Xiaomi has laid out, in advance of any firm dates, a map of who will receive its next software generation, HyperOS 4, across the phones and tablets it sells under the Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO names. Newer hardware goes first in early November, older devices follow through the second half of the month and into December, and a handful of earlier models are left behind entirely. It is the ordinary rhythm of a company keeping its promises to owners of machines it has already sold, with the quiet reminder that a window is not the same thing as a delivery.
HyperOS 4 Global Rollout Schedule: Xiaomi Lays Out November and December Device Waves
The month a device appears under is a window rather than a promise.
Mark
So what is this announcement, in plain terms?
Mimi
A calendar of sorts. Xiaomi sorted its global devices into November, late November and December for HyperOS 4, newest hardware first.
Mark
Who goes first?
Mimi
The Xiaomi 17 line, the Redmi Note 15 family, some POCO M-series phones and the Pad 8 tablets.
Luke
But there are no dates, right? Just months.
Mimi
Right. Xiaomi says the schedule has no exact release dates, and availability varies by region.
Luke
Then I'd treat the month as a target, not a guarantee. The reporting doesn't say how Xiaomi will handle slippage.
Mark
What about older phones?
Mimi
Some are cut. The Redmi K60 Pro, Redmi Note 13 Pro+, Redmi K70 Pro and POCO X6 5G won't get it.
Luke
Worth noting the source doesn't explain why those were dropped, so any reason would be guesswork.
Mark
So what should an owner do?
Mimi
Find their device on the list, then check system settings now and then as the rollout proceeds.
O Pulso
- Owners of recent Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO devices are waiting to learn whether their phone or tablet is on the list at all.
- The plan sorts over fifty devices into three windows, so a single brand's customers may find themselves split across months.
- Several older models, including the Redmi K60 Pro and POCO X6 5G, have been cut from the update entirely, leaving their owners without a path forward.
- Because no exact dates were given and regional availability will vary, the rollout is landing as a gradual, uneven wave rather than a single moment.
Xiaomi has laid out, in advance of any firm dates, a map of who will receive its next software generation, HyperOS 4, across the phones and tablets it sells under the Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO names. Newer hardware goes first in early November, older devices follow through the second half of the month and into December, and a handful of earlier models are left behind entirely.

Xiaomi has published its global schedule for HyperOS 4, and for anyone holding one of its phones or tablets, the first question is simply when the update will arrive. The answer comes in three windows: early November, the second half of November, and December.
The first wave goes to the newest hardware, including the Xiaomi 17 series, the Redmi Note 15 family, several POCO M-series phones and the Xiaomi Pad 8 tablets. The second half of November reaches back a generation to the Xiaomi 15 and Redmi Note 17 lines, along with a large group of POCO devices and a run of tablets. December is the longest stretch, covering established models such as the Xiaomi 14 and 13 series, the Redmi Note 14 range and a wide set of older POCO and Redmi Pad tablets.
The schedule is not a promise of exact days. Xiaomi has not published firm release dates, regional availability will differ, and the rollout will be gradual, so two owners of the same device may see the update days or weeks apart. Some older phones were left off entirely, including the Redmi K60 Pro and POCO X6 5G, and their owners will not receive HyperOS 4.
For everyone else, the advice is to check system update settings now and then as the coming weeks unfold. The next thing to watch is whether devices arrive within their assigned month.
Xiaomi has put out its global rollout plan for HyperOS 4, a list that sorts phones and tablets from the Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO families into three windows: early November, the second half of November, and December. For anyone holding one of those devices, the list answers the first question, which is roughly when to expect the update.
The first wave in November goes to the newest hardware. On the Xiaomi side that means the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, Xiaomi 17, Xiaomi 17T Pro and Xiaomi 17T. The Redmi Note 15 family is in it, covering the Pro Plus 5G, Pro 5G, Pro, the 5G and the standard model. So are the Redmi 17 5G, Redmi 17, Redmi 17C 5G, Redmi 15C 5G and Redmi 15C. POCO's entries are the M8 Pro, M8, C95 Pro and C85. The Leica Leitzphone powered by Xiaomi is listed too, along with the Xiaomi Pad 8 and Pad 8 Pro tablets.
From the second half of November the plan reaches back a generation and across more of the mid-range. The Xiaomi 15 Ultra, 15, 15T Pro and 15T are named, as are four Redmi Note 17 models: the Pro Max 5G, Pro 5G, 5G and standard. POCO's group is the largest of the wave: F9 Ultra, F9 Pro, F7 Ultra, F7 Pro, F7, X8, X7 Pro and the X7 Pro Iron Man Edition. Tablets include the Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro, Pad 7 and Pad Mini, the Redmi Pad 2 Pro 5G and Pad 2 Pro, and the POCO Pad X1 and Pad M1.
December is the longest list and covers established devices. The Xiaomi MIX Flip is there, along with the Xiaomi 14 Ultra and 14, the 13 Ultra, 13 Pro and 13, and the 14T Pro, 14T, 13T Pro and 13T. The Redmi Note 14 range is included, from the Pro+ 5G down to the Note 14S, as are the Redmi 15 5G, Redmi 15 and Redmi A7 Pro. POCO's December devices are the F6 Pro, F6, X8s, X7, X6 Pro, M8s 5G, M7 and C81 Pro. The tablets are the Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro 12.4, four Redmi Pad 2 variants including the 9.7-inch models, and the POCO Pad C1.
The schedule comes with a caveat. Xiaomi has not given exact release dates, so the month a device appears under is a window rather than a promise. Availability will differ by region, and the rollout is gradual, meaning two owners of the same phone may see the update days or weeks apart.
Not every older device made the list. Xiaomi has cancelled HyperOS 4 for several models, including the Redmi K60 Pro, Redmi Note 13 Pro+, Redmi K70 Pro and POCO X6 5G. Owners of those phones will not receive the update.
The practical advice is simple. Owners of listed devices should check the system update settings from time to time as the deployment moves through the coming weeks. The next thing to watch is whether devices actually arrive within their assigned month, since the schedule offers no firmer commitment than that.
