Xiaomi has released a new HyperOS 3 report, and the news is pleasant once again: the company is closing bugs rather than creating new ones. The latest weekly overview of fixed bugs covers the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, Xiaomi 17 Pro Max, Xiaomi 17 Pro flagships, and earlier models down to the Xiaomi 15. The most notable item on the list is the elimination of camera lags and freezes — and the camera remains the main highlight of the brand’s top smartphones.

Xiaomi fixes bugs in HyperOS 3. What’s new this time?

What Was Fixed in the HyperOS 3 Update

Xiaomi published the report in the official Xiaomi Community, listing specific issues and the models on which they were resolved. This time, bug fixes on Xiaomi once again primarily addressed the camera, heating, and performance. Here’s what made it into the latest list:

  • Xiaomi 17 Ultra (HyperOS 3.0.306.0) — camera lags and freezes in certain shooting scenarios were eliminated.
  • Xiaomi 17 Pro Max (HyperOS 3.0.306.0) — excessive body heating under certain loads was fixed.
  • Xiaomi 17 Pro (HyperOS 3.0.305.0) — camera lags and performance drops were fixed.
  • Xiaomi 17 Max (HyperOS 3.0.304.0) — touch response in Smart Assistant was corrected.
  • Xiaomi 15S Pro (HyperOS 3.0.301.0) — disappearing marks in the album after saving edited photos were restored.
  • Xiaomi 15 (HyperOS 3.0.301.0) — missing pop-up notifications for voice and video calls were fixed.
  • REDMI K90 Pro Max (HyperOS 3.0.303.0) — disappearing previews on the video thumbnail page in the gallery were removed.

In short, the main focus of this HyperOS update is camera stability. And that makes sense: camera issues cause the loudest failures. Fixing shooting lags on the Xiaomi 17 Ultra and 17 Pro is especially important, since the camera is exactly what people pay extra for when buying a flagship.

What Users Are Complaining About in HyperOS 3

Xiaomi honestly noted that some bugs are still being worked on. Among them are incorrect display of train information in HyperIsland on the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max, a freezing floating window on the Xiaomi 17 after ending a video call, and Game Turbo malfunctions with upscaling and frame interpolation on the REDMI K80 Pro. The developers promise to close these issues in one of the upcoming reports.

There are still many bugs, but Xiaomi is working hard to fix them promptly

As before, the company emphasized: the listed smartphones are only the models on which the new HyperOS was tested. If the same bug is reproduced on other Xiaomi, REDMI, or POCO devices, the fix will reach them in future builds as well.

When Will the HyperOS 3 Update Roll Out to Everyone

The good news is that Xiaomi has confirmed the bug fixes at the code level. The bad news is that HyperOS patches first roll out in China through the beta channel and only then reach global firmware. So owners of global versions will have to wait a bit — according to the company, the fixes will appear within the coming weeks.

To make sure you don't miss the update, go to "Settings," then "About Phone," then "System Update."

No action is required — the patch will arrive over the air automatically when it’s ready for your region. The report itself shows that Xiaomi works on system stability regularly.

When Will HyperOS 4 Come Out and on Which Smartphone

While Xiaomi is polishing the current version, the next one is already on the horizon. And here’s an interesting twist: HyperOS 4 may debut not on the expected flagship at all. According to fresh data, the first device to receive the firmware won’t be the Xiaomi 18, but rather the brand’s foldable smartphone.

It’s already known which smartphone will be the first to get HyperOS 4

So if you’re waiting for a major system leap, the next big premiere will be there, and the current HyperOS 3 patches are more about tidying things up before the generational shift.
