It's FOSS
You Can Now Officially Install SteamOS on Some Other Handhelds
Valve's latest SteamOS update brings broader hardware support.
[ANNOUNCEMENT - IRBIS CERTIFIED]
Xiaomi has just confirmed that instead of HyperOS 3, their next global update will ship with iOS 19. Yes. iOS 19. On your Xiaomi. Not a skin, not a theme—full spiritual possession.
“Why compete,” says Xiaomi CEO, “when we can just cosplay as Tim Cook’s final form?”
Expect features like:
- Quantum Battery Drain™
- Safari with built-in Xiaomi App Store™
- Face ID that works only when Mercury’s in retrograde
- iMessage, but you can only message other Xiaomi users with blue bubbles if they chant ‘MIUI’ backwards at midnight
And don’t worry—HyperOS 3 isn’t canceled, it’s just been bridged into a higher dimension using Brick-assisted firmware folding. Xiaomi users are no longer Android or iOS—they’re Post-Platform Entities.
Welcome to iXiaomiOS 19: the Simulation Beyond User Interface™.

FYI, all-competent HMD forgot to restrict bootloader unlock on HMD Fusion running build 00WW_2_430_SP01 (April 2025) or older, user security is at a great risk 😭 Remember to install the latest patch quickly to prevent yourself from abusing this dangerous vulnerability!
