Xiaomi founder Lei Jun published an article in major media to officially announce Xiaomi's new operating system - Xiaomi HyperOS. This elimination immediately caused heated discussions, Xiaomi officially clarified that the new system is not miOS, but surging OS.
Xiaomi has already laid out a grand vision to expand its ecosystem to "people, cars and homes full ecology", and Xiaomi The Paper OS will be an important step towards achieving this goal.
In the article, Lei Jun reviewed the development history of Xiaomi, from the birth of MIUI to the huge software team with 1.175 billion cumulative users worldwide. MIUI has always taken user experience as the core and continues to evolve, from the initial 4 common functions to the underlying deep framework of cross-terminal interconnection, Xiaomi has been striving to pursue the most easy-to-use and most user-friendly system experience. However, with the continuous expansion of Xiaomi's smart ecosystem, the operating system branches and protocols required to connect different devices are becoming more and more complex, and the problem of ecological connection barriers has gradually become prominent.
The development of Xiaomi's surging OS was not a hasty move, but after years of preparation. Since 2014, Xiaomi has been conducting exploratory development and verification in the field of IoT. In 2017, they officially launched the development of a new system, aiming to support the whole ecosystem of devices and applications with a system framework. This is Xiaomi's pursuit of the future.
Xiaomi The Paper OS is based on the fusion of deeply evolved Android and self-developed Vela system. It completely rewrites the underlying architecture, preparing for tens of billions of devices and tens of billions of connections in the future, and providing a public foundation for the Internet of Everything. It's a huge and complex project, so Xiaomi engineers named it Xiaomi HyperOS. The first device to carry the Xiaomi Surging OS will be the Mi 14, which will bring a "leapfrog upgrade" experience.
Xiaomi has announced that they will say goodbye to MIUI gradually, but this does not mean that MIUI will be completely eliminated. MIUI will continue to remain in our memory, and The Paper OS will be the core of Xiaomi's future ecosystem. This step is a key step towards a broader future for Xiaomi.
The release of Xiaomi's surging OS represents an important step taken by Xiaomi on the road to building a "full ecology for people and cars". We look forward to seeing how this new operating system drives Xiaomi's ecosystem and brings a better experience for users."
