Xiaomi launched the Mi 2 in November 2012. It was later followed by the Mi 2s in April 2013. These two devices can be called Xiaomi’s second-generation smartphones. Nearly a decade later, there are still people using these handsets, as per the company’s founder.

A few days back, Lei Jun, the founder, chairman, and CEO of Xiaomi revealed that there are over 2 million active users of the Mi 6. A day later, the executive shared a similar fact about Mi 2 and Mi 2S.

According to his Weibo post, there are more than 184,000 active users of Mi 2 and Mi 2S. This data is fascinating since these devices are not capable of running modern apps.

Unfortunately, it is not known whether this count only includes the units running stock MIUI or both stock ROM as well as custom ROMs. Anyway, it is still a huge number nevertheless.

For comparison, the OnePlus One, which launched more than a year after the debut of Mi 2S, only has over 300 active users. Additionally, the Xiaomi handsets received a longer official software support than the first-ever OnePlus phone.

Anyway, If you are one of those Mi 2 and Mi 2S users, do share your experience with these smartphones in the comment section below.
