RAM expansion is a feature that Xiaomi has been offering with new updates for its handsets since 2021 and later for devices of other brands. It utilizes the internal storage for creating SWAP storage space and relieves RAM. The Memory Expansion feature might not work as efficiently as physical memory but it’ll certainly speed up HyperOS.

#2. Block system app ads

HyperOS comes with ads built in, which you would have noticed when you’re running system apps. These ads can result in delays in the UI since they consume system resources. It is pretty easy to block ads that users often criticize and don’t wish to see.

Your Xiaomi handset’s cache can fill up pretty quickly depending on the usage, which can cause your smartphone to freeze or animations to hang. You don’t need to clear the cache using recovery mode, the automatic cache cleaning feature in HyperOS will make it quite convenient for you. The HyperOS feature will clear the cache each time you lock your smartphone’s screen.

#4. Turn off system animations

Turning off system animations is a general speed-up tactic that works for every OEM. You need to ensure that the developer options are turned on and then set the value of the animation scales to 0 or 0.5. Once you do that, the animations will start functioning quicker than before and HyperOS will be sped up.

#5. Keep the internal storage clean

To avoid this issue, you should be keeping the internal storage clean and avoid installing unnecessary applications.
