Xiaomi has started rolling out the stable HyperOS 3 update, based on Android 16, to global Xiaomi 15 Ultra units. The update has reached a review unit for the European market with build number 3.0.5.0.WOAEUXM. The over-the-air package measures 8.9 GB, requiring a fast network connection for efficient download to avoid extended times.
The changelog details numerous improvements, including performance enhancements across the system, refined visuals, a redesigned home-screen grid, a cleaner status bar, unified rounded corners throughout the interface, and optimizations for built-in applications. These changes deliver on Xiaomi’s commitments for HyperOS 3.
New cross-platform features include screen mirroring to an iPad, support for opening multiple phone apps in adjustable windows on a Mac, and the ability to unlock the Xiaomi 15 Ultra using Touch ID, Face ID, or a password from an iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
Security receives an upgrade with advanced data protection now using post-quantum encryption to safeguard personal data.
The rollout process may span a few days before reaching all eligible devices. Xiaomi 15 Ultra owners who have not yet received the update notification should wait, as it will arrive progressively.
