The Xiaomi mobile catalog it is tremendously extensive. Every year, the company can launch more than 30 devices (counting the Chinese models), and each of them must receive your own development, updates or improvements over time.
That is why, when the terminals reach a certain age, or more than three years have passed since their launch, Xiaomi decides stop using their resources in development of them, and this is what will happen with 10 of their mobiles in a few months.
It’s time to say goodbye…
Despite the fact that this is a very common practice, and not only by Xiaomi, but by all mobile brands on the market, if you have any of the mobile phones that we are going to mention below, you better go thinking about a successor for your device, since from August, Xiaomi ends its development program.
The 10 devices that will stop receiving development from the company as of August 4 are the following:
- Xiaomi MIX Fold
- Xiaomi Mi MIX 4
- Xiaomi Mi Pad 5, Pad 5 Pro and Pad 5 Pro 5G
- Xiaomi CIVI and CIVI 1S
- Redmi Note 11 Pro and 11 Pro+
- Xiaomi 12X
This means that, starting in August, Xiaomi will stop focusing on future updates for these devices. Of course, you will continue to receive stable and security updates, so you should not confuse the end of the development program with the end of the development program. end of life of your mobile or tablet.
Starting with Android 13, Xiaomi will focus on two versions: the development and the official. For development versions, the devices must be less than a year old, and that is why the company will not offer these updates to the devices we have mentioned.
But do not worry. As we say, most likely yes you can receive MIUI 15 and Android 14 when they reach Xiaomi devices at the end of the year, since phones like the Redmi Note 11 Pro+, which is on the list, have not even met more than a year and a half since its launch.
