Tecno has launched something really special for its users in India. This isn’t just another Android skin, but a complete makeover. Say hello to HiOS 15, the brand’s latest custom UI designed to be faster, more intelligent, and most importantly, deeply rooted in the Indian smartphone experience. It brings major AI upgrades to boost performance and adds meaningful support for local languages.

Tecno HiOS 15 Features 

Smarter Assistant, Local Vibes

HiOS 15 upgrades Tecno’s voice assistant, Ella, and adds support for Hindi, with more Indian languages like Bengali, Tamil, Gujarati, and Marathi on the way. This is possible thanks to a partnership with Sarvam AI, known for its powerful Indian language models.

With the new upgrade, Ella is now more than just a chatbot. It can handle real-time call translations, generate AI summaries, offer smart auto-answer, and even suppress background noise during calls. All of this is tailored for Indian users who juggle between languages every day.

Performance Tweaks That Actually Matter

HiOS 15 also focuses on performance upgrades, as Tecno has reduced pre-installed apps by 40%, reworked the animation engine, and added useful features like MemFusion 3.0 to boost multitasking. All of this is aimed at improving the user experience, making navigation and everyday usage smoother.

Boosted Privacy with AI 

With privacy becoming more and more important in this digital age, Tecno has introduced new tools to take user protection to the next level. One of these is Blank Data, which sends dummy information to apps, and another is AI Screenshot, which automatically blurs sensitive info like OTPs or contact names to prevent accidental leaks.

Fresh UI and AI Photo Tools

HiOS 15 also introduces new features for AI photography. There are tools like AI Eraser 2.0 to remove photobombers, Image Extender to expand your pics beyond the frame, and AI Sharpness Plus to enhance detail. The best part is that all of these features can be used without an internet connection. There’s also an AI wallpaper generator and Vogue Portrait mode to provide additional customisation.

The UI also has got more polished with a redesigned control panel, Picture-in-Picture mode, and smoother transitions throughout. The best is that Tecno’s going light on bloatware and also gives better optimisations.
