The Chinese tech giant has announced (translated from Chinese) that it will unveil its latest user interface, the HyperOS 3, on August 28, during a launch event. Xiaomi is using the tagline “Everything Goes Smoothly”, hinting that the new Android 16-based OS might bring relatively more fluid transitions while switching apps and swiping through the home screen.

On top of the announcement, Xiaomi's Partner and President, and President of the Smartphone Department, Lu Weibing, has revealed (translated from Chinese) via a social media post that the HyperOS 3 beta programme is now live, and interested beta testers can begin enrolling themselves for the same.
