the interruption animation effect when closing the horizontal screen application.
System
Newly added: Desktop wallpaper supports blur effect optimization, and some classic page styles are updated.
Lock screen
New Oriental aesthetic lock screen template optimization Support setting fingerprint unlocking animations such as butterfly, light wave, vortex, etc.
System Navigation
Optimize the shortcut function entry of the system navigation mode page in the desktop settings.
Status bar, Notification bar
Added support for custom display optimization for some status bar icons Custom notifications support unfolding optimization Signal HD icon is no longer permanently displayed in the status bar.
We understand the update is still in beta, meaning only a few users are eligible. We expect a wider availability in the coming weeks after a successful preview. Hence, if you encounter any problems using the preview, use the Xiaomi community app to report the issue to developers.
Xiaomi HyperOS 2.2 update: Phones
Xiaomi will release the HyperOS 2.2 update to a handful of phones, but it seems to be testing the build at the moment. It will take a few weeks to release the update to all eligible phones before they focus on HyperOS3, which will be based on Android 16.
So far, the Xiaomi HyperOS 2.2 update has only arrived for the latest flagship phones. The update is rolling out with version numbers OS2.0.200.7.VOCCNXM for the Xiaomi 15 and OS2.0.200.1.VOBCNXM for the Xiaomi 15 Pro.
