If you have a Redmi A4 5G, then go to Settings > About Phone and check. Many users are now seeing the HyperOS 3.0.3.0.WGVINXM (India) update on their phones. Xiaomi started rolling out this update from February 22, 2026. The size is about 4.36 GB, so it is clear that this is not just a minor security patch – it is a full Android 16 based HyperOS 3 upgrade.
Redmi A4 5G HyperOS 3 based February update features
The first thing you notice after installing the update is HyperIsland. Incoming calls, music playing or charging status – these are now displayed in the status bar with small but attractive animations. The home screen also has a slight redesign – new icon style, smoother transitions and a slightly more fluid feel. Multitasking seems a little faster than before, and many have also noticed a slight improvement in battery backup. The February 2026 security patch has been added, which has strengthened system security.
Most of those who have already updated say that the phone is smoother than before. However, there was a slight heating or slight lag for 1-2 hours on the first boot – this is very normal after a major update, this happens when background optimization is running. No major bugs or network issues have been reported so far.
Install Requirements
If you haven’t received the update yet, don’t worry. Xiaomi releases updates in batches in stages. It may take a few days. Use Wi-Fi before updating, keep the battery more than 50%, and backup important data. There is nothing to be afraid of if the first restart takes a while.
Bringing HyperOS 3 to a budget phone like Redmi A4 5G is a really good move. Once you get the update, you can install it and see – the phone will feel a little new.
