It looks like Vivo isn't the only Chinese device maker to bring Android 15 to its smartphones outside of China. Xiaomi appears to be the next company to extend Android 15 availability to Xiaomi 14 global units.

The first Xiaomi smartphone to receive Android 15 internationally is the Xiaomi 14. However, there is a small problem. As some of you probably already know, the Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Pro are the only phones from the company to ship with Android 15 out of the box.
However, these Xiaomi 15 phones run on HyperOS 2.0 based on Android 15, while the global Xiaomi 14 gets HyperOS 1.1 based on Android 15. It makes sense that the Chinese and international HyperOS would be different, but in this case it's a bit strange.
According to a new report, Xiaomi 14 users in Europe should look for a new firmware version with build number OS1.1.4.0.VNCEUXM, while the rest of the world is currently receiving a different firmware update, with build number OS1. 1.3.0.VNCMIXM.

As expected, it seems that the changes included in this update are minimal from Xiaomi's side. You get all the new features and improvements that come with Android 15, but there aren't too many HyperOS-related changes listed in the changelog.
