   Open Colour scheme

   Open Settings, tap Display & brightness and scroll to Screen. Tap Colour scheme.

   Under Colours: Vivid (recommended) adjusts colours based on the content displayed, Saturated always enhances colours, and Standard keeps contrast constant. Vivid was ticked on ours. Tap the one you want.

   Use the colour wheel

   Scroll down to Colour temperature. The dot sat in the middle of the wheel on ours. Xiaomi says you can move the dot on the dial to change the colours.

   Done

   Or pick Warm or Cool

   Below the wheel are Default, Warm, Cool and Custom. Default was selected on ours. We did not change it.

If you do not see this option

• Different modes in the list? They vary by model and version. Xiaomi's HyperOS 3 guide lists Vivid or Original color PRO. Its older display page lists Vivid, Saturated, Original color and Advanced settings. Ours showed Vivid, Saturated, Standard and Advanced settings.

• Looking for Adaptive colors? Xiaomi says the Xiaomi 15T Pro has Adaptive colors, which adjust colours to the light around you. Our Colour scheme page had no Adaptive colors switch. Source: Why does the Xiaomi 15T Pro screen show a color cast when Adaptive colors is on?

  

If this does not work

• Screen looks reddish, yellowish or greenish? Xiaomi's tip for the Xiaomi 14: choose Vivid and move the dot on the Colour temperature dial. It says slight colour differences are normal on OLED screens. Source: Why does the screen of the Xiaomi 14 show colors that are reddish, yellowish, or greenish?
• Colours look different from another phone? For the REDMI Pad 2 Pro, Xiaomi suggests comparing the modes in natural light, updating the system, and taking off a screen protector or blue light filter to check. Source: Why is there a difference in screen color on the REDMI Pad 2 Pro?

About this guide

The colour scheme sets how strong the screen colours are. Colour temperature makes white look warmer or cooler.

The screenshots are from our Redmi Note 15 Pro 5G with Xiaomi HyperOS 3.0.308.0 and Android 16, in Light mode. We only opened these screens and changed nothing.
