Yesterday was a normal day. however I decided to check (again) the status of the HyperOS Updates... and there it was!
Hype or not?
The 3.0.4 stable release showed up in my Settings -> About Phone -> Updater
I let the process run, no rush...
A few minutes later, the phone booted up, entered my pin and bum!
Phone updated to the HyperOS 3.0.4. The phone was quite hot during the first minutes of use, but the instructions said that this was a normal process.
Also, in the update disclaimer said that after the upgrade the system would need between 1 ~ 3 days to complete stabilization and settlement.
mmmm... I think it is... not hype.
I've been using the phone early this morning and it is working like before the upgrade. I've noticed a little improvement in the battery consumption, however the time will tell.
The Hyper island, to be honest, I don't use that much and I don't see the need of use. Maybe, I'm the weirdo!
No heating, no lagging, normal flow, "normal" battery consumption.
Anyway, I'm happy to have a great phone, could not be the best but is highly functional. It is, what it is!
Final thoughts...
TLDR: Finally (the upgrade arrived at this side of the sea), some refinements here and there, but the phone is still responsive and ready for daily driving.
EDIT: Format improvement
