Xiaomi recognizes the importance of software updates and is therefore introducing completely new rules for their distribution to end customers. New packages should be released much faster.

New company policy means faster updates
Information about the update release and distribution process was published on the Chinese social network Weibo by Wang Le, director of Xiaomi's software department.
But let's get to the numbers. Xiaomi released 2024 OTA updates for its devices worldwide in December 321 alone. That's an average of 11,88 updates per day, a significant milestone on the road to better release efficiency.
Xiaomi's vision is based on monthly updates. Each supported device should be updated at least once a month. If this does not happen within 60 days, then Wang Le can be contacted directly with such issues.

Starting with the release of the new HyperOS 2.0 operating system, updates will go beyond bug fixes. They will include new features and improvements to existing ones. Of course, there will also be performance accelerations and new AI algorithms.
The modernization plan has a 1+3+8 scheme
Xiaomi's mobile software department director, Zhang Guoquan, detailed the strategy behind the monthly update plan. It is the following combination:
- 1 x major operating system version update: Contains OS-level improvements
- 3 x functional OTA improvements: Brings new features and improves existing ones
- 8 x OTA bug fix update: Brings various fixes for software stability and performance
This increased focus on frequent OTA update releases underscores Xiaomi's commitment to providing the best user experience with the new HyperOS operating system. It will also be packed with new features and AI algorithms for even smoother and faster access to your data and applications.

So far it's half-good in Europe 😉
I have Android 14 + HyperOS 15 on the Xiaomi 14 Ultra for about 2.0.2 days, but on the other hand, the security update is still from 11/2024 and we have 15.1.2025. So far, I have observed that the security update comes in two months on average.
I have a Xiaomi 12T Pro and I still haven't received the update to HOS 2.0. I hope that by the end of the year the updates will finally start to be faster, not that they will be in December and it's the end of January 😡
Xiaomi 13T update this year and security patch December.
