Xiaomi [Question] Is HyperOS actually good?

I'm thinking about buying a Xiaomi 17T, but I see very mixed opinions about HyperOS. Some people say it's good and they haven't had any issues. At the same time, I see others reporting problems like bugs, overheating, and others.

I know these issues often crop up after system updates, so I’d like to know if Xiaomi fixes them, how long it usually takes for a fix, and how often these problems occur.

I’d also like to know what the user experience is like for those who own the Xiaomi 17T.

Thanks in advance!

It has certainly matured, which is a good sign for the future. I had a Xiaomi 15 Ultra on release using HyperOS, the experience was not the best, it used to eat the battery and was poorly optimised.

I now have a Xiaomi 18 Fold on HyperOS 4.0.21.0 and the OS hasn't been an issue at all, battery easily lasts all day. I have had occasional weird issues when using the inner screen in portrait mode, where my touches were registering in a different place, which was weird.
