The leak that comes from China

During a demonstration in the factory, the Chinese Leaker DCS anticipated some information on the new system, highlighting the presence of a control center and a set of icons that are clearly inspired by Liquid Glass (and it is no coincidence that they seem to call closely what we have already glimpsed with iOS 26 and the operating systems of Apple devices). The design seems to give great priority to usability, without however neglecting visual quality, with better readability compared to the similar efforts made by competitors, such as Apple.

“A few days ago I went to the factory to try a new version of the device – It reads in the Leaker’s statements – And, by the way, I also tried the first version of the operating system. The control center and the icons have a little a liquid glass style, but it is not as radical as iOS and it is much more legible “.

In this sense, we must admit that Not everyone thinks so “soft” as DCS And that on the web there are many opinions of those who instead speak of a much deeper and larger inspiration of the style adopted by Apple in iOS, so much so as to rename Hyperos 3 such as Hyperos 26, in clear reference to the number of the new version of the Cupertino operating system.

The new interface

That said, we also remember that previous analyzes indicated the intention by Xiaomi of extend the Liquid Glass design language to all its main system applicationsthus guaranteeing a more cohesive and organic interface. Therefore, for most of its devices it is very likely that the Chinese company will move in the implementation of these changes with optimized user interface elements.

In short, also in this area there is a good separation line between what Xiaomi is doing and how much in use by most competitors, who sometimes sin of visual consistency, instead presenting a graphic fragmentation between the various applications.

Not only that. Even if the attention is now focused on the next top of the range devices that will include this novelty, Xiaomi should confirm this approach also on the cheaper devices, thus making the new brand operating system accessible to a much wider audience.

When Hyperos 3 will be made available

According to the latest rumors, it is likely that Hyperos 3 can be launched together with the series Xiaomi 16 in October, in line with the planning program of this generation of the company’s devices.

The timing is certainly not accidental and much more than some analyst has not been able to do without remembering that in recent weeks – on the occasion of the WWDC 2025 – Apple has made a similar move, revealing to the public the language of design Liquid Glass and promising that the new graphics that will characterize its own operating systems Mobile and desktop will be released for autumn.
