Xiaomi has an EOS (End of Support) smartphone list on its website. The company updates this list with newer devices in a timely fashion.
Recently, the company updated this list with three popular budget phones from 2020. These handsets will no longer receive software updates going forward.
The below-listed are the latest Xiaomi smartphones to reach their end of life.
All of these products were released in 2020. They debuted with MIUI 11 based on Android 10.
Throughout their life, these devices received two major MIUI and Android updates. Therefore, they currently boot MIUI 13 based on Android 12.
This means the software on board these handsets is about 2 years old now. However, they are able to perform normally as they can run almost all Android applications without any issues.
So users need not worry about upgrading to a newer phone unless they want better hardware or 5G connectivity. However, they should keep in mind that there won’t be any security updates, except for something critical (very rare).
The aforementioned smartphones are some of the best of their time. Xiaomi sold millions of them across the world. So you will probably continue seeing them in public despite them reaching their end of support.
Do you own any of these devices? If so, share your experience with us in the comment section below or on our official social media handles.
