Short answer: seven Redmi and POCO phones that run Android 16 are not getting HyperOS 4: the Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G, Note 13 Pro+ 5G, Note 13 Pro 4G, POCO X6 5G, POCO M6 Pro 4G, Redmi K60 Pro and Redmi K70 Pro. HyperOS 3 is their last major update. They keep getting security patches: for the five global models, until January 2028 according to Xiaomi’s own support list.
Official Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G / POCO X6 5G firmware: the latest HyperOS 3 Recovery and Fastboot ROMs for all regions (8), direct from Xiaomi's servers with MD5.
Why these phones miss HyperOS 4
HyperOS 4 is built on Android 17. These seven phones have already received the number of Android upgrades Xiaomi promised for them. The Redmi Note 13 Pro series, for example, launched with Android 13 and is now on Android 16. Xiaomi had been expected to release a HyperOS 4 version on top of Android 16 for them, but according to XimiTime that version has been dropped. No Android 16 device ever entered HyperOS 4 testing, in China or globally.
Xiaomi hasn’t commented. What is official: none of the seven appears in Xiaomi’s global HyperOS 4 schedule for 82 devices, which runs until December 2026.
The seven phones and how long they’re supported
| Phone | Codename | Last major version | Security updates until |
|---|---|---|---|
| Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G / POCO X6 5G | garnet | HyperOS 3, Android 16 | Jan 15, 2028 (POCO X6 5G: Jan 11, 2028) |
| Redmi Note 13 Pro+ 5G | zircon | HyperOS 3, Android 16 | Jan 15, 2028 |
| Redmi Note 13 Pro 4G / POCO M6 Pro 4G | emerald | HyperOS 3, Android 16 | Jan 15, 2028 (POCO M6 Pro: Jan 11, 2028) |
| Redmi K60 Pro | socrates | HyperOS 3, Android 16 (China) | Not listed by Xiaomi |

Support dates: Xiaomi’s security update support list, checked November 10, 2026. Some models share hardware and firmware (garnet = Note 13 Pro 5G and POCO X6 5G, emerald = Note 13 Pro 4G and POCO M6 Pro).
Don’t confuse them with these phones
- POCO X6 Pro (not the X6 5G) is getting HyperOS 4, from December 2026.
- Redmi Note 14S shares the
emeraldcodename with the Note 13 Pro 4G but is on the December HyperOS 4 list. - Redmi Note 14 Pro / Pro+ and POCO F6 / F6 Pro are also on the December list.
What this means if you own one
- Nothing breaks. Your phone stays on HyperOS 3 with Android 16 and keeps receiving security patches until early 2028.
- Keep installing the HyperOS 3 updates. The latest builds came out between August and October 2026. You can find them on our firmware pages: Note 13 Pro 5G / POCO X6 5G, Note 13 Pro+ 5G, Note 13 Pro 4G / POCO M6 Pro.
- Want Android 17 anyway? The only route is a custom ROM, which needs an unlocked bootloader and may break banking apps. Don’t flash a HyperOS 4 ROM from another model: it won’t boot and can brick the phone.
