Devices Included in the Beta Process Have Been Determined

While the company states that users accepted into the beta program will receive updates over-the-air (OTA), it reminds users that additional verification steps will be required via a Xiaomi account for some special versions.
Scope to be Expanded on September 17th
Exciting developments regarding HyperOS 4 will not be limited to just the first set of devices. Xiaomi plans to expand the test program to a wider user base on September 17th. From this date, the Xiaomi 17T, 17T Pro, 15, and 15 Ultra models will also be included in the beta program.
This expansion decision shows the brand’s desire to test the new interface optimizations on more hardware.
Manual Actions Required for System Reversal
One of the most important considerations for users is the process of reverting from the HyperOS 4 beta version to the stable HyperOS 3 version.
Xiaomi emphasizes that this process cannot be done with an automatic update and users will need to manually flash the firmware to their devices. This situation makes it mandatory for users to make necessary backups beforehand to avoid data loss. While the software development process continues, any bug reports will help the brand improve the quality of the software.
