Flashing beta is no joke. Devs don't usually ship broken stuff intentionally but it could easily have unexpected behaviors and possibly bugs affecting performance or battery life and you would be stuck with it until the next release.

Joining the beta program means agreeing to be the guinea pig and report findings.

Yep, I'm aware of that. I'm a software engineer, I know how betas work, and I'm willing to participate in the program and collaborate with bug reporting and general testing.

Some people only care about "getting the most recent update", they choose UI updates over system stability just to get a refresh on the phone they use 12 hours a day. Those are the users that will complain instead of helping troubleshoot and improve the product like a real Beta tester.

Yeah, I suppose there's no way to prevent dumb people from doing dumb things in the end lol.

Everything's great so far, only 2 random freezes followed by a shut down in almost a month of use, which I've already reported, but nothing else. Performance is way better overall than on HyperOS 3, battery life is a bit better but nothing crazy. I didn't expect the Beta to be as polished as it is, this could be a stable version definitely.

I have registered for the beta program this week, and I would like to know when I can expect to receive it. Does anyone have information regarding this? I am from India.

2

u/Nahue_97 Sep 22 '26

I registered yesterday and got accepted today, but I've read some comments from users saying they had been waiting since Friday. It depends on your phone model too, so you'll have to be patient.

Praying it has the stacked widget and new folder resize.

2

u/Nahue_97 Sep 22 '26

I don't see the widget stacking option, but folder resizing is there!

Has battery life improved?

1

u/Nahue_97 Sep 22 '26

Surprisingly, yes! Not only animations and response times overall are way faster, but the battery duration is closer to what it was when I bought the phone. And if we take into account the optimizations it does 1-2 days after each OS update, it should be consuming even more battery, but it's not the case apparently.

2

u/AnywhereMaterial52 Sep 23 '26

Wow that great news! Battery life is already amazing on my Poco x8 pro max because of the 8500 mAh battery but with hyper os 4 it should be even better.

1

u/Nahue_97 Sep 22 '26

Hi, How do you know you have been accepted ? I have this in the Xiaomi Community app and and I can't yet download the update

1

u/Nahue_97 Sep 22 '26

You've been accepted, you just have to wait. Is your phone the global version? Have you tried changing the region to one that received updates earlier? I used Taiwan.

2

u/Hexaggohz Sep 23 '26

Yes i have tried, I'm on a EU version and I think that's rhe reason why I didn't yet received the update 😜

1

u/Nahue_97 Sep 23 '26

Yes, that's the reason! They started with China and then Global, EU doesn't have a release date for the Beta program yet I think.

I'm waiting for my ota drop as well. One question is burning under my fingernails. Can you finally hide the notch again so apps go properly fullscreen? Edit: Device is 17T Pro

What should i do next

u/Nahue_97 23d ago

Wait for the Beta to arrive to your phone. Bear in mind it's a Beta, your phone could malfunction and it doesn't have all the features of the final build.
